This sunset ombre winged beaut can be spotted in South Africa dragging paralyzed rain spiders down into the nests she's dug. It can be quite the impressive (or freaky, depending on perspective) sight, as these spiders are often larger than she is. All that juicy spider protein is needed though if her babies are ever going to grow up big and strong like her.

“Because the truth is, tech doesn’t have an image problem. It doesn’t have a message problem. It has an intention problem. What’s wrong with the axe murderer who broke into my house is not that he hasn’t successfully persuaded me to buy into his narrative. What’s wrong is that he’s trying to kill me with an axe. Similarly, when you launch a product that’s designed to put millions of people out of work, block access to sources of verifiable truth, replace human creativity with slop, and lower the barriers to every sort of atrocity, the problem isn’t that you haven’t told the public a good story about those things. The problem is that you are trying to do them.”

Today's worm, Ramisyllis kingghidorahi is one of a few rare branching annelids! Yes, its body actually branches and it has multiple butts! The worm itself lives inside sponges, but the branching parts can grow eyes, detach and swim away to reproduce. This species was only described in 2022.
