NOID plant sold as "Argostemma sp. Sampit" (supposedly from Sampit, Central Kalimantan, Borneo). I can't confirm if this genus and location are accurate. Regardless, it's a great plant which has stunning foliage, interesting growth form, and seems to be miniature.

Paphiopedilum barbigerum (sib cross, Canton Lady form). A delightful miniature species that grows just a few inches wide and tall. The bloom is practically half the size of the entire plant! I'm glad I decided to get into this genus (minis only, though!)

TIL of Prototaxites a genus of fungi which existed 470 to 360 million years ago. They would form large trunks similar to trees that were 1m wide (3ft) and 8m high (26ft). They were at the time one of the largest organism on land.

A new, transitional centrosaurine, discovered in 2020 named βstellasaurusβ was determined to be a separate genus from rubeosaurus and styracosaurus and rather a transitional form between the latter and einiosaurus, thus completing the evolution of the βStyracosaurus-line' of dinosaurs. Art by me.

When Karl Marx talks about the genus and species of government, is he separating content from form?
Or function from form, I'm not certain what language is really adequate to describe this. I just remember: democracy is the genus of which all forms of government are the species. meaning, I think, that the question of democracy is not whether or not democracy is an institutionally chosen form of government; the question, rather becomes whether or not a government of any particular variety is democratically run.
Under these new conditions, a democracy can take the form of a dictatorship; the 'democracy' part is the relationship of the government to its people, not any form of that relationship.
stemming from this taxonomically, I reckon, is the idea that the form of 'government' which most closely reflects the actual essence or nature of government would have to be a direct democracy; this would be the form of government which, without representation, most closely links the work of the government with the people whom it governs.
Am I getting this right? He explains most of this in different words, I think, but I like the structure of this layout because I think it helps to explain how power functions inside and outside of our institutions. Thank you!

(Modular Forms) For a genus zero compact Riemann surface, is there always a Hauptmodul having pole of order 1 at infinity?
Specifically I'm interested in when the surface X is the modular curve corresponding to Gamma_{0}(N). In case it's not well-known, a Hauptmodul is a generator for the 1-dimensional (as an algebra) algebra of meromorphic functions on X, i.e. the function field of X.
I'm thinking that, because X is essentially the same as the Riemann sphere, on which the function field is generated by z --> z (having order -1 at infinity), the answer to my question should be "yes". But I'm not versed enough in geometry to confirm this.

I remember people suggesting that (if real) βthe graysβ aliens were actually humans, because it wouldnβt make sense for Aliens to be humanoid like that and what not, and that made me wonder what could result in them having appearances like that?
