Who’s THAT Cucumber!!!

I gave it a good 6~months of researching 🧐 but I’m pretty sure the last recorded documentation of this 🥒 species in Texas was 1922!!! UNTIL MEEE back in
January 2026.

Thanks to the amazing Cuke researchers who came through on Reddit/FB with the paper depicting the species and I found the Hubert Clark reference/noting the species in Texas once over a century ago!!! 104 years to be precise! And thank you @coastal.studieslab for sending another paper in the search for data on it!

EVERYONE MEET Isostichopus maculatus phoenius!

Peep Fig. 17/18 for reference pics of the species it was identified as! And second link is the original 1922 Clark paper reference from Texas! “Previous taxon”

It's insanely stupid that it's June 5 and the California races, especially the LA Mayor race, from June 2 only have about 60% of the votes counted

You know, when Republicans bitch about "mail in ballots" and possibilities for improprieties occurring during elections, we laugh at them because election fraud at massive scale would be almost impossible to pull off, but Democrats do themselves no favors when Democrat-run states can't even tabulate 2/3rds of votes in several days and leaves the door wide open for people to ask why it's taking THIS long.
