One of three Northern Water snakes (Nerodia sipedon) we have in our pond this year.

I still can’t figure out when “we can deport you” turned into “we can put you in a hell hole prison in a third country, indefinitely, with no legal recourse.”

Large, double, salmon colored amaryllis blooms in front of a window. The background through the window contains an orange, pink, and purple sunset.

Amaryllis Flamingo Amadeus

She's a showstopper. The last of my amaryllis to bloom, and she was worth the wait.

This energy right here.

Okay, this is my newest very very favorite meme.

Video obtained by CNN shows the rear landing gear of the jet buckling and the right wing shearing away in a fireball after the plane landed hard on the runway.

I hope America is as lucky as the delta jet - everyone survives but the right wing explodes

@apantesis.bsky.social look at this nice mushroom

We got a message from the university to remove any use of the "DEI", "diversity", "equity", or "inclusion" from all public-facing documents. They said that even "biodiversity" is being flagged by the federal government. We live in the dumbest timeline.

Wish I knew somebody who was in one of the two halls of Congress right now.

LIVE IN THE MOMENT This moment is bad

Really showing off his 30% great pyr in this one

Me: Oh no that trolley is going to run us over!

Guy tied up on the track next to me who somehow thinks he's actually the guy holding the lever: Lol cry more 😂

The thing that’s most striking about this is that they set up an e-mail account specifically for people to report on each other for any attempt to implement “DEIA or similar ideologies” and threatened “adverse consequences” for NOT reporting.

@apantesis.bsky.social making sure you see this stunning pattern 🤩

A dense repeating pattern of hand drawn green mugwort plants and cicadas and beetles over a dark reddish purple background

This one really cemented "hey I want to draw patterns" as a goal. My best friend told me about a dream she had featuring a blue beetle, and I was inspired to make this!

Cicadas, Mugwort (to promote visions), beetles.

Sleepy snowy morning 😌

Picture of Oliver, a large dog, laying on his back with his feet in the air

Good morning from Oliver. Every morning Oliver needs snuggles to regain structural integrity.

This is the GOP’s long con on full display.
