Let me put it in language that they can understand: The Spartans were not GOATed at war.
They weren't even S-tier.
They were barely even mid.🤡
If learning this causes your entire worldview to collapse? Then your worldview was based on a lie.

@ikhider There will be, if someone helps us to make it! We're a volunteer-driven project, with very limited resources. We'd love a more featureful mobile app too, but it can only happen if people help us, or fund developers 😊
@libreoffice My understanding is that funding will not go for mobile development as it is considered 'low priority', even if there a crowdfund specific for this.

One of the first ant species to be formally described, by Linneaus himself in 1758, is Formica fusca. I finally got a photograph of one last week in Frankfurt.

Description of a new species of Ceruchus MacLeay (Coleoptera, Lucanidae), with taxonomic notes on the Chinese species of the genus
The generic characters of the stag beetle genus Ceruchus MacLeay are comprehensively reviewed and refined based on the examination of type material of most Chinese species. In this study, one new species, Ceruchus ahualuo Huang, Liu & Wan, sp. nov. is described and illustrated from Yunnan, China. In addition, an updated diagnostic key to all known Chinese species of Ceruchus is provided, together with a distribution map of the genus in China.

Do you know what a micro-influencer or nano-influencer is?
@Elizafox Well, and the representation-space.
@Photo55 here’s another characterisation of the Nepal glacier collapse.
I’ve seen plenty from the BBC on the human tragedy. That’s as it should be. I’ve seen very little talk from mainstream news about what it portends
@urlyman
The Economist has
"Asia Bulletin newsletter: Lessons from the flash flood in NepalGeoff Carr, senior editor, considers how to best prevent the harm caused by glacial avalanches"
4 minute read.
I find them good at reporting, and an angle on analysis.
My other mainstream is the Grauniad.
