If you want a quick discrete way of checking if a server is federating with #Threads - whatever your preference may be - try this.

Search "threads.net"

If you see results for profiles on threads.net that means the server does not have threads.net blocked, and has seen some.

If you don't see results, it might just mean network effects haven't made the server aware of these profiles yet, but if it's an averagely lively server, there's a good chance the server has Threads blocked.

I often create things that I'd like to see, so here's my fantasy iris, embedded with gems. It's part of a collection of fantasy flowers.

The Halloween pennant (Celithemis eponina) is a brightly colored species that occurs in parts of Canada and the United States. The yellow areas of adult males redden as they mature, as seen in this image. Dragonflies are masterful flyers and appear to zoom along with hardly a flap of their wings. They can also hover very efficiently.

Paleontologist discovers rare soft tissue in fossil of crab

Most animals and plants never fossilize. For those that do, it's usually only hard parts such as bones and shells that preserve. However, in some exceptional cases, soft tissues such as muscles and gills survive the fossilization process and can present a wealth of information about the biology and ecology of ancient organisms.
