This is Ladybird. She's politely requesting butt pats. Will accept them for as long as you're willing to provide them. Could be days. Weeks even. 13/10 (TT: christina.stamper5)

Cicadas are one of the small things I miss so much about Louisiana. Sitting on the back porch of my house, drinking ice tea in the summer evenings and listening to them sing

Having said that I do not miss getting hit in the face by one when riding bikes

Another cicada pic. Just because their ‘singing’ at the moment makes it feel like my tinnitus volume has been multiplied by an unbelievable degree.

I miss SGI, which IMHO was the most interesting of the proprietary UNIX variants. Dead from poor leadership, just like all the others :( #unix

I love how Jobs Peak finds a clear spot and is framed by clouds.

Looking across a vast brown field in the Carson Valley to the snowy eastern side of the Sierra Nevada mountain range. Most of the range is obscured by clouds, but one snowy peak (Jobs Peak) appears through the frame of clouds. There are some patches of blue sky at the top of the image. Carson Valley, Nevada

I can't tell if my MAGA neighbor is standing in his yard in his underwear screaming "Seahawks!" or if he's screaming "seig heil!" like he did when trump won

Turkey vultures hanging out on some fence posts. These photos were taken at different times, but it's the same spot, which is very popular with the vultures.

A very large turkey vulture is sitting on a wooden post alongside a hiking and horse trail in the green hills of San Luis Obispo. There are some green shrubs up against the broken wooden fence, and the hills in the distance are a bright green. Laguna Lake Open Space/Cerro San Luis Obispo, California Two turkey vultures are sitting on separate wooden posts of a barbed wire fence in the green hills of San Luis Obispo. Next to the fence is a dirt hiking and horse trail. One of the vultures has his wings spread upward. Laguna Lake Open Space/Cerro San Luis Obispo, California

I made this Jackrabbit lamp for my wedding photographer as a thank you present. She was kind enough to take portfolio quailty pictures of it for me.

My favorite artifact in the "you don't need AI to do art" discourse is, of course, screenwriter Dan O'Bannon's sketch of the facehugger to explain it to Giger.
A 2 panel sketch disgram of a 1 meter tall pod. in the second panel, an oval section pops off and a demonic little face with short tentacles flies out, crudely drawn.

Bright sunlight is shining on trees full of ice clinging to the bare branches, looking like huge diamonds.

Bright sunlight is shining on trees full of ice clinging to the bare branches, looking like huge diamonds. Sparkling snow covers the ground, and the snowy eastern Sierra Nevada mountains are in the background. This is in a residential neighborhood, so one house is also in the background. The sky is bright blue. Sheridan Acres in the Carson Valley near Lake Tahoe, Nevada

A scene from Ottawa’s Experimental Farm. Rows of utility poles and fencing cut paths through a nearly snow-obscured landscape. Apartment lights and traffic lights punctuate the horizon.
