Hello Bluesky! Do you know the phenomenon of pareidolia? On this account I’ll show you what I see in stains, shadows and discarded tissues 🩷

Bird nests made from anti-bird spikes?! 🤯

Hi, I'm a nest researcher 👋 and new here on BlueSky, sharing the craziest #bird nests I've ever found. 👀 Today, I’m sharing my discovery of rebellious birds that build nests out of anti-bird spikes. And honestly, it's like telling a joke...

A thread. 🧵

'Rolling hills by the Irish coast' - I don't think I've shared this landscape yet! It was a commission completed in Autumn 2024, they wanted an aerial inspired by a specific region of the Irish coast :) I loved the curious field shapes! #embroidery #fibrearts

We CT scanned thousands of vertebrates from US natural history collections and made them freely available. Countless people have used the data for research (>200 pubs) and to learn anatomy/morphology.

Over the past days, I've been seeing the image of the famous Hollywood sign in flames shared by people who think it's a real photo. It's not, it's AI-generated, and I'm not going to share it here. But it got me thinking about #PlatformRealism – why does this image resonate with so many people?

Gibt es keine Möglichkeit mehr, Kleinkram von privat an privat in die USA zu schicken, ohne arm zu werden? 12 € Porto für Warenwert 20 € ist ja völlig utopisch. Warenpost International nur für Geschäftskunden, Post/DHL verrät dafür nicht einmal mehr Preise ohne Anmeldung. Hilfe?

These strange Tree Troll creatures just sort of appear from the tip of my pencil from time to time.

I am sorry for writing this.
Unless you like it.
I do.

"Xibalba" is the second in a series of three dark and very abstract pieces written for orchestral instruments.

Falls ihr den Labler für Pronomen noch nicht kennt:
Abonnieren und dann die eigenen Pronomen liken.

Es ist so cool, dass dadurch die Pronomen direkt unter dem Namen auftauchen.
Gönnt euch!
Es gibt hier auf Bluesky einen Pronomen Labler. Den könnt ihr abonnieren. Dann seht ihr unter dem Namen der nutzenden Personen die passenden Pronomen.

Eure eigenen Pronomen werden angezeigt, wenn ihr bei den Beiträgen die entsprechenden liked.

Hello everyone! This is my first post on here after abandoning X at long last. I'm looking forward to finding a new creative community on here :) I'm sharing my favourite aerial embroidery landscape I've ever done for my first post here - 'A peaceful place (somewhere out there)' 💚

When an article says "some scientists think" then remember this: I, a scientist, once thought I could fit a whole orange in my mouth. I could, it turns out, get it in there, but I hadn't given sufficient thought to the reverse operation.

The latest proof print of my Flying Dutchman etching project. Going to push the lighting more. Maybe the next print will be the finished state.

Arrived today, they turned out so great!
Great news! The books arrived at the distributor, and as of yesterday have all shipped to customers! I'm so happy Megastructures was popular enough to warrant a second printing. Once the dust settles, I'll put any leftovers up on my store, and will notify people here. #scifi

Wahrscheinlich mit die düsterste und abstrakteste Musik, die ich je gemacht habe (das Erste in einer Serie von drei kleinen Stücken). Für Orchester. www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Vd1...

Kid has an English assignment, where school has kids first submit essay to an "AI checker." Kid did not use AI. AI checker says the use of the word "devoid" magically turned essay into 18% AI written. Changing "devoid" makes it drop to 0%. We're spending time "un-AI-ing" an essay that has no AI.
