Into art, illustration, writing, and board games. Favorite subjects to draw or photograph are buildings and landscapes, and I like writing about the possibility that everything could turn out even better than we imagine. (she/her) #art #photography #wip

Attention Ecologists! We are going to need *a lot* of ecologists. The First Lego League Teams need to speak with a scientist about their projects every year. Every year it's a different type of scientist. Last year was archaeologists. This year, ecologists! Sign up: docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

A fish is a teacher, wearing a button-up shirt with a collar. He says "Volunteer to speak with classrooms in front of a chalkboard that says "Skype a scientist needs YOU!". A snail on his desk says Help! And a shrimp says "Lego league is coming!" and a nervous seahorse says "this year's theme is ecosystems"

If a fish was a schoolteacher would they wear a short sleeve button up shirt and a tie, or JUST a tie?

If you ever find yourself in need of some art but short on time or funds, this is a great list of resources you can use right now, for free.

Public Domain Art is the lifeblood of small tabletop rpgs, but it can be a nightmare trying to find the right art and license. This week, I’ve re-uploaded my old list from 2020 (with updates) of public domain websites. That's 500,000+ public domain paintings, photos, maps, and film. Link below 🔗👇

Question for artists out there: Does anyone have a non-Adobe solution for automating signature and/or watermark placement on a batch of images? I'm using Lightroom right now, but would like something else. Windows preferred. Thanks in advance!

...I so commonly see SO much attention paid to racists being stupid and so little to material support for those they attack or for the rich tapestry of Black art in general. Often, the work itself is buried in the uproar. What if we instead lifted such work and spent our time on that?

Good morning everyone, I'm looking for some gardening help today. Everything purple you see here got mowed down to dirt level today. The landscaper insists the roots are still there. My question: what's the best way I can help these plants recover? Thanks in advance. MA. #plants #gardening #help

A photograph of a bed of purple-blooming ajuga flowers over their green leafy ground-covering base, with a glowing green forest in the background. This got cut back to dirt level, though we believe the roots are still in place. Is there anything I can do to help the roots come back to leaves? Any chance they will come back this year? I'm not a green thumb, so even very basic advice is appreciated. We're in Massachusetts.

Settings > Moderation Advanced: Bluesky Moderation Service > List of a bunch more settings. (It's all the way at the bottom of the screen. This is not just a list of the moderation services you have enabled, each has settings.) Not sure why it's split in to two different setting lists, but it is.

PSA: Bluesky's new auto-tagging moderation stuff is a disaster. Disable it. Go into Settings on the Bluesky site and enable adult content and set everything to Warn at most, which makes posts opt-in. Hide just vanishes posts. Then go into Advanced/Bluesky Mod Service and do the same on everything.
