But according to your post, you were in his band in 78.

Welp due to overwhelming demand (=one[1] nudge from the inimitable @jopabinia.bsky.social) I'm making an informational comic about dicyemids #invertefest 🦑🌊
I do not know how long it will take to finish, so please enjoy the heck out of this title page for now

Dear god let this man cook.

David Johansen, the last Doll standing, is gone. We devote a show to him this week, because how could we not? Let me count the ways: bit.ly/3DStmxf

Watching barnacles sweep the ocean for food is so mesmerizing. They look like eyelashes opening and closing. I could watch this for hours. #barnacles #intertidal #marinelife 🦑

I can't not love anything with a hog sucker on it! And those coelacanths! Gotta get one.

Redhorse ID can be confusing, even for professionals, so I made these cheatsheets (in 2011!). They have since been used by state agencies, labs, and many anglers. PDF downloads aren't working on my site, so here they are as images. Share wherever it might be useful. #redhorse #nativefish #fishing

I was doing the same thing half a mile away, with the same cranes. But no flower and no eagle. I did cut down two trees, though.

UPDATE: @garlab.bsky.social is making good progress👍

The Sicklefin Redhorse description came out today as Moxostoma ugidatli. I might have led it to completion, but it is really Bob Jenkins’ legacy and done in honor of the Cherokee who really discovered it. Https://doi.org/10.1643/i2024049.

What a great story! The introduction alone is well worth reading.

Oh, I know! Been checking the journal's site daily for the official publication for a couple months.

We CT scanned thousands of vertebrates from US natural history collections and made them freely available. Countless people have used the data for research (>200 pubs) and to learn anatomy/morphology.

A few gar/cicada prints (4 or 5) left. If you're in IL/WI/MN/IA, in person delivery may be possible. $10 off for that, so $70. Here are a couple shots I've received from people who already got theirs framed. If you want one, message me. Don't use etsy if you want the discount. #gar #fishart #cicada

I've built a machine that can be Confidently Wrong. It can also make pictures that all look a bit the same, as well as make a video of you kissing any celebrity or person you know. In payment, I'd like to boil the world's oceans dry, & steal all literature. For some reason, my head is not on a spike

For those wondering, I received the ring from this little guy…seemed harmless enough…

BABY Alligator Gar!

At less than one inch long and two weeks old, these future river monsters already breathe air. Watch as one takes a little gulp (and tiny bubble burp)!

Yes, these are the same fish that can grow over 8 feet long and over 300 pounds!

Are there more fish in its future?

I was definitely confused.

There are some disability things that make winter tough for me but I also love being able to nightlight earlier in the evenings and I love the deeper critters the winter storms pull into the Salish Sea! We get feather boa cydippids and gossamer worms and sea angels and baby octopus… 🐙🦑🌿
