Usually I don't post things older than the late Palaeolithic period, but #insects embedded in amber never cease to amaze me - the sheer age!

This ant preserved in its finest detail is some 50-million-year old.

Found in Gujarat, India.

@bojacobs I am all in favor of sending trump to the moon. His expertise as a developer is needed there. So much to develop. Biggest development potential ever. And musk. His technical genius is essential to make this a success. They should start on the backside of the moon.

California D party governor candidates, please get a clue!!!! All but two you you need to drop out immediately else the R's will sweep the jungle primary and move to the General election and there won't be a single D candidate on the November ballot.

Pick straws, roll dice, arm wrestle, do a dance off - just do *something* to winnow you down to two.

And do it NOW - by this weekend.
