What an incredible shot! Just getting *one* hummingbird in focus is a feat. I've never seen two photographed like this! #hummingbirds #BirdOfTheDay

She basically invented astrophysics. She proved the laws of chemistry, quantum mechanics, and statistical mechanics, not just gravity, applied universally. She determined the composition of the sun and primacy of hydrogen in the universe. She advised the PhDs of Frank Drake and Frank Kameny.

“We are told by leaders that we are the future. But when it comes to the ongoing pandemic, our present is being stolen right in front of our eyes.” Incredible speech by Violet Affleck who warned about the ongoing dangers of COVID & Long Covid, & advocated for masks and clean air at the UN today!

honestly the entire ending paragraph hits hard as hell. I feel like this is the most I've ever seen someone that isn't a furry Get It.

I can’t believe I got to see the northern lights so clearly last night while visiting the U.P in Michigan. So so magical….they looked like this with the naked eye, these pics aren’t edited

“Games of friendly competition are commonly held during most major festivals, and rivalries often develop between neighboring villages. The biggest issue is usually figuring out how to divide up the teams fairly though...”

One thing I probably don't value enough is the whole concept artwork I do before some of my paintings, so here's the ones used for this piece.

Stories of the Skies 🐲🌌

On one hand, reducing car use reduces urban pollution. But on the other, everyone likes it and cities become more livable

Ponder the Orb 🔮

"Age verification" laws are actually "upload your ID or get your face scanned to access every website, ending anonymity and associating your identity with everything you do online" laws and if more people understood that they would not be down for this authoritarian nonsense

I would love for more institutions to implement out-of-band root certificate verification for decentralized trust! In a world where citizens must make an extra effort to protect themselves from both individual and state actors, strong *and decentralized* Public Key Infrastructure is essential!

I love this cozy animation by @heisanimation.bsky.social ! Alt Text: A fluffy dragon in a t-shirt with cut-off sleeves composes music with a keyboard and synthesizer pad. The scene is warmly lit by the orange light spilling in from a window behind the dragon.

Sex-reversal in birds (genetically male/female but appear female/male) is surprisingly common. Best detail: A genetically male bird called a laughing kookaburra had recently laid an egg. (1/2) By @phiejacobs.bsky.social on @science.org

got carried away with this color study and probably should've just spent this time starting the final piece 🙃

This is not a joke. Consider this. Its 150 gigs for images and all. That's literally less than one AAA game.

Every reputable expert I know considers mRNA vaccine technology to be one of the most revolutionary advances in medicine in our lifetimes. Its inventors won the Nobel Prize in 2023. Shutting it down now is pointless self-harm to humanity.

At EFF we spend a lot of time thinking about the tech used by police and authorities to spy on you while you’re going about your everyday life, like cell-site simulators (CSS). Rayhunter is an open source tool we’ve created that we hope empowers everyone to help search out CSS around the world.

"The anti-pornography movement and the financial services sector have long been engaged in a relationship where one uses its morality as a weapon and the other uses virtue capitalism as a means to enforce censorship. All of this is in the name of supposedly protecting public decency."

Steam and itch.io have removed thousands of video games in recent weeks deemed to be "adult content" in order to comply with strict rules from payment processors like Mastercard. These policies censor artists engaged in lawful speech. Mastercard shouldn't be the gatekeepers of our digital freedom.

THREAD. A selection of interdimensional portals I have chanced upon during walks in the British countryside.

I read the clinical trial submissions when the FDA approved Yeztugo in June. Gilead could actually stop HIV worldwide with this approach! I'm so relieved final approvals made it through before the committee was disbanded (just last week!)

"Good night" finished this BIG commission for @kuroissan.bsky.social , thank you so much for the support!

There's a lot of noise on the internet today related to Visa and Mastercard's content moderation policies. If you're interested in reading the actual requirements, they're published here: usa.visa.com/content/dam/... and here: www.mastercard.com/content/dam/...

ICE is going after taxpayer data, food stamp data – and now health data. This violates federal privacy laws. Check out our amicus brief in the lawsuit against HHS disclosing Medicaid data to DHS.

For years, Sacramento has been running an illegal scheme using power meters for mass surveillance. Last week, we asked for a court order to stop this practice for good.
