Growing resentful of all those university presses sending me emails about book sales. My shopping cart is way bigger than my wallet or my free time. Now I understand that NPR article about Gen Z stressing over micro trends, haha

I swore I would never write this game but I forgot February only has 28 days, and I needed an easy win for the Patreon before the month ended, so here is "Trapped in an Elevator with Ayn Rand" the One Page RPG

This is the One Page RPG called Trapped in an Elevator with Ayn Rand. It's not my best work.

Lavishly woven in fine wool and silk with silver and gilded threads, the seven wall hangings collectively known as “The Unicorn Tapestries” are certainly amongst the most spectacular surviving artworks of the late Middle Ages: publicdomainreview.org/collection/t...

This is a grievous loss of archival material — the Theosophical Society was tremendously influential both for the development of modern religions and for the academic study of religion.

The Wild Hunt News @thewildhunt.bsky.social · Jan 9

Multiple reports say that the building housing the Theosophical Society of America in Los Angeles has been destroyed along with the majority of its artifacts by the devastating fires.

Results of the stream #digitalpainting #landscape #mountains #NicholasRoerich

A digital painting of a gigantic mountain range that towers over a flat yellow valley floor. White snow caps the dark gray mountains. Clouds float in a bright blue sky and cast shadows over the valley. A tiny village lies at the center of the image.

I'm still kinda not sure of what direction I would like Goblinological Fantasies to go, but if you got a PhD thesis that you want a layman to read and grill you about for a podcast *points thumbs* I'm right here

And the conversation about foodways inspired this illustration about goblins preparing nuts and sardines. #DnD #FantasyArt

A black and white digital drawing of two goblins. The female goblin is sitting on a blanket on the ground. A large flat stone covered in large leaves is positioned between her legs. Nuts are piled on top of the leaves. The female goblin is smashing the nuts with a human skull. The male goblin is standing nearby. He is holding a skull filled with sardines. There is a caption describing a song: bish bash, smish smash. beat the nuts into a mush. crack crunk, thud thunk. mix the mash with fists of fish.

Are we talking about food? I had this lovely conversation with Doctor Yasui @ponopls.bsky.social about ancient starches in Jomon Japan. I need to get back to this project once I can find time again

Thanks to everyone who attended our panel on Democratising Science at the #NHMExplorers Conference! Apologies that I was unable to stick around but it was amazing to share the space with (much more talented!) people doing incredible work within the environmental sciences.

Results of the stream:
A goblin fairy
#fantasyart #monster

A black and white digital drawing of a fairy creature. They resemble a goblin wearing a tunic with fungal designs and a pleated skirt. They are holding a wand made from a femur bone as the handle and crossed sticks as the head of the wand. Their face is a large beak and bulging eyes. It is unclear if it is a mask or not. On their back is a large spade shape and bat wings.
