This raku vase was inspired by part of an emission nebula 4000 light years away known as the 'Dragons of Ara'. It's name is not only a nod to the beauty of the nebula, but also to the fiery magical process of raku. #art #astronomy #sciart #pottery

Supreme Court Allows States to Bar Transgender Athletes From Girls’ Sports

Is there any point in coming out as non-binary in your 40s? I used to think there was not but seeing how nasty some people have been during this pride with their ignorance have given me strength I was not sure I had. Now to find some fabulous androgynous ensembles to celebrate! #pride #LGBTQ

Happy Pride, Seattle!

a true knight fights for everyone ⚔️🏳️‍⚧️ (chivalry is gay!! happy pride!!)

I love our pride laser.

Tens of thousands celebrated Budapest Pride, the first since Viktor Orbán’s ousting.

Any questions? #DV1 #ProudBlue #Voices4Victory #USDemocracy

This project came together rather quickly. I used a skein of Fiber Optic Yarns' Kashmir in the colorway Peace and leftovers from my June 2024 release of the Wavelength Wrap (second photo), which uses the Over the Rainbow Infinity Fade. 🧶 #fiberopticyarns #satisfyingstripesshawl #wavelengthwrap

In late 2025 and early 2026, we had a couple of amazing comets visible to the naked eye, C/2025 A6 Lemmon and C/2025 R3 (PanSTARRS). Both were recently discovered in 2025. ☄️🤩 #astrophotography #astronomy #naturephotography #nature #eastcoastkin #comets #photography

Chiitan loves transgender people from the bottom of my heart🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈 From a fairy like Chiitan, it seems natural for everyone to live as their true selves. That’s why, until the day Chiitan disappears and is gone, I’ll keep sending gentle messages so that all transgender people can live happily.

It's #portfolioday, and I should probably share some pictures of my work, but we are still grieving the loss of our niece. It was her lived experience and our desire for people to be loved and accepted for who they are that inspired our trans mug fundraiser. rakupottery.ca/mugs/ Please share 💙🙏

Foxglove you say? I’m imagining tiny paws in these little flowers :) Sebastopol, California #Art #Photography #BloomScroll #Flowers

Unresolved anxiety

Beautiful blue glass beads from the Danish Bronze Age. Found by a farmer at Humlum in Denmark in 1885. Glass analysis published in 2015 shows the beads originated in Mesopotamia indicating far-reaching trade networks some 3,000 years ago. 📷 National Museum of Denmark #Archaeology

Big worry. There is this very coherent picture of deep western Atlantic overturning weakening for all different kinds of latitudes in the AMOC system consistent with slowing models. www.newscientist.com/article/2522...

Artemis II mission captures first pictures of the far side of the Moon.

Bees are small, fragile, and easily overlooked. And yet, in their heavy pollen-laden wings, they hold something of the planet's balance. With every flight, with every touch of the petals, the bee gathers not only nectar—it gathers life, color, hope.

Trump is bored with the war. He wanted another quick-fix like Venezuela. But Iran is now attacking the Gulf states and the Mideast is crippling our economy. Trump can’t tiptoe away from a longer bigger war than he expected!

I think we just need to make this shit mandatory.

This is extremely bad — and it’s ALL Trump‘s fault.

Meet Ayla Lucas, a 7-year old little girl with autism who is being held at the Ursula Detention Center in Texas. The Ursula facility is notoriously known for having locked children in cages. The irreparable harm being inflicted on these innocent children by this administration is inexcusable.

FYI to trans people: HRT Cafe has apparently shut down after too much media attention. Please, take advice from an old trans woman: Take those discussions underground. All of them. Anything that discusses what we need to survive & where to get it. Word of mouth and private forums only!

This is trans genocide.

100,000 trans people & allies fill central London for Trans Pride. Mainstream media: nothing Thousands of trans people & allies fill Wembley Arena for pro-trans gig with massive names like Sophie Ellis-Bextor & Sugarbabes. Mainstream media: nothing. This is what extreme media bias looks like.

E.g. "trans people deserve the full slate of human rights" as opposed to "the people publishing anti-trans op-eds on the topic in the NYT are clowns"

Solar does not care about the Strait of Hormuz. Oil flows through chokepoints. Solar follows a learning curve. Great piece @azeem.bsky.social www.exponentialview.co/p/solar-supe...
