How about some spiky spiders tonight? This one is Micrathena acuta, a spiny orbweaver found in the Ecuadorian Amazon rainforest. It is believed that the spines serve as a defense from birds and even predatory wasps.
Cuyabeno Reserve, 2024

A spider with an orangish-gold cephalothorax and a pale colored abdomen with two large spines sticks out in opposite directions from the abdomen. The spider is sitting on a leaf.

Out on my litter picking duties yesterday…
Two chaps out walking, prob late 20’s, said ‘hey bro how’s it going’? Great, thanks I said…a nod.
Later, couple with dog, chap said ‘hey mate, are you a volunteer’? No, I said, I get paid by Forest England, to keep things tidy. Oh mate, nice!
Mate! Bro!

The body of evidence showing that when centrist parties adopt the priorities and talking points of the far right, they torpedo themselves is vast and powerful. Yet Keir Starmer's Labour Party seems determined to ignore it.
A few examples in 🧵:

How should Labour and the Tories respond to the populist right? Lessons from Europe

The evidence suggests traditional parties that ape the populist radical right’s policies risk boosting their rivals instead of reclaiming voters.
