"happy birthday" 49

"She programmed the IBM 7030 computer to deliver increasingly refined calculations for an extremely accurate model of the Earth's shape, optimized for what ultimately became the GPS orbit used by satellites." Also West, asking if she used GPS for navigation "I prefer maps." x] Amazing woman <3

A self-described "little farm girl" in the Jim Crow Era, Gladys West's complex and pioneering work for the U.S. Navy helped to improve billions of lives — and keep us from getting lost. n.pr/3YVSGJK

Merry writing the wrong year on prints and documents for the next month or so

A year of Nimbus zoomies is the only recap I’ve paid attention to

“many angry posts should have been naps or little packets of crackers” is deep wisdom and you don’t need to reproduce to embrace it!

The name "Popular Science" doesn't mean we shift our coverage depending on public opinion. It means we cover relevant subjects that are rigorously researched, reliable, and grounded in reality. And trans lives are grounded in reality. We see y'all. No matter what. www.popsci.com/science/tran...

making a gold foil postcard print :>

Did you know that every single background and sprite in our games is painstaking drawn and inked by hand? Every line matters, across literally thousands of illustrations. 😤

The Return This piece was inspired by the recent return of the spotted hyena to Egypt after 5,000 years, driven by climate change and shifting ecosystems. An animal long absent appears again. Not as something symbolic or old, but as a real presence that forces a new way of looking and understanding

Did you know that Workday is being sued because an AI tool they sell for hiring actually discriminates against marginalized people? This is my shocked face.

warmup! i just wanted to draw them hanging out... 💀🤡 #neonjawboneart

The Invitation

Trump has ordered a naval blockade of Venezuela, which is an act of war. Literally will go to war to protect pedophiles.

91.7%??????!!!! This makes it one of the most segregated industries and history will not look kindly on this era. This is why it's so important to support POC Writers and Creators. It's crucial to be a part of the solution and fight back against racism.

Every writer who generates a slop image for their work is a class traitor. "I can't afford a visual artist" So your solution is stabbing artists in the back? Stealing from them? Furthermore, slop-generated imagery suggests slop-generated writing. That's how you're presenting yourself.

Creative solidarity means: If you're a writer, do not use AI "art" or AI "voiceover" If you're an artist, do not use AI "writing" or AI "references" If you're a streamer/actor, do not use AI for backdrops, thumbnails, etc. Never help AI steal another medium No excuses, no shortcuts, no surrender.

The thing thats so insidious about using AI this way is that one of the main ways artists get hired are studios looking for art references and they find us and reach out. This is removing a major avenue to get work if they can just generate nameless derivations of our ideas.

Ahmed al Ahmed, the man who tackled one of the Bondi killers, became an Australian citizen 3 years ago. His deed was "his way of conveying his gratitude for staying in Australia, for being granted citizenship." He took 5 bullets, and fears he'll lose his left arm. www.smh.com.au/national/nsw...

we can kill them all if we just work together and ✨believe💫

Season's Greasons

Hair is one of my favorite subjects to paint.

HRT is a lifesaving treatment the same way insulin and cancer medications are, and any/all trans people should be deeply suspicious of anyone trying to argue otherwise.

No but really, it was so fun, on a purely conceptual level, it was the most gender queer and versatile pairing I've ever seen. It even can be yuri if you are daring enough!

in retrospect Termite Greg may not have been the best one to take the group holiday photo
