The D stands for Disappointment

I have painted something that I’m genuinely proud of! Whitby Abbey, from a reference on Unsplash. Watercolour on Arches Rough (grain torchon), 9” x 12”. #watercolour #aquarelle

I do love Carrot.

Most riveting thing I've seen all week

Without changing my opinion that nobody should be a billionaire, I do wonder what life would be like if the billionaires were all a result of menopausal rage.

The Facial Expressions of Tethys by artist Julius von Bismarck. A suspended high-sea buoy that moves in real time. Sensors on a twin buoy out in the Atlantic Ocean send live satellite data to motors inside the museum. This makes the indoor buoy copy the exact, real-time movements of the ocean waves.

True story.

They’re helping

Thing is, my kitchen still isn’t finished so he’s coming back tomorrow. I don’t particularly want to be alone with him; he backed off when I said no, but kept coming back 5 mins later and asking again. Like I said, ugh.

mathematicians now feel like they have to be secretive about what they do in case it gets stolen by AI. graph theorists arent too worried about this though because they’ve already been doing discreet mathematics

What sort of idiot calls this “beautiful”? Oh, right. Someone who was apparently day drinking while tiling my kitchen. Ugh.

A puppet performing a puppet on the radio!! Yes please… #behindthescenes

Here's my new video for anyone who missed it

Medusa but her hair is an anaconda

Whoever decided to promote Coyote vs Acme by letting Wile E do an AMA using only signs deserves all the praise.

Behold: the frog life cycle as it should appear in science textbooks (they ALWAYS leave out ghost 🙄) #art #frogs #queerart

Saw @joznorris.bsky.social is Hugh Jackman is the Phantom of the Opera and yes it’s a WIP but the polished bits had me laughing so hard I couldn’t breathe (also it explained his @theacms.bsky.social set a while back). My only real feedback is that it needs more singing cos he’s got a great voice.

Trekked into London yesterday and yup, it’s still exhausting. Bus to station, train to St. Pancras, pop out for a wee & a coffee, tube to Piccadilly Circus, early meal, show, +1 drink, tube to King’s Cross, train to Cambridge, bus home. 8 hours in total. I’ve only just woken up enough to post.

I got the shot. I've been scheming and hoping the conditions would work out for this for two weeks!! 🪶

The best tribute to Dolly Parton is that she regularly and repeatedly refused to have anything to do with Piers Morgan

Feels like a lot more dog owners need to know their dog is not allowed to be out of control *anywhere* - even in their own home!

well i doubt anyone on this app will be very interested but my friend sent over some Big Garfield travel pics

I cannot express this any better.... the frustration is real

Last Train To Clarksvillage of the Damned. YES I AM PROUD OF THIS ONE.

This is a good thread. The "this is not the right time for this" thing specifically rings true for me. Just a soul-deep "I cannot do that yet, for secret but immovable reasons".

Was really not expecting this to be so good but wow! 👏👏

I really really want to feel as excited as I would have been before Marvel turned Cap 3 into an Iron Man film, then completely THREW CAP’S ENTIRE CHARACTERISATION DOWN THE TOILET in Endgame (also screwing over Peggy’s entire family and Bucky while they were at it).

you might be cool but are you snake wearing a chicken hat cool
