Okay peeps, I know I’m OLD (47) but I cannot believe NOT ONE OF YOU a) got this joke or b) chuckled even for a moment. Maybe I’m the only one who had a dad that would shout “RENEW! RENEW!!” at random times when the word renew was used in conversation. 😅

This story is the story we all need today: a good dog finding good people through the kindness of other good people and the remarkable way the internet can still be a force for great good.

New awareness campaign

Today is Sunday and what the world needs is a chonky baby rolling around in a sunbeam. Enjoy our Pippin being his fluffy self. #cats #catsky

Logan Five’s new custom plate just dropped.

If you feel shackled to a business, an idea, a project you’ve invested time/money in, but it doesn’t bring you joy… let it go. Absolve yourself of that guilt and move on. Don’t keep flogging yourself over something that no longer suits you.

The can-do let’s-help spirit of the OG internet community is still here, and never has it been more present than in this saga. Scroll back through Cat’s posts for the full beautiful story, it’s the best thing you’ll read (nonfiction) in 2025. 🥹

Nothing like turning to your partner in crime, sitting in bed, and shouting “LEAVERITE?!?” in each other’s faces 😂 A leaverite reference on NATIONAL TV?! Wtaf.

Flashing my beliefs at the office today, courtesy of @surlyamy.bsky.social 😘 (I just got a Make Art pendant as well but it matches better with my Friday scrub top.)

Also.

In other @rckhnd.com news I JUST FOUND MY MISSING BOX OF ORANGE HAMMERS that’s been missing for two months. 😐 They were on a shelf in our office under some cutting boards. I was standing there looking for a box to ship this order in and saw it and thought that’s the right size I wonder what’s in it

Going to AGU? BUY Emily’s excellent space jewelry!! I love my solar system bracelet.

This is only the third or fourth order from someone we don’t know personally, and afaik the second one resulting from our print ad? YAYYYY ⭐️

Ok I’m never complaining about gem show booth rates ever EVER again. 💀

Today is better than yesterday, thanks for the support 💜💜

Hi, folks Just finished a revamp of my space-art website. It's an on-line gallery of my most recent space- and astronomy-related illustrations and animations: www.space-art.co.uk/index.php Please do give it a gander. And if you would be so kind, repost this for me. :-) #sciart #spaceart

Today’s #Spacetober is Space Station, apparently. I got something for that. Not sure if I ever posted this over here. www.monkeyminionpress.com/products/int...

Yay break down at work.

Ignore all laws about altering historic properties ✅ Pave over Rose Garden for tacky Mar-A-Lardo Patio ✅ Demolish East Wing after lying that "It won't interfere with the current building. It'll be near it but not touching it" ✅ Build gaudy $250M Ballroom as public struggles financially ✅ #Ugh🤢✅

OKAY PEOPLE YOU KNOW THE DRILL: HIT THAT FOLLOW BUTTON This is a Canadian small press, with a Canadian editor, so LET'S GET THOSE CANADIAN CLICKS (worldwide clicks also appreciated and loved equally, but I can't bully you in the same manner as I can Canadians) www.kickstarter.com/projects/tyc...

#SpacetoberChallenge day 20: #Telescope - I always come back to Hubble imagery, even though newer telescopes like JWST see more clearly in other wavelengths—this was the view of the universe that inspired me. Pearlescent #watercolor on black paper. #SciArt #illustration #SpaceArt #SpaceArtist

Just me doing an elaborate dance routine on the front porch of burnout, nothing to see here. 🙄

#SpacetoberChallenge day 15: #BlackHole - one I did last year but I like how it came out (and it sure does shimmer in the light!) #SciArt #illustration #SpaceArt #SpaceArtist

I'm Amy and I paint celestial pottery with glaze ✨ This started when I wanted to take us on an adventure during the pandemic lockdown. Now, offering pots like these to be part of your daily life feels like another way to keep hope alive. Newsletter for restocks: amyraehill.com #PortfolioDay

Ohhh apparently it's #PortfolioDay again! I'm Vicky, I paint space and use genuine space dust in my original pieces! Light pollution is such a HUGE issue, that I've made it my life's mission to bring to stars to everyone! I dabble in astrophotography occasionally too.💜💫 🔭🧪🐡🖌🎨📷

Check out this important thread about protein powder lead. In America, things that are considered "dietary supplements" are only very mildly regulated, if at all.

Huzzah, it’s #PortfolioDay ! I’m Danielle and I paint and illustrate spacecraft, planets, and interesting landscapes in watercolor and ink. Fond of ink textures and pointillism. No AI here, just space and rocks/geology. 🪐🪨🚀 Prints and originals available at planetaryartist.com Thanks for looking!

Cat ownership is mostly having conversations with yourself that sound completely unhinged, but in reality refer to cat toys, like “I see they left the eye of newt on the bathroom floor” or “someone gifted me the leg-less shrimp, how sweet.”

Work is great today, I wish the elevator was having maintenance every week. 😅 (light schedule of patients since they have to climb four flights of stairs to the third floor.)

#SpacetoberChallenge day 11: #Asteroid - FAREWELL TO BENNU, one of my favorite recent #watercolor paintings, showing the dusty surface of #Bennu with a tiny #OSIRIS-REx heading home to earth in the corner. #SciArt #illustration #SpaceArt #SpaceArtist #AstroArt #Spacetober2025 #Spacetober

But technically she only needed one….

I wrote up a seven-day mapping trip for field camp AND HAND-DREW THE GEOLOGICAL MAP in an all-nighter the night before it was due, on Jolt Cola, turned it in at 8 am, and got in the van to go to the next location. Got an A. GenAI can go fuck itself.

Saw a space shuttle launch in person from the KSC press site and made some of the best friends of my life. Social media literally changed my life.

Okay #geology and #space friends, I need opinions. Working on a new shirt/sticker design for @rckhnd.com . Bottom is the first text I came up with, but then I thought, NASA is built on acronyms so ROCKS should be an ACRONYM. (Maybe not the best acronym—open to suggestions.) Which do you prefer?

I am STUPIDLY EXCITED about this. My first trademark ever! 😍 What a process this was.
