Scientists got bored after watching the Earth rotate for 24 hours. So they called it a day

Wonder if he/she was communicating something or trying to shake off a barnacle, but I have a 2.5 minute video of just straight tail slaps lol

yeehaw!!

Managed to see quite a few whales today! Didn’t capture any breeches on video this year either sadly. But hopefully next time.

Picked up some goodies from a little craft fair this afternoon :)

The storm that lasted several days cleared up and it’s sunny again. The weather out here doesn’t change much but something in the wind and color of the sky definitely feels like the warmer and calmer season is on its way in.

When Link reflexively reached for the torch to help Zelda out at the beginning of TotK… that just instantly told you everything you needed to know about his personality in one moment

Snow???!

We now have general demonization of and skepticism surrounding tylenol and fentanyl, a nationwide shortage of injectible opioids (morphine, dilaudid) that we’re fcking rationing over here, as well as low stock of common benzos like Ativan… what next, universe? Insulin? IV fluids?? Rocephin?

Loaded up Splatoon 3 for the first time in over a year a few nights ago and enjoyed my handful of rounds in Grizzco. PvP held up too. It’s a lot faster and more dynamic than I remember it being. And thankfully I didn’t experience virtually any connection issues that time around

Well, I finally wound up burning myself. Surprised it took this long. It was the same thumb I cut into a few months ago 😭 But I baked a bunch of cookies to share with coworkers tomorrow on a lame ass Monday

Breaking: Tragedy at the Winter Olympics

I’ve lost track of how many days I’ve spent trying to clear M10S. It’s insane. I think I missed my opportunity to clear at a decent pace with the good players because of my work schedule and time zone, but this is miserable. Even reclear parties I’ve asked to join aren’t consistent

My co-author Dr. Megan Condis and I gathered nearly 3,000 print ads from the console wars era to analyze whether the popular narrative that "Sega was for rad teens and Nintendo was for babies" actually holds up. The results paint a slightly more nuanced picture. Read about it on @aftermath.site!

Project Hail Mary is February’s book for our sci-fi book club. I’m about halfway through. It seems everyone who’s spoken up about it so far genuinely loves it, and I’m enjoying it too, but there’s still a *lot* of pop-sci stuff that isn’t real or accurate that I’m noticing.

I've noticed a microgenre shift in SF over the last year - or possibly just in the books I've come across. Specifically, a bit of a boom in big concept space opera books working in the Banks/Hamilton ideaspace. Meaning SF that simultaneously delivers a strong action storyline against a backdrop

Ignore how absolutely scuffed these cookies look in regards to the sad chocolate chip placement - this recipe (using a mix of bread flour and cake flour) is my favorite by far

Thinkinge of askinge Chat GPT a questioun about your plannes, thoughtes, ideas? Trye a tarot deck ynstead. Cheaper, bettir for the environment, bettir resultes, not evil.

I got the hiiiimb!!!!! The scree finally blessed me with his presence 😭 Potato cam pic because I was too excited to go through the ps5 pic upload process lol Thank you #ffxiv!!

If you are looking for a quick escape, here’s the start of a cozy scifi mystery where everything turns out okay. #scifi #sciencefiction

Pilot makes a modular multipen called a Coleto that you can swap out different color inks but they also make mechanical pencil components for it. So I loaded it up with 2h, 2b, and 4b lead plus an eraser component and now I have the ultimate pencil, the Omega Pencil.

The sci-fi art of John Berkey Berkey, along with Burns, Foss, Harris, Whelan and Mead defined sci-fi art for me growing up.

Been making an effort to doodle more on paper lately. Fun to crank out some little guys free of any Big Art™ pressure

You're looking at an incredible image of the star forming region Cepheus A. It contains a massive protostar with 16 times the mass of the Sun, part of a recent survey. https://www.universetoday.com/articles/studying-massive-and-mysterious-young-protostars-with-the-hubble

Just remembered it’s been a minute since the last Nintendo Direct was announced. Bout that time huh?

I hear you like Metroid.

who the fuck WANTS their posts to go viral, have you ever had that actually happen? it's like getting a winning pull on a slot machine if wasps started pouring out the bottom instead of quarters

Crafting from storage is the highlight of the AC:NH update for me. Being able to decorate the hotel rooms is super nice, too. It’s a lite version of the paid DLC but I’m 100% okay with that (as someone who decorated every available spot in the DLC 😅). Wish the museum had an update too, but alas.

Mauna Loa looks like it’s taller than the mountain we’re standing on 🤔 perspective. It was cold as all get out lol 😩

Made it to the top of Mauna Kea this evening to see the sunset :) And found some snow!

“this is fine”
