I accidentally stumbled upon this elderly gay man’s website last night, it’s been active since the 90s and has pages talking about his personal life as a gay cowboy it’s super interesting! he has webcams running on it that refresh every minute or so and pages about his experiences with HIV and cancer - he also has a massive archive of gay magazine scans (18+) from the 70s up to the 90s!
It’s funny bc back in 2013 when the fandom vs hipster wars were raging my sympathies lay with the former. But in my old age i fear my allegiance has shifted…. but it no longer matters
today’s funky frog of the day is the green frog (Lithobates clamitans) - this stunning example is a blue morph, caused by a lack of yellow pigment in the skin! this is one of the most common frogs in eastern north america, and show some diversity in their coloration, although usually not as intensely blue as this fellow.

To add onto this, the mutation that causes a lack of yellow pigment is called axanthism! This frog is super cool, what an amazing find !
