Not all flower visitors are equally helpful to the flower; separately tracking bees that buzz to release pollen and bees that steal pollen from flowers in a bunch of Chamaecrista species shows how tracking visitation alone would misrepresent the interactions

Another threat to reefs: Microplastic chemicals may harm coral reproduction
As the sliver of a new moon shines over Kāneʻohe Bay, Oʻahu, millions of tiny orbs ascend from a reef and swirl in the water column. These spheres are bundles of coral eggs and sperm responding to lunar cycles and chemical cues in the water that tell them when to fertilize and where to settle […]

I just bought Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis on Good Old Games for less than 3 bucks. I have never played it. It's 33 years old by now...
#scummvm #gog #LucasArts

In-game screenshot of Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis. It shows the inside of a temple with beige stone walls and stone floor in a pixelized art style. Three people are standing in the room (Indiana Jones in brown leather clothing, a woman with long red hair wearing blue trousers and another man wearing a tropical explorer outfit). The bottom quarter of the screen is filled with activity verbs like give, open, push or pull as well as items the player has collected. A magazine and Indy's…

Ten years later, it appears to me that the NYT still needs to hire better headline writers. These words aren't even exact homophones!

This awesome t-shirt caused me to rewatch the #DaftPunk anime saga. I thought there were only 4 music videos but there are in fact many more (not for any hit singles though). Another tiny easter egg is the short drummer's back story: He's supposed to be from my home town Munich! So of course he likes beer :)

Still frame from Daft Punk's music video for Crescendolls. It shows the face of a man in the style of Japanese anime. He has rather long brown hair and purple round glasses. Information about him is shown: his name is Baryl (drums), age 20, born in Munich. Loves: boxing, beer and horror movies. Hates: ice skating.

Content warning: Cooking & food

Just finished round 1 of #Thanksgiving cooking.
I have extremely mixed feelings these days about a holiday founded on genocide (seriously, official Thanksgiving #1 was "hooray we killed these natives, let's celebrate" which is deeply ironic/horrific given that the whitewashed origin story also did happen years earlier). But I'm a big fan of cooking and feasting, so that's what I focus on.
I'm vegetarian so no turkey.
I made "chiraji sushi" in my heavily bastardized personal style, as well as vegetarian stuffing. Both were pretty successful, although I truly regret forgetting to put nuts in the stuffing. I ended up using "smoky chipotle" flavor "better than bouillon" for the stuffing soup base, which pairs surprisingly well with the chopped persimmons. I tried doing microwave -> pan fry -> bake for the potatoes and carrots, and while they turned out good, they weren't as amazing as I'd hoped for.
The sushi (with stir-fried carrots, onions, mushrooms, and peas, plus fried tofu chunks and fresh cucumber and canned corn) turned out excellent.
Now I just need to decide what to have thirds of.

WTF this straight to VHS B-movie I've just found on Amazon starts out pretty awesome:
1. narrator introduces a backstory that is blatantly ripped from Mad Max (1979)
2. this shot
#MovieNight

The front of a truck as seen from a camera that is mounted on the truck's hood. The background is a desert landscape with large rocks and a dusty road. The movie's title is superimposed in huge capital letters: battletruck. The truck itself looks like steel plates were attached to it to turn it into a tank and there are 4 bright spotlights on top of it even though it's daytime.
