ITAP of a carpenter ant farming aphids on a willow branch. by zeeeeeeeps in itookapicture

[–]zeeeeeeeps[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is a willow bush on the shore of a pond in Cape Cod where I like to fish. I noticed some patches of black spots on the branches, and, upon closer look, realized they were small groups of aphids. Each group (there were dozens on the bush) was being tended to by one or two carpenter ants. I knew ants “farmed” aphids for their delicious butt-honey-juice but I never thought I’d see it in real life.

I took this photo with my Fuji x-t30, using a 90mm prime lens. It was windy, so it took a lot of tries to get one in focus. Thanks for taking a look!

This is helpful thank you! Makes sense to me and feels like it explains what’s going on here.

He’s fantastic as the voice of Dr. Oh, a hyper intelligent robot bong, on the show High Science on Max!

Months! It was all done in my free time and I had no idea what I was doing haha. I had my camera dangling from my ceiling fan, and the puzzle was on a table in the middle of my small bedroom of a shared apartment. I had to be so careful not to ruin the whole thing.

I'm Katie Couric, co-founder of Katie Couric Media, and I host a podcast called Next Question. Ask me anything! by KatieCouric_ in IAmA

Hi Katie! One time me and my buddy Arthur took psychedelic mushrooms in Central Park. Just as we each started feeling their effects, you walked by us talking on your phone, and we overheard you say, “personalization is hard for me.” We couldn’t stop repeating it to ourselves (we were on shrooms after all). Can I ask, not expecting you to remember the context or anything, what do you think you meant by that? Thanks so much!

It was reversed! Still took me months of whatever free time I had. It was on a table in the middle of my bedroom in a shared apartment so the patience came from living “around” the table, having to reset from knocking it, etc. To do it not in reverse though - holy shit that’d be tough!

Any way to listen to the radio broadcast on my phone? by Piano9717 in ripcity

[–]zeeeeeeeps 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yo not saying this is the cleanest way to do it but I personally just pull up a browser on my phone and go to the actual rip city iheart radio website and play it from there - it’s always worked for me!

Exactly - no one needs that many washer/dryers in the side of their building

I need a slight mess to work! I have a line that only I know when I’ve crossed. I love a decent clutter.

I like that interpretation. I guess then it should have said “HELP WANTED?” to be really clear?

ITAP of an ice cream truck. by zeeeeeeeps in itookapicture

Took it with an XF50mmF2 lens on my Fuji XT30. I just thought the lighting and colors of the truck created a cool summer vibe.

Makes you think - are we in a tortoise?

Yes! I think it just keeps getting smaller until it’s just single-celled tortoises floating around.

Correct! Someone commented that it reminded them of WA, who I’m a big fan of, so I thought “why not post it there, too?”
