Awesome, I wouldn’t mind being around Procyon right now.
Just like Die Hard for Christmas!
Found this story over on io9 and I gotta be honest with you, I’ve thought about this a number of times before:
Ant colonies are often part of bigger “mega colonies” that share genetic traits and will not make war on each other. One colony got so big it now rivals the human population in its reach, covering most of the planet.
According to BBC News:
In Europe, one vast colony of Argentine ants is thought to stretch for 6,000km (3,700 miles) along the Mediterranean coast, while another in the US, known as the “Californian large”, extends over 900km (560 miles) along the coast of California. A third huge colony exists on the west coast of Japan.
While ants are usually highly territorial, those living within each super-colony are tolerant of one another, even if they live tens or hundreds of kilometres apart. Each super-colony, however, was thought to be quite distinct.
But it now appears that billions of Argentine ants around the world all actually belong to one single global mega-colony. Researchers in Japan and Spain led by Eiriki Sunamura of the University of Tokyo found that Argentine ants living in Europe, Japan and California shared a strikingly similar chemical profile of hydrocarbons on their cuticles . . . “The enormous extent of this population is paralleled only by human society,” the researchers write in the journal Insect Sociaux, in which they report their findings.
The real question is, do the ants have a plan?

Neill Cameron writes and draws comics for a living, but his latest project undergoes a more laidback comic-relief touch.
A-Z of Awesomeness, an ongoing project in which I draw a picture each day, of stuff that is Awesome, for the letters A-Z.
There are some pretty amusing pictures here, but my personal favourites right now are the letters G & Q.
I have been feeling the need lately to just draw some stuff that is fun, for my own amusement. And so I am going to spend the next month doing just that: drawing STUFF that is AWESOME. And the best part is – you get to tell me what.
See the collection grow daily at: A-Z of Awesomeness
Starring three of my favourite actors, explorer Ethan Hawke, Bobby Peru Willem Dafoe and the Event Horizon’s designer, Dr. William Weir Sam Neill [Kiwi actor] – and it’s a Vampire Flick no less!
Daybreakers flips the vampire mythos on its head: it’s 2019, most of the world drinks blood, and real humans are an endangered species.
In the year 2019, a plague has transformed most every human into vampires. Faced with a dwindling blood supply, the fractured dominant race plots their survival; meanwhile, a researcher works with a covert band of vamps on a way to save humankind.
FUCKING EPIC! Pretty much my dream cast.
