Did u know? If you see a larva in a place where it might get trodden on, please get a twig or a leaf & pop it in a safe place, away from clodhoppers. Think this is a Gypsy moth caterpillar - when they are looking to pupate, they can break cover & end up squished.Thnks a lot. ☺️🐛 🌿🌱🪲🐙

Look. I can't tell you what to do but I'm telling you to watch this. At least 70% of people we passed today smiled.

SCOOTIE!! 🤯 😅 Some birds are known for doing this - reducing pests and parasites by laying down, wings spread out, tail and head on the ground. The key is that the ground, in this case small gravel, needs to be hot. This ‘bakes out’ the pests from the feathers. I’ve seen previous ‘runners do it 🪶

A French guy family name was"Monsieur". So whenever somebody asked his name, they wouldn't believe him because he was literally "monsieur Monsier"

I made this Pride flag using only NASA images and our team thought it would be cool to share on social (I work on the NASA heliophysics communications team), but it's getting all sorts of hate on the bird app and Fbook. Thought y'all might be more appreciative of it here. ☺️🏳️‍🌈💖

It's not harmless. It's not "just an innocent thing" to be fooled by AI. You NEED to be able to discern and differentiate reality. You NEED to know how the world works on a basic level. Because fooling you with baby animals and flowers is just the start of something much worse.
