If you watch Jaws backwards, it’s really a beautiful, uplifting story of a shark overcoming his bulimia.

“I promise I’ll stop drinking if you let me lead the most powerful military in the world and give my job literal life or death stakes” is kind of a banger though. Not what we expected but what we deserve.

no one else may see the vision but i see the vision

i have taken the canon out behind the shed and shot it with a .357 Magnum

A massive spiral galaxy fills the image. A bright, yellow galactic core glows at the center, surrounded by spiral arms studded with pink stars and dark lanes of dust.

A spiral galaxy, seen face-on to the viewer. The bright center of the galaxy is crossed by a glowing bar, and it is surrounded by tightly wound spiral arms, forming a circular shape with relatively clear edges. Faraway galaxies are visible around it, along with a few bright stars, on a dark background. One star to the right of the galaxy is very large and extremely bright with long diffraction spikes.

Slightly oblique view of a spiral galaxy with a glowing yellow central core and two spiral arms that wind clockwise from the center. The arms consist of dark reddish-brown dust trails that are vein-like and hazy clouds of blue stars. The outer regions of the galaxy appear bluer, with bright clusters of blue stars sparsely lining the outer edges of the spiral arms. There are a few foreground stars that have bright white or blue cores with colorful fuzzy halos and four diffraction spikes radiating from their centers. Scattered across the dark background are thousands of faint objects that vary in size, shape, and color. Most appear as small dots, ovals, or lines in different shades of orange, red, and blue.

A bright, white galactic core shines near the center of the image with a faint bar of stars extending from it, diagonally to the right. Faint, hazy spiral arms encircle the core, with several distant stars and bright blue foreground stars with diffraction spikes scattered throughout the image, all against black space.

galaxies are so beautiful 🌌

The blue and tan Eastern Bluebird is perched on a branch looking down. There are other branches, and the background is a blurry green and yellow.

Humble beauty...

the British policy of sending three ghosts per year to an individual magnate was fine at the time but is inefficient in the modern day

Dying to go here 🥹

Pine martin posing next to a tree.

What day is it ?
Weasel Wednesday

This is a pine martin, they're in the weasel family, a mustelid. Same family as badgers and stoats, wolverines and otters.

Something to remind you
It's a world worth saving

Greeting you on Bluesky with this reminder

They are living, thinking, feeling beings

And they deserve our respect, even if we haven't earned theirs.

One love

I like how Little Shop of Horrors stops for a second and goes “yeah I’ve got a real fuckin beef with Dentists!!” and then goes back to the plant stuff

The planet Uranus on a black background. The planet appears blue with a large, white patch taking up the right half. The patch is whitest at the centre, then fades into blue as it expands from right to left. A thin outline of Uranus is also white. Around the planet is a system of nested rings. The outermost ring is the brightest while the innermost ring is the faintest. Unlike Saturn’s horizontal rings, the rings of Uranus are vertical and so they appear to surround the planet in an oval shape. There are 9 blueish white dots scattered around the rings.

Clearest view to date of Uranus' rings.

people say “you need to start living in the real world” but they forget that the real world includes lupines and lightning bugs and ginger beer and starlight and sea coasts and Renoir paintings and Rachmaninoff’s piano concertos and fog banks and foxes playing in snow.
