took my DSLR to junior’s graduation, was annoyed at myself for not changing my speedlight batteries while trying to get piñata shots under the shade of a tree so I changed them when I got home.

the batteries I took out were dated 2011

a few of the people I follow are on a years-long usually dormant thread with a few dozen people that just post the most wild schematics and infographics at each other and if I could follow a thread I would follow that thread and if I could find it I would break my usual “don’t be a reply guy” lurker mentality and post this amazing graphic at it even though I don’t know any of them and don’t know what the thread is for so i’m just gonna post it here and maybe start a new one for myself and you

the preview image from https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-025-09039-2, “In vivo screen of Plasmodium targets for mosquito-based malaria control” which includes illustrations of a mosquito on a surface and the mosquito’s gut, a cool rainbow colored histogram(?), two rows of stacked scatter plots with pie charts under them, and a stacked bar chart

expert guidance, as with all things: “get good.”
