I think my problem with Outdoorsman is they filled his beard in way too much. He wouldn’t look like that. He’d look like Kurt Russell in The Thing.
Grainy chest-up screenshot of a man who is supposedly Russell Adler in black ops 6. He’s white with a dark bushy beard that is only interrupted by his lips. No skin around his lips shows. His beard is very coarse. He wears a dark red flannel, a tactical vest, red metallic sunglasses, and an official-looking baseball cap. Screenshot of Kurt Russell in the movie The thing. He has a similar dark beard that’s a little less coarse, a couple of inches shorter, and it’s lighter and less filled in around the mouth.

Hey #Minneapolis folks, I just tried to take the bus down 38th and not only did my bus get spontaneously canceled, but I watched 2 cars in the span of 25 minutes spin out, wind up on the sidewalk and hit street signs. So if you can, I suggest staying home.

In the foyer, where the snow shovels stand idle in a corner, a long haired tortoiseshell cat and an orange tabby cat stare at a very bright green toy grasshopper dangling on the end of a string. The orange cat is just starting to lift one paw to swat at the toy.

Sponsors are going to crack down on ai written proposals. NIH already has-they released new guidance this year stating a researcher can only submit 6 grants a year now. There was never a limit before but they cited a case of a single PI who submitted like 40 applications, all ai, and were like nope

Folks, I REALLY appreciate y'all adding alt text to screenshots but the next step is to please take like... 10 seconds to edit the text. The amount of gibberish OCR picks up that you can just cut out is pretty intense.

Example:
Screenshot of alt text from a Twitter thread. There's random numbers, characters, and symbols in between every section of it where OCR has tried to make sense of Twitter formatting. None of it was necessary to leave in and would be hectic to listen to on a screen reader.

Do I need to start another "masking is hot" thread??

Also a new profile pic because the leather jacket in the old one was too hot for this weather. The earrings say (LAND) (BACK), and I fished the jumpsuit out of a bin at an estate sale at a crazy old house this past weekend
Selfie photo of a person with short light brown hair and eyeglasses, wearing a black n95 mask, a black tank top & black patterned jumpsuit, and gold hoop earrings with words on them. The background is a crepe myrtle tree on a pedestrianized south Baltimore street.

I missed #ArtAdventCalendar Day 24, so here it is now: Old New Orleans, probably still the biggest wycinanki piece I've done, at 12"x14", Feb–March 2023. Done in commemoration of my favorite PhD advisor's retirement
Photo of a cut-paper art piece depicting the French Quarter of New Orleans with the cathedral in the center. Predominant colors are green and grey and yellow and brick red. There are tiny Brazil, France, and USA flags hanging from one of the buildings. Mirror selfie photo of the artist holding up the art piece from the previous pic, to show how big it is (a big art piece!!), inside a small apartment foyer.

Please enjoy this photo of the Horace and Jasper bodypillows my aunt crafted for me when I was 5 years old and brain-meltingly obsessed with 101 Dalmatians.
Handmade pillows of the two henchmen from the 101 Dalmatians movie, crafted by an older family member to satisfy a deranged child who had memorized the entire 101 Dalmatians kid's book before she could even read. (I wanted plush toys of the villains to menace my cute plush toy puppies and those just didn't exist, for some mysterious reason...)

this was a reply but I really like it as a post so

enjoy some recent joyful moments of mine with me
vaqueerios.bsky.social russell adler’s favorite PhD candidate @vaqueerios.bsky.social · 2d
recent moments pictured (and elaborated in alt text):

1) my absolute rabbit of a cat
2) a drawing I made anthropomorphizing when my friend mistakenly typed “lolp” instead of “lol”
3) killer sunset
4) other cat looking toward me upside-down-ly
upright phone flash photo of a tiny sleeping cat. She is curled up quite roundly on her side with her head resting back against my socked foot, and she is slotted snugly between my foot and the couch cushion. She is brown tabby with occasional orange spots including the whole bottom right of her face. One bright white paw is tucked against her chest. Crude light blue line drawing on a black background. A stick person has their legs standing straight and their torso bent forward at a ninety degree angle from their hips. They have a cartoonishly large round behind with a somewhat conspicuous buttcrack. Their arms are straight up in the air. They have a mild and innocent smile. The figure kind of looks like the text “lolp.” Sort of wide angle photograph of a brilliant orange and purple sunset viewed through the black silhouettes of a few naked trees. Viewer is sitting on a brick wall looking over a parking lot toward the disappeared sun. Everything that is lit is toned in a pink-orange color. Photo. A pale orange cat with a white chest and nose lies in a plastic wrapped cardboard box that his litter was sold in. He is basking in the sun on his side, body facing away but head tipped back looking with his face upside down at the viewer. One of his eyes is brightly lit by the sun and is a pale orange brown color with an almost invisible narrow pupil.

It arrived late because of USPS, but my husband got me some gorgeous earrings from @peculiarityshop.bsky.social for Christmas and they are *perfect*.
Two pairs of earrings. The pair on the left has long brass pieces that end in a blue-green crystal. The pair on the left has a brass bead, a purple metallic, and a ceramic piece with a dreamy image of a distant castle. Both are long, dangly, and beautiful.

Earlier this year, we published an article on how women are increasingly seeking out testosterone to help with energy or their sex lives. We followed up with one woman who went on testosterone to help with her menopausal symptoms. The effects had unexpected consequences for her marriage.

i took a very long time to figure out what the fuck was wrong with me and knew deep in my heart that there was a medication that would fix me so i tried testosterone to see if it was that. it wasn't (i needed amphetamines) but it was extremely clarifying to be able to try
