Found this little friend hitching a ride in Lunta’s butt fluff this week. Took ‘em outside and they agreed to a photo after exploring my hand for a few turns.

iSeek says some kind of Meconema, maybe?

Close-up of a tiny green cricket-like insect on a person's finger knuckle. Nothing’s really in focus, but it’s clear that the little critter’s antennae are several times longer than its body. Its body is about 2mm long, bright-light-green, and semi-translucent.

As #Hoppers go, #Hopper2 is probably my favorite #Hopper of all.

It gets more impressive as you go down the rabbit hole.

I am totally #Stoke (ed)

Get a room, you two!

My other half sent this pic to me. He's so romantic! 🥰😁

caught some MAJOR drama on the milkweed today. i was trying to take a picture of this cute ass candy striped leaf hopper and then BAM! ant! hahaha i thought it was cool that i caught this little interaction. macro is so fun

#bugs #insects #ants #versus #hoppers

a black ant steps off the main stem of a milkweed plant onto a leaf in the foreground. one leg still on the stem she looks around. but she is not alone on the leaf, no there’s a bright red, blue, and yellow leaf hopper already there in the background.

continuing...she approaches the leaf hopper head on. they are face to face now.


continuing...she rears up over the head of the hopper and looks as if she is biting its neck! is she trying to eat the hopper? just telling it to fuck off??


continuing...well either way, the end result was the hopper hopping away very quickly! now she is seen in blurred motion, running after the hopper as if to say "and stay out!!"

AND IN OTHER NEWS: War, Hope, and Creativity

1. An investigation of the organisation "The Azerbaijanis Congress of Sweden", which offered me to join them to Azerbaijan in the summer. They said it was cancelled when I asked critical questions.

Over the past month, a very public story has made waves in the Swedish press regarding journalistic ethics and how close they get to their subjects. While much of it has transpired in Swedish, the thread linked above is an English summary of what’s been happening. Sweden has strict rules about paid junkets, and in joining a journalist's union one must agree to not accepting paid trips. Paid trips and other forms of “caviar diplomacy”, however, is something Azerbaijan is quite infamous for, and this particular investigation grew out of an invitation extended to independent journalist Rasmus Canbäck, which was quickly rescinded when he began asking questions. The scandal continued to grow and even reached the Chairman of the Publicist Club in Southern Sweden Agneta Nordin, who had to resign from her position when it was discovered she too had accepted Azerbaijan’s offer. A reminder of what Armenia is up against when it comes to getting a fair shake in the press. Those journalists who accepted paid trips have been banned by the Swedish public media services from reporting on Azerbaijan.

#Armenia has just been elected to the Executive Board of @UNESCO, with the highest number of votes within our regional group! <https://t.co/Ax5SPvLO5D>

-- Sophia Margaryan (@Sophiasimonyan) November 17, 2021

In an indirectly related story, Armenia was elected for the first time as a member of the UNESCO Executive Board for the period 2021-2025, which is particularly relevant as it is the organization which oversees cultural heritage and has been called upon to investigate endangered and destroyed Armenian sites. Also elected however? Azerbaijan, which was also a member in the period 2005-2009. UNESCO has a controversial history when it comes to Armenia, as shortly after Azerbaijan’s election in 2005 the destruction of the historic Jugha Cemetery was exposed, yet the organization failed to act or even condemn it. Perhaps it was a coincidence that First Lady of Azerbaijan Mehriban Aliyev was named a UNESCO Goodwill Ambassador the year before, a position she still holds. In addition, UNESCO’s Director-General Irina Bokova (2009-2017) had a particularly close relationship with Azerbaijan’s ruling family. Her husband Kalin Mitrev was exposed as a recipient of over $468,000 from the infamous “Azerbaijani Laundromat”. Armenia’s tenure on the executive board will no doubt be an interesting one.

Following Nov 16 fighting, worst since the end of 2nd #Karabakh war last year, #Azerbaijan captured at least 13 Armenian soldiers. Scores of videos on social media show Azerbaijani forces subjecting POWs to cruel & degrading treatment in custody. Abusing POWs is a war crime. pic.twitter.com/IQurxa5ykR

Armenians everywhere had a moment of serious deja vu this month when according to reports Azerbaijani forces moved into Armenian territory in Syunik. Social media once again played a role, not just in the information war but in attempts at demoralization, as harrowing videos of new Armenian POWs being abused were widely shared from the front lines. It is believed a total of 32 soldiers were taken prisoner during the November 16 fighting.

3rd from right on top row is Gurgen Sargsyan, Gugo.

According to reports on Tuesday he died in Syunik during the Azerbaijani incursion.
His squad’s position was overrun and he detonated a grenade.

Just like last year, the names and faces of the dead also came across our social media feeds. The small country that it is, it is not rare for someone to find a personal connection to those affected. As this tweet reflected, "War doesn't leave anything untouched".

When walking in #Stepanakert year after the war you may even not see any signs of recent war. The city is almost recovered.
But being attentive you can see some obvious remnants of war transformed into ordinary things,such as this part of Rocket transformed into a flower -bowl. pic.twitter.com/RhxzRP83Jj

Despite the destruction and attempts at demoralization, social media also brings us images of hope.

TUMO announces that Kapan's historic train station building will be renovated to be their new centre in the city that will be opening in the coming years. <https://t.co/SFwL2J4R7t> <https://t.co/bqDhh62EA9>

-- Նժդեհ Ծատուրյան (@tsaturyannjdeh) December 1, 2021

Another case of repurposing, the Kapan train station will be a new TUMO Center for the Creative Technologies. It’s been a big month for TUMO news, as they also announced a new branch will be opening in Ukraine while Chancellor Angela Merkel visited the one in Berlin.

Speaking of creativity, this question from Alexis Ohanian brought quite a few innovative artists to our attention:

Who are your favorite Armenian digital artists?

-- Alexis Ohanian 7⃣7⃣6⃣ (@alexisohanian) November 23, 2021

One which got our attention in particular was digital artist Artin Ghokasiyan’s HOPPERS series, which are being auctioned as NFTs. Some replied with their surprise that “Shakkablood” was Armenian.

I think people missed this but I snuck in our armenian flag into one of the Hopper pieces. Peep the arm pic.twitter.com/eHCb4gqDBY

-- SHAKKABLOOD (@shakkablood) November 23, 2021

Speaking of creative Armenians, Ohanian also posted a flashback to his visit three years ago to the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Armenia! exhibition, which explored 14 centuries worth of Armenian art and culture with its curator Dr. Helen Evans.

3 years ago today we were touring a special #Armenian exhibition at @metmuseum@OlympiaOhanian won't remember this, but we got to see some of the great treasures of our culture (with an excellent guide, too, who curated the collection!) pic.twitter.com/cwG5Nfx9NG
