"Everything changes, nothing is lost", stone mandala by land artist Katie Griesar #WomensArt #NewYear2026

Happy New Year! We welcome in the Year of the Curious Squid! Here's hoping that it doesn't go the way of the curious cat. May it be filled with good things, and no one lives in Interesting Times. #DWCon2026 #DiscworldConvention #HappyNewYear!

Ein gestrickter Mohair-Seide-Schal, sehr leicht und fluffig, mit passender Mütze. Die Beschenkte hat sich gefreut, ich hab das Mohair gehasst. 😂. #stricken #knitting #handarbeitsclub 🧶

Nicht das beste Foto, aber ein wirklich toller Pullover fürs Radfahren im Herbst, den ich eigentlich nur gehäkelt habe, weil die Wolle nach dem Umräumen keinen Platz mehr fand (war mal ein Fehlkauf). Mit zwei Reißverschlusstaschen. #crochet #häkeln #Handarbeitsclub 🧶

Letzte fertige Projekte des Jahres. Mein Sonnenschal im nebligen Herbst/ Winter. #crochet #häkeln #Handarbeitsclub 🧶

Ich werde besser. #crochet #amigurumi #häkeln #Handarbeitsclub 🧶

Happy New Year to everyone reading along, no matter which time zone you’re in 🌍✨ May 2026 begin with peace, health, and courage and may these stay with us throughout the year. A new year for a shared world. 🍀

Auf den Fotos seht ihr Tierrettungseinsätze der Wildvogelhilfe Leipzig an Silvester und Neujahrstagen. Bitte verzichtet auf Feuerwerk!🙏

Mein dritter Versuch. Das Märchen vom Froschkönig als Amigurumi. Prinzesschen kann ich wohl besser als Drachen. #crochet #amigurumi #häkeln #Handarbeitsclub 🧶

Mein Katastrophendrachen. Ich war zwischendurch kurz davor, aufzugeben. Aber jetzt ist er OK geworden. Auf jeden Fall kann ich jetzt das Werben mit dem Slogan "no sew amigurumi" verstehen. *irres Lachen* #crochet #amigurumi #häkeln #Handarbeitsclub 🧶

Mein allererster Versuch. Nicht perfekt, aber ich habe eine Menge gelernt. Eine kleine Hexe, die sich in ihrem Kessel verwandeln kann. (Sie ist ein wenig glubschäugig, weil ich nicht die richtigen Augen da hatte.) #crochet #amigurumi #häkeln #Handarbeitsclub 🧶

Four staff!!!

This is shocking. I haven't encountered it yet, and I hope I never do, but …

Nur noch zusammennähen. 😭 #crochet #häkeln #Handarbeitsclub

Academics and technologists are sounding the alarm about a growing crisis in scholarship as we know it: AI-generated citations of nonexistent papers that have infested real journals. Despite being fake, the sources are widely assumed to be authentic the more they appear in published literature.

Don't steal pies this Christmas.

Ok, this is nuts. Once you see it you cannot unsee it. Do you see it? (OP @drgbuckingham.bsky.social )

I made so many eagle owl/et pics this year. The greatest, funniest often come in blurred quality...yet...well...enjoy!🥹🥰 🪶

Two more albatross species today; shy and grey-headed, and a white-chinned petrel that has followed the ship for hours #marineexplorer #Antarctica #aurora_expeditions #SAEF 🧪🦑

Ein Brett vom Catwalk hat sich gelöst. Vermutlich mitsamt Katze, ich habe nur den Knall gehört, dann kam mir schon das empörte Tier entgegen. Das Video zeigt die erste Bestandsaufnahme von Coco. Der Weg zurück klappte übrigens nicht. Sie musste nach einer halben Stunde "gerettet" werden. #Caturday

This is not a birth certificate and that footprint does not belong to the child discussed on the tablet. They're not even from the same city; the footprint is from Nippur, the text is from Ur. So why did the Penn Museum bring these objects together like this since 2016?

Wenn man sieht, wie viel Nistplätze 1 unsaniertes Haus bietet, wird klar, der jährl. Verlust, ohne OrniGutachten, bei Sanierungen ist enorm When you realise how many nesting places an unrenovated house offers, the scale of the yearly losses from renovations without an ornitho report becomes obvious

Today is the 56th anniversary of the first performance of Mahna Mahna on Sesame Street. You’re familiar with it by now, of course, but... well, it never hurts to be reminded, does it?

Pro tip: always include your hook in your progress photos so when you go back to the WIP three months later, you don't have to guess. #crochet 🧶

Want to walk into and through an actual Iron Age house…and UP THE STAIRS? Of course you bloody do. Come with me. Carn Liath broch, just sitting quietly beside the A9 as thousands whizz by without stopping. Their mistake. Far too excited to wait for #HillfortsWednesday

Yesterday's Word Count = 1,202 Moving on to Donaldson book 2.

Light pollution is a relatively easy-to-address environmental problem. I’ve tried talking about it through the lenses of human and wildlife wellbeing, plus preventing insect, bird, and bat fatalities. Never got as much conversation as this post. Yet another reason to be grateful for the aurora ❤️

„…soll am Samstagvormittag (…) während des Merz-Besuches deswegen ein Bier-Verbot verhängt werden“ Ansonsten wird also bereits am Vormittag bei der Jungen-Union gesoffen und irgendwie ist es ihnen auch anzumerken.

Urghh... it's as bad as I hoped it wasn't - these really are 'the first', 'the earliest', 'the only'. In terms of gold cash price they're not worth a huge amount, maybe £60k, if that - but in historical value, they're utterly priceless. So awful.😔 #Archaeology 🏺 1/2 www.bbc.com/news/article...

I adore the Feegles Terry invented many wonderful things over the course of writing Discworld but "angry blue Scottish pixies who will steal anything that's not nailed down and also the things that are, nails and all" is very high on the list

And of course there's this classic;

a remarkable flock of pigeons foraging on a brisk winter night in nyc i'm still documenting some of their nighttime activities, hopefully more to come #birds

This small fox basket is perfect for a variety of storage needs. Although its surface looks deceptively knitted, it’s actually made with tapestry crochet.

Trotz des Vetos des polnischen Präsidenten sucht das Umweltministerium nach einer Lösung für den Nationalpark Unteres Odertal. Ein wichtiges Signal für den Schutz der Oder-Auen und für echten grenzüberschreitenden Naturschutz. 🌿✨🐟 #SaveOder #Natur

No no no begs every archivist. You are never going to be able to find anything. Please don’t start using emojis in file names. Who asked for this? What fresh hell is next?
