  2. CW: close-up of an insect

    Is there an entomologist in the house?

    I would like to know if this is an ordinary #silverfish or a paper silverfish.

  3. Hard little critter to photograph in basement lighting. Meh!

  4. A wonderfully broad topic of #Animals for #JukeboxFridayNight this week.

    Here's a classic, early 90s industrial piece we went mad for in the clubs. The fabulous Lesley Rankine on lead vocals, but be warned: the music starts abruptly and there's flashing imagery and some potentially unsettling animation too.

    Everybody join in: "Hips, Tits, Lips, Power!"

  5. More #silverfish related antics: I read (sourced from a science paper from 1956) that in having sex they have a whole 30 minutes of fun - starting by touching each other with their feelers, then chasing each other round in a mating game, before the male spunks all over the female.

    Seems they understand the importance of foreplay more than most human couples 😅

  6. Some days we wake to find a silverfish (sølvkre) on our bathroom floor. Our neighbours have the same and asked the board if they could do something to get rid of them.

    According to FHI they aren't really a problem unless it's out of control and they're eating your antique books and stamp collection. 😅

    They're cool little insects though. Fast movers, shiny silver, fluid movements.

    Saw #Silverfish various times in the early 1990s and they were never less than intense.

  9. This December #InsertAnInvert2024 is about #insect motion. The first prompt is scuttler, about “early” insects who didn’t evolve flight. So I made a tiny #linocut silverfish (Lepisma saccharinum). It got its common name from its colour and its fishlike movements.

  10. Happy Halloween! 🎃

    I've made another #conservation themed (or more accurately IPM themed) pumpkin this year: the SILVERFISH!

    Previous years have included woolly bears, clothes moth, and tape. Because of course.

    Keep it spooky out there! 🎃

  11. Here is ten seconds of ChunChun rolling and basking the sun with a custom made silverfish toy. I only take it out rarely because of Sprockles’ catnip sensitivity.
