It's been twenty minutes and I want to gnaw it off with my teeth my dumb ass needs to be cone of shamed

At least, when it stops hurting really bad 😭

I was really enjoying it but the APM situation is probably just not sustainable for me as is...guess I'll try picking other classes

I made my drawing arm pain flare up getting carried away playing WOW (... Tanking involves a lot of clicks...) and I'm terrible at restraining myself so I've resorted to wearing a sock over my hand and bracing it to hopefully rest it 😔

These whales were hunted to 150 individuals. Now there are 50,000 of them Once hunted almost to extinction, the population of humpback whales currently migrating down Australia's east coast has bounced back and is now greater than before whaling.

Australia's humpback whales are doing so well that their population is expected to reach carrying capacity and plateau in the near future--they have not just reached but exceeded pre-whaling numbers. For this to happen with such a long-lived, slow-reproducing species is near miraculous. #goodnews

Love is such a funny thing. A special one though. Isn't it nice when it starts to get comfortable too? Doesn't that jewel have so many facets? Isn't it wonderful to go from strangers to something so much better?

I've been so lucky in certain matters of the heart.

The beast herself, Cryptolithus bellulus, reconstructed using information from extremely rare fossils with soft-tissue preservation. Solid bronze. #sciart

@oikeo.bsky.social check out the greebles...

OUGH BEAST

Idk. There's a lot of stuff that's going awesome and other stuff I'm struggling with and I try to accept that things just take time. Pretty sure my psychologist would tell me that I'm showing overexposure symptoms. Trying to just. Recondition brain, break anxious cycles, make a comfort zone idfk

Had a big surge of energy in the new place and was a lot less bothered than I thought I would be the first week... Did stuff! Good stuff! This week though I'm. Really tired, trying to ignore brainworms. I might have overdone it with peopling and/or it's throwing me off badly that Bek isn't here yet

Poetry is suffering saying anything at all and knowing every moment after that.... the instrument could always be sharper and cleaner

The sense of Illusion is so strong when you're working with pixels, they can be so counterintuitive a puzzle but so satisfying

PIXELS ARE ADDICTIVE you should go nuts talking about them!!!

i love insects man, this shit writes itself

Look at these absolute beasties. 🥺 Butter wouldn't melt in their mouths.

Many sea stars begin life as young fairy-like creature (called a brachiolaria) that float through the open ocean. Eventually, a small star forms within them (here in yellow). The fairy-like brachiolaria sinks under the star’s weight, and the star pops out!

Several years ago while working in Madagascar I came across these small floating plants. I sketched them and the Malagasy name was Ramilamina. When I got back home I learned the English name is Azolla and are actually ferns. They fix nitrogen, can double in mass in two days, and caused an ice age.

The fucking thing! Blessed fucking thing
