Stripping out the stable at the far end of the big barn. It's not very nice in there.
But a real treasure! Half a meter of compressed dung mixed with hay. Excellent fertilizer for crops.
Not sure if horse or cow. I think it must've been cows kept here last, long ago.

In my new YouTube #video, I tell the #hypothetical story of a #Histiostomatidae #mite that lived its #lifehistory in the #dung heap of the #dinosaur #Edmontosaurus #annectens during the Late #Cretaceous. It developed #fungivorously within the dung and, when conditions deteriorated, was #transported by #flies to a new habitat (phoresis). All images and footage created with #AI assistance, except photos of free-living mites.

Dear Leader likes to rain AI-poo on protestors. In May we posted a look at the regime's exclusive DUNG PARTY hosted by "Scumbags United" It's an AI Follies satire video which details their love of dung...filthy, dirty dung!

@Heliograph Probably also whack an #auspol on it too. It would be inaccurate to include #dung - or would it?

Would you rather sit in a tub of cream for 2 hours, or a bath of cow dung for 10 minutes?

> Many dung beetles, known as rollers, roll dung into round balls, which are used as a food source or breeding chambers. Others, known as tunnelers, bury the dung wherever they find it. A third group, the dwellers, neither roll nor burrow: they simply live in dung.

🪲🪲🪲 Citation alert from a #dung #beettle #paper 🤔🤔🤔
With Antonio Vallecillo, we already defended the idea of #modeling being a #interdisciplinary discipline (see https://lnkd.in/etjUgMr6) but I never expected to see my work influencing #entomologists doing research on #dung #beetles. 😁😁
(btw, the image is not fake but the citation is indeed a mistake, yet another example of the drawbacks of relying too much on #citation metrics for researchers' #evaluation)

#poppycock is a noun that means #nonsense or #foolish talk. It is an informal word that is used to describe something that is considered untrue or ridiculous. The word is believed to have #originated from the #Dutch word #pappekak which means #soft #dung

I've finally found it (on sale, I was not going to pay full price for it)!
The most amazing, astounding, and astonishing set Lego has ever produced (yes, this is a very official set): the Triceratops dung heap itself.

@ReedLindwurm Per this article Splachnum ampullaceum has photosynthetic plastids ... but there's no mention of photosynthetic rate relative to other mosses. I'm assuming the moss gets nutrients from insects but carbohydrates from photosynthesis. From the paper it seems that the color is from an overproduction of yellow and red pigments (attractive to insects), and perhaps that masks the presence of chlorophylls. Amazing family. #moss #insects #dung #bryophyte #nature #splachnaceae #entomophily #botany https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4346412/

I'm carrying out a study about 2 cryptic Onhtophagus species (Coleoptera Scarabaeidae).
A paratype locality is located a few kilometers away from my forest, but associated genitalia were borrowed and never returned to NHM..
My forest provided hundreds of new specimens.
But not this year. I saw just none of them, despite summer is their time. These dung beetles follow mammals. Food chain alteration, may eventually have driven mammals away.

Cow Patty Bingo is a contest in which a farmer divides a field into 100 squares, gives each participant a number 1-100, and lets a cow loose. If the cow poos in your square you win.
The staff at Gala Bingo secretly run a similar game called Pissy Chair Bingo.

If money being "the dung of the devil" (as the pope puts it) was not bad enough, just think that this whole civilization is build upon it.

If anyone's in #Hull on the 24th May I will be doing the

thing at Nanouk. I will be giving a talk entitled "#Sex and #dung and #ClimateChange". Starts 1900. Looking forward to it. -
@samhainnight #DeSantis anyway has no choice under the US #Constitution (but who knows how the six #Falangists on #SCOTUS would rule). More importantly, he only said this after it was clear #Trump would surrender voluntarily. DeSantis‘s statement only makes it more certain the sack of fermenting #dung will turn himself in - otherwise he‘d appear weak and in DeSantis‘s debt. Like Trump, DeSantis is a bully but, even more importantly, a coward.

So, as you may not be aware, Lego is about to release some Jurassic Park sets. I mean, the original movie. And yes, there is a triceratops set, and yes, it comes with a big brick built pile of dung.
