Happy third night of Hanukkah! Visiting Ms. Shrew also means visiting darling Dot.

Hey. Your brain needs to de-frag. Literally it needs you to sit there and space out.

If you want your memory or executive function to improve, stare out a window at the skyline or sidewalk or trees or birds on the electrical wires for like 20+ minutes per day. (With no other stimulation like a podcast or TV if you can manage but hey baby steps innit). If you're fortunate enough to have safe outside with any bits of nature, go stare closely at a 1 meter square of grass and trip out on the bugs and shapes of grasses and stuff.

Literally this will make you smarter. Our brains HAVE TO HAVE this zone out time to do important stuff behind the scenes. This does not happen during sleep, it's something else.

That weird pressurized feeling you get sometimes might be your brain on no defrag.

Give your brain a Daily Dose Of De-Frag.

Mountain Yellow Legged Frogs, endemic to alpine lakes in the Sierra Nevada, are severely impacted by the chytrid fungus and other threats. Unfortunately, not a lot of people know about MYLFs so I was hoping to create a t shirt design to spread MYLF awareness and hopefully help save these fascinating creatures. For some reason the gift shop says they won’t sell this, though.

The other adorable millies who arrived last week: Spirostreptida sp. ‘Gorontalo’. A little larger than the Centrobolus, but still one of the mid-sized species.
