i think a lot of the things that were on display are going to move to other parts of the museum with refreshed interpretation, so it’s not all gone forever. but i also just liked the general graphic design of the exhibit. the logo still goes really hard

Sar@sarr· Jun 25

is polar world deeply othering to arctic peoples and is it generally good that it's getting retired? yes. did i also want a chance to say goodbye to Big Walrus and the sick 80s exhibit design? also yes

when i am old and senile, instead of a dementia village please send me to live at the FBI Cyberattack Simulation City

two middle class homes with their porch lights on, cutting through uncanny exterior lighting - the weird lighting is because they are INSIDE A WAREHOUSE

a street corner with a gas station called "Saturn V Fuel" next to "Rocket City Auto". you can see the warehouse ceiling above

a sparsely stocked grocery store. there is a bitcoin ATM next to the checkout counter

gold digital watch with a blue face and a yellow Pitt football helmet. it reads "University of Pittsburg" at the top. The blue on the face is absolutely the wrong shade.

everybody’s talking about DoorDash but nobody’s talking about TrainCrawl (it’s when your Amtrak is 13 hours late and they give everyone free half-sandwiches from Panera to apologize)

the wikipedia entry pic for Argos was enough to bring me to tears yesterday. we can't keep doing this!

Odysseus and Argos reunite from Thirty More Famous Stories Retold by James Baldwin (1905). Argos, a bag of bones, is giving Odysseus the deepest, saddest hound dog look

hey girl… uhm… did you know… that leafhoppers have four malpighian tubules for the production of brochosomes 😳😳😳 [🐝]

small brown constricted leafhopper on a blade of grass. it has a whitish-blue patch on its wing which i think might be *brochosomes*

a big green leafhopper on a leaf, facing the camera. they kind of remind me of kermit the frog

[mystical spider noises] [🐝]

macro shot of a blueish jumping spider on a blade of grass. it's seen from behind and has its two front legs up like it's doing something wizardly

macro shot of same spider from the front so you can see its beady little spider eyes. unfortunately not as in-focus as the other one.

you can only call band promotion a psyop if the US government is backmasking military recruitment slogans

TRUE! His grave was not even marked until 1975. I wish his story had a happier ending, he's kind of the Van Gogh of baseball
