I’m in South Florida and this absolutely a huge red flag. This can’t be a pre or current desaparecidos repeat.

It’s been a bit, but this little one’s false advertising is partially to blame! Happy Equinox. Hope your day is filled with nice crustacean friends and less of crabby critters of any species! #naturephotography #crabfriend #ocean #equinox

Happy #Caturday! First time using paper clay and first time modeling anything outside of one time during a Cranium game. Finally tried it @yiawrites.bsky.social ! Here’s my attempt at sunning version of one of my characters --> the cat, Scuba and the photo I used as reference. #uplift #art

When you mess with science, be prepared for a reaction! #standupforscience @standupforscience.bsky.social

Just a peacock buddy practicing his skills on the balance beam and giving me a look. #uplift #nature #photography

Wonders found while looking down: sidewalk edition “For anyone who needs it.” #photography #motivation

Wonders found while looking down, lawn flowers edition: Soldier orchid - apparently considered invasive in Florida, but not THAT ecologically invasive? P.S. Love that the photo didn’t upload the first time! 😖 #photography #uplift

Just a casual peacock walking through someone’s garden. This guy was showcasing his glory for himself with no peahens or peachildren around. #nature #photography

Happy Lunar New Year. Wishing you joy, peace, cleverness and adaptability! #YearoftheSnake #LunarNewYear

Wow. This cover. Image to title. Wow. Their faces capture such wonder! Congrats!

Peach, my one-eyed rescue Monk / Quaker parrot says hi! Wishing everyone a good rest of the week. (She was trying out a Cockatiel look) #uplift #blueskybirds

Mark your calendars, people - February 12. Get what they are they looking for, directly from the source.🌟 #WritingCommunity

Yes! Please do. #kidlit #teachers #librarians #books

Not an illustrator, but working hard on some concept art for my #YA. Meet my Narcissus. :)

Exciting!

Hide and Seek- It was cloudy, it was “late,” but it came and did not disappoint. The first sun of the year. Happy 2025 ! #newyear #

This is wonderful! Thanks, Adriane. Wishing you another fruitful and imaginative year.

Sunflower blooms really would look like joyful riots in the sky :) A cool thing about them is that they are the international symbol for nuclear disarmament, but also played a part in the decontamination after the Fukushima-Daiichi nuclear accident.

Happy Winter Solstice! The moon came to say hi along with an unidentified avian friend. #moon #winter ? #solstice

I really like to see the youngins give their feedback!

Ditto.

Funny how things that are so far can help you feel found. (Piece from Makoto Shinkai, Japanese (anime) filmmaker and novelist.) #MakotoShinkai #anime #art

Totally have had that experience of wanting to make a recipe associated with family or a holiday and it being uncooperative! But now thanks to Mai and her family, I’m hungry, but luckily for me some versions of these egg rolls are gluten free :)

Oh man! I can totally see Mama and Tara wrapping her new turban. Already feel that magic that comes with new, unexpected discoveries.

#CommunityPolls #Uplift Sometimes I take moon photos with my phone on walk. Yesterday, the crescent moon started off really low in the sky!

Meeting the cat neighbors on a different route with my dog who loves kitties. #CommunityPolls #Uplift

Hey, writers! Just want to put this on your radar. There's a rash of new accounts here trying to scam writers by pretending to be book marketers. They are generally not legit. You can recognize them because:

Treat for the new year -->

Good luck!

Does anyone know of a live audio translator program / app that works for Japanese to English? Audio or transcription is fine. I’ve been looking for one, but either they work for really short bits of speech or they require you to upload the audio file. I’d be so grateful! Thank you!
