Ah yes, a popular field of study in the parrot community

They don't seem to mind, unfortunately! It's the invasive tiger mosquitoes, too - the stealth ones that don't make that whine.

Got bit in the face by a mosquito and now I look like I've been in a fight

Ooh, lovely soft planes

another study with the new procreate brushes that I’ve been chipping away at 🦉

What was his dissertation on?

Green cheek conure sitting on a shoulder

My anti-research assistant, Dr Boris B. Bayes, PhD. His research interests include
(1) Optimal methods for screaming louder than 120dB,
(2) Finding excuses to bite, and
(3) Figuring out where fruit and almonds come from and how to make them appear on command.

Tron gives an inaccurate impression of how many guys live in your computer. It makes it seem like thousands of guys are in there. In reality only about 10 guys live in your computer and less than half of them ride motorcycles

Thanks, I'll probably stick them in the garage. Maybe I'll keep a couple indoors to see what happens!

The Knesset is...well, we know what it is...but Israel!

A tangle of young Sarracenia plants in a tray, somewhat overcrowded. Most pitchers are yellow-green, some are yellow near the top, some with red veining. Some have contrasting white patterns on their lids.

I really should've repotted these guys already

Oh, you may know the answer to this - do sundews need dormancy in their first year, or can I keep them active to grow through winter, like young Sarracenias?

Graphite and brown pencil drawing of the head of a Tyrannosaurus rex, mouth agape, in profile, facing left. The drawing is characterised by intricate linework and texture.

Tyrannosaurus rex was named 120 years ago today on 4th October, 1905.

I would do things a little differently now, but this drawing is from 2020.

Feel like the world has lost all of its magic and wonder? Read up on the horn arrangements of ceratopsians. Try to imagine as weird of a horn arrangement as you can and I swear that a weirder one existed in real life.

Get really into dinosaurs. That's my recommendation for a happier life. Each day, I get news like "Look at this big freak that used roam the Earth!" or "Ya know the big freak you already loved? Fossils show it was even more freakish!" and it's a blessing every time.
