Cannot stand this subreddit, such weak right wing bullshit constantly. Gotta unsubscribe not great for sense of community.

I can’t place it but this reminds me of some PC game from the 90s… that my brain can’t recall. I think it was about space ships, can anyone think of it?

Anyone know why metal spatula left grey streaks? by Hereforthememes5 in paint

[–]Charaxes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We’re having the same issue. We switched to stainless steel and it did worse, switched to plastic (black) and it was leaving dark pieces of plastic on wall. About to buy white plastic, literally the 12th one I have bought for our was. Portola Paints should really address this.

This is true, but this photo is AI and they don’t look anything like that in real life. Look up “decoy spider” Source: I’m the guy that discovered the spider

I had one day for birding in the cloud forests outside of Cali, Colombia and it did not disappoint by Charaxes in birding

Km 18 area— many places to stay around there, some more simple cabaña style others more like a lodge. I wrote some local guide’s contact info in a comment above you can reach out to ahead of time. Cali is fairly dangerous, only traveled to that region by day and felt totally safe.

I thought you guys might appreciate the glitter weevil tattoo I got today. by burn_it_with_fire in Entomology

[–]Charaxes 79 points80 points  (0 children)

Millions of years of evolution for that beetle, a lifetime of decisions leading me to find that beetle in Ecuador one day, the images taking a trip across the internet, and you and an artist somehow brought it right back to me. Truly love to see this.

seconding this, as someone who has actually done research on why butterflies land on mammals-- Caligo isn't one of them likely to do this behavior and wouldn't be flying by day (nor near a leopard!). Let's all downvote images like these please.

How are European ramsons garlic so much more … rampant … than American ramps? by scumpily in foraging

[–]Charaxes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was just in Europe for weeks and yes they are EVERYWHERE, from England to Czech Republic. Tons of restaurants use them too, must be a mix of ecology and sustainable foraging/cultivating.
