Bluesky Siphonophore Viewer
Posts now gather into a translucent siphonophore-like colony drifting through dark water. Oldest posts begin at one end of the spine and newer ones accumulate toward the other. Engagement thickens bells, membranes, and feeding clusters. Drag to orbit, mouse wheel to zoom, right-drag to pan, hover for a specimen overlay, click a segment to glide toward it, and double click the background to zoom to the whole organism.
Nymph (biology)
In biology, a nymph is the juvenile form of some invertebrates, particularly insects, which undergoes gradual metamorphosis (hemimetabolism) before reaching its adult stage. Unlike a typical larva, a nymph's overall form already resembles that of the adult, except for a lack of wings and the emergence of genitalia. In addition, while a nymph moults, it never enters a pupal stage. Instead, the final moult results in an adult insect. Nymphs undergo multiple stages of development called instars.

After a really annoying, stressful, and downright nauseating weekend, I feel like a wittled down eraser. Between being stalked and harrassed, losing a place I had loved, breaking in a new system member and seeing my friends suffer, this has felt like an extremely exhausting week.
Ecdysis
Ecdysis is the moulting of the cuticle in many invertebrates of the clade Ecdysozoa. Since the cuticle of these animals typically forms a largely inelastic exoskeleton, it is shed during growth and a new, larger covering is formed. The remnants of the old, empty exoskeleton are called exuviae.

#atprotoidea, repost but in 2d6 days. There's so much good stuff! But when it happens we all fire off at once, we all activate, see it, then time goes on. The noosphere needs more recurrence mechanisms.

This is going to turn into an unorganized mess. I can already feel it.
