I've spent the past couple of weeks in Fife, Scotland. It's glorious.

I took comparison photos of seventeen different Tradescantia zebrina cultivars in different growing conditions, to show how much they vary!

Full descriptions are on the website: https://tradescantia.uk/article/types-of-zebrina/

A list (with pictures) of all the ancient #Egyptian #Pyramid capstones that are known. Quite a few survived till the modern day.

Contrary to popular belief they don't appear to be gold but rather stone.

Yes! “The world is shifting towards a superheated climate not seen in the past 1m years, prior to human existence, because “we are damned fools” for not acting upon warnings over the climate crisis, according to James Hansen, the US scientist who alerted the world to the greenhouse effect in the 1980s.”

If you have #dyslexia , do alternative fonts in apps help with the reading experience?

If yes, are Atkinson Hyperlegible or OpenDyslexic useful fonts to use with #Tusky? Are there others (that are freely redistributable).

The attached screenshots show what this would look like.

Please boost for reach.

Want to know the hottest 14 days ever recorded on planet earth?

They were the last 2 weeks. No exceptions. #ClimateChange #GlobalWarming

In a new article, we write about how the phenomenon of #weeds acquiring #herbicide #resistance can lead to positive effects when these weeds are plants of #phytomedical importance and important in #food #technology.

#Cornflower is such a plant, and its herbicide-resistant biotypes have much higher levels of #polyphenols, #flavonoids and free radical scavenging activities - i.e. better #health-promoting properties than herbicide-sensitive biotypes
