Sally Lightfoot
Galapagos crabs scrambling over lava rocks Called Sally Lightfoot The bright orange crabs are called Sally Lightfoot (Grapsus grapsus). Per the Galapagos Conservation Trust: "Sally Lightfoot crabs are brightly-coloured coastal scavengers, found in the Galapagos Islands and across the western coast of South and Central America. They have an extremely generalist diet, feeding on anything from sea lion placenta to other crabs. This makes them an important part of the ecosystem, as they provide services such as keeping the shore clean of any organic debris and eating ticks off marine iguanas. They are rumoured to have been named after a Caribbean dancer, due to their agility in jumping from rock to rock, their ability to run in four directions, and their capacity to climb up vertical slopes."

What Rage Feels Like
"Majority Fools" What's good for the goose, Is good for the gander. Wrap my neck in a noose, From all that damn slander. What is good for one, Is not good for all. Different lives are spun, Before we even start to crawl. I can talk and talk, Until I'm blue in the face. But your guidelines are chalk, That you refuse to erase. Singular in mind, Solitary in view, Keep on being confined, By everything you thought you knew. A line in the sand, So easy to cross, But your high demands, Mean endless lives are lost. But we have this system, That's confounding to me, It leaves so many victims, So much for "land of the free". But this is what happens, When you go by majority rules. Peoples lives are blackened, Because the majority are fools.
