  1. Finally, I need to know something very important. This is very important, please do not scroll past:

    Would you, or would you not, get a maggot tattoo?

    I have reasons for this question, but I want to know your initial, kneejerk reaction first. Don't think too hard, another poll is coming after I give some context.

  5. #Decomposing #deadwood is a #biodiversityhotspot; many small #organisms are either direct #decomposers or closely ecologically related to these primary decomposers. This #riparianforest in Saarland, #Germany, remains partly uncontrolled and is thus full of deadwood in different stages of decomposition. The authors T. Löfroth et al. (2023) studied #factors such as #globalwarming negatively affecting deadwood #ecosystems.

  10. #Drought effects on decomposition are mitigated by an increasingly complex decomposer community. The more species of decomposer organisms there are, the less the essential process of recycling nutrients is affected by the lack of water.

  15. I can't wait for bug season. Right now, I still have to turn over wood and dig around for them. Today, other than moss, the star at the farm were these pillbugs, wood lice, whatever you call them where you're from. All the thousands of times I've seen them in my life, I don't know if I've ever actually looked one in the eyes until today.

    "We typically think of fungi as #decomposers, but they are cryptic and do many different things. Fungi can also function as nutrient cyclers, #pathogens, and #mutualists that live in a beneficial association with plants and other organisms."
