she jack my pine (P. banksiana) till my serotinous cone's sealing resin melts at 50°C (122°F) allowing my seeds to disperse and colonize shortly following a stand-clearing fire (Larsen & MacDonald 1998).

Heads up, big eel news coming your way:

World Eel Day 2024 will be on May 17th!

Last year, I created the 2023 poster for the World Eel Day campaign. To my surprise, they asked me to come back for this year's one, too! You can watch my process videos (it's a big gouache painting!) over here for part one, and in part two I explain what World Eel Day is and how you can take part! It's rEELy easy!

feeling blue

god i love the blue catfish so much. kind of a terrifying superpredator honestly. they like living in muddy water so their eyesight is dogshit, but they've got these huge barbels around their face to feel around, and their whole body is covered in almost two hundred thousand tastebuds to figure out exactly where their prey is, and they've got a special adipose fin to be extra tuned-in to water currents/pressure, and they have super keen senses of hearing at really low AND high frequencies, and they ALSO have a deeply forked tail to decrease drag so they can just cruise around and gulp down literally whatever they want, including other catfish, even in like zero-visibility water where every other animal is basically blind. and they get so fucking stupid huge with this technique that nothing can grab them because they're as big as a person. and if an eagle or something does grab one before it's gotten big enough to be eagle-proof, the catfish has fucking POISON KNIVES on its fins to not only stab things but also envenomate them in the process

you may not like it, but THIS is what peak performance looks like

Audiobooks don't count as reading. Neither do e-books. Or printed books.

You haven't *really* read a book unless it was tattooed on the entrails of a one-eyed goat under the full moon during the winter solstice. While wearing a piece of rutabaga on your head.
