New Mexico whiptail (Aspidoscelis neomexicanus) is possible. If it is this species, the species is female-only (according to wikipedia), and so this would be a girl.

Looking through other whiptails found in New Mexico (is that where you found her?), I have found photos of the Texas spotted whiptail (Aspidoscelis gularis) that with patterns of spots similar to the lizard in your picture, so that is another possibility. If it is the Texas spotted whiptail, I do think that it is a female as well because the males have more color (red throat, blue belly).

I agree! From the frogs in Yucatán, the one in this picture and the Mexican burrowing toad (Rhinophrynus dorsalis) are the coolest looking (in my opinion). I have looked and looked for the burrowing toad but I have never found one.

Hmm... Some lichen make use of orobatid mite labour in order to disperse the cells of their photobionts. Are those still ok?

Does pointing a ".onion" url to a clearnet site benefit TOR users? (mander.xyz)

When a website can be accessed via a clearnet and a .onion url, is there a benefit to making use of the .onion url?

Context:

I am considering pointing a ".onion" url to my instance (mander.xyz).

I did some tests with and it seems like mlmym works well with JavaScript disabled. Since JavaScript is often disabled in the tor browser, I could make the .onion url point at that front-end instead.

This would be fun to do, but I wonder if there is a practical benefit to the ".onion" url as opposed to simply accessing the clearnet url via the tor browser.

EDIT: I went ahead and created an onion URL to try out, but I would still like to know if there is an actual advantage to .onion urls:
