having a nice time with these

A couple of yellow-bellied sapsuckers are doing what they do in a tree. The first one gasps and says: "Leaves! Finally! Spring is here! Relief from the misery at last!" The second one goes "Oh, this winter wasn't so bad, in fact, the daily highs were well above average–" but this statement gets interrupted by the thoughts of the first bird thinking "I could kill him. No one would have to know."

Touching grass is not enough I need to fly 1000 miles north while quacking nonstop with hundreds of other ducks

Around Central Park in birds... omfg I think I saw or heard close to 70 or 80 species, but need to look at my notes.

Gatsby with back to viewer brushing his hair with a gold comb. He’s framed by a brown vintage vanity. There’s cologne, shaving paraphernalia, a vase of flowers, bow ties, a knife, and a gun surrounding him.

Beyoncé standing in a cowgirl outfit with two white horse at her feet. She’s framed by a cream lone star and golden swirls

Perfect blue. A blue mirror image of one girl scared in the bath water and her mirror image smiling and singing with a mic. Pink swirls distort the singer. Smaller with singers are in the swirls

Digital painting of two women walking past each other without looking at one another. Behind them is a statue of a girl with closed eyes covered by sweeping veils of fabric. The scene is lit by the glow of a cold red sky seen through a broken window.

Damned to love once

Gouache painting of a cat sleeping on its side between some solar panels. The sides are filled with plants. Overall, the painting is mostly is monochromatic yellow. The cats paws are crossing into blue shadows.

A zoomed out different view of the scene from the last painting. In the blue fg the silhouette of a cat is standing on a railing between solar panels. In the bg are many homes all with solar panel roofs.

the human experience of being deeply connected to the moon

A southeast asian trans man with long white hair and white flowers in his hair staring. He wears a mask of black, polished wood, with the bottom of the eyes beaded to look like tear drops. The center of his mask is a symbol of a deity in my world-building, and it is a blue flame with an eye at its center. It looks almost like a hamsa.

Hubble’s visible-light view of a star-forming region, the Pillars of Creation, shows darker pillars that rise from the bottom to the top of the screen, ending in three points. The background is opaque, set off in yellow and green toward the bottom and blue and purple at the top. A handful of stars of various sizes appear.

A colorful, glowing nebula that reaches beyond the top and bottom of the image. This translucent cloud of gas holds wispy and thin filaments with hard edges in some places, and puffy and opaque in others. Blue, red, and yellow colors mix together, showing light emitted by different types of atoms in the hot gas. Scattered across the colorful nebula are bright and point-like foreground and background stars. The background is black.

Viewed like a distorted donut, an inner circular nebula region glows in dark blue shades with faint stars viewed within. It's surrounded by a ring of bright teal, then an outer ring of reddish-orange. Black space with distant, faint stars fills the background.

Thousands of bright stars shine against black space, more tightly condensed near the image’s center. The stars glint in shades of white, blue, and red, and diffraction spikes are visible around the foreground stars.

you’re as beautiful as the stars above btw
