This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

The Internet says it's an oil beetle. I've never seen one of those before.

Let me educate myself, beetles have them differentiated... though I think abdomen had hardened wings or alike to be a beetle... I am open for reeducation about these details
