I’ve been camping and came across a herd of 20+ ranch mares and their foals. There was a cremello baby I got to pet. 🥹

how to make magpie noise: laugh (not a chuckle, but like HA-HA-HA-), do it slightly silently, but not like a dog panting, more like if you're trying to ruin your vocal cord by turing it into a percussion instrument like kak kak kak or a cog that needs lubricant, or like a car starting indefinitely

Julien Offray de La Mettrie’s 1747 book Man a Machine claimed humans were nothing but intricate automata — it was banned, and he fled France.

Early anatomists called the brain “a gland that secretes thought.” The metaphor of the mind as fluid preceded the idea of the brain as an electrical device.

CHILDREN OF THE SEA × LITTLE PRINCE

A boy dives into his dying goldfish’s tank and is swept through evolutionary time itself, from ancient seas to land’s first breath, to learn how to let go.

I must issue an apology - I have clearly been misinterpreting the data and have resized the Kem Kem fauna accordingly.

I am *definitely* not being held at beak-point by Leptostomia.

The lineup of Kem Kem fauna to scale with our Leptostomia overlord towering above the rest - as it should be

Flamingo dragon color tests. I’m playing with the limited pinks available in the Luminance line of colored pencils. It’s a great exercise!
