No, I still don't think it's unreasonable, when people have gone on record saying the President wants to shoot protesters, to remind soldiers that they are obligated to not do that.

In somewhat good news, today the state department website has changed the answer to this question to defer to ICAO policy. Sources still tell me that there is some appetite for invalidation/reversion of passports issued under the injunction, but this message will be welcome to many trans people.

Always exciting to find a class of arthropods I didn't know existed living in my yard-a quasi-centipede of class Symphyla, genus Hanseniella seen in dirt under a brick.

I don't usually spend time photographing ants, not because they aren't cool but because they hardly ever stop moving!
This one (I think Camponatus subbarbatus) was tending aphids (sp?) on burnweed (Erechtites hieraciifolius), and I managed decent shots of both. #bugsky #inverts #macrophotography

Happy #flyday! Here is an eight-spotted tumbling flower beetle, Hoshihananomia octopunctata from July of this year.
If you look closely you can see I caught it excreting out a little clear ball. Don’t know if that is waste or a waxy secretion it will spread on its body.
