Really absurdly beautiful butter crock I saw at a resale shop...I don't even eat butter but I had to take a picture of that glaze

Red blanket flower with red petals edged in yellow and yellow center

Getting some much needed rain today. The flowers and veggie plants are very happy! The cicada song is more subdued today. Maybe they are not fans 🌱

A sterilizer was set to far too high a temp and melted like a shrinky-dink doesn't. Icicles of melted plastic cover the interior, like a weird Willy Wonka nightmare. Stolen from: https://blog.labtag.com/labtags-top-10-lab-fails/ “A grad student from another lab borrowed our oven we use for dry heat sterilization to run a reaction at 180°C. He misunderstood how to reset the temperature to what we normally use, and the following morning, one of our grad students started it to sterilize our equipment without checking the set temperature (the screen only shows current temperature, whereas the set temperature is found in the settings menu). So, by the time we realized what was happening, it was far too late :(.”

1: "Uh, everything's under control. Situation normal."
2: "What happened?"
1: "Uh, we had a slight *autoclave malfunction*, but uh... everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here now, thank you. How are you?"

Beautiful Moments

A school of ghostly blue and white squid float in midnight blue water, their bodies blurred by their fast movements through the sea. The each have large, round black eyes that almost seem to catch the light and reflect back in a silvery shine, long arms that are tucked in closely together to be more streamlined, and a small siphon pointed downwards and to the left. On the image is a logo for the game FathomVerse, with a caricature of a crab made of bubbles next to it.

👾It’s finally here! 👾The community science mobile game that we’ve been working on with our fronds at FathomVerse and @mbarinews.bsky.social is now available for FREE in the Google Play and Apple App stores! Download it here: www.fathomverse.game

A few years ago I was (for some reason) asked to guest-judge a children's science fair. Fear not for the future: our greatest scientific advancements are ahead of us

I love knitting lace patterns. They always end up so beautiful and complicated looking

Anyone else also stuck in limbo today? Storms and thunder here all morning. Constant feeling that something is going to happen soon.

A Yellow Warbler that was bopping around one of the backyard apple trees.

Also, I *need* Hades II just as soon as it goes into early access. The original Hades was one of the best #indie games I’ve played in a while - way more story than I was expecting going into it.

Friend: Do you remember the blueberry compote you made for your birthday in 2022?

Me: Intimately

Happy birthday!

Looking forward to when season 2 of #Arcane comes out. Until then, I’ll just be here listening to the soundtrack of season 1.

A analoge painting of a bright pink lake with trees in the distance and a slightly lighter pink sky. The trees are reflected on the surface of the lake and there are some ripples on the water, aswell.

First post on here. An attempt at a gouache painting I did a few months back. I didn't want my account to be all empty for too long.

The Maple in my backyard, with the green grass of my yard, and the Blue sky, with white clouds. My dog is also in here if you look really close.

Today's blue sky is saying farewell to April.
