Double ducks west of Mallacoota, East Gippsland, VIC. Didn't see a lot of large duck orchids (Caleana major) on my couple of brief East Gippsland trips this year but did see scattered plants in full flight at a couple of locations. #orchids #inthefield #ozplants

Bit of a milestone yesterday. 30th anniversary with the husband - 30 years together, 20 of those civil-unioned/married.
More than half my lifetime. Now I feel old :-P
He's a lovely bloke, well worth being married to <3

Olms (Proteus anguinus) look like you took an axolotl & stretched them out. 'Dachshund axolotls', if you will.
They're a cave-dwelling salamander that live deep under the Alps of Central Europe. When floods flushed them out to streams, they were described as 'baby dragons'.
And they lack eyes...

I think the biggest pitfall of sci-fi/fantasy storytelling, especially for worldbuilders, in the infodump.
You're (rightfully) just so proud of all the work you put into creating a cohesive setting that you just wanna PUKE it all over readers/watchers on page one.

This is a great analogy.
Someone recently compared AI to asbestos: useful in controlled scientific environments, but hyped as something that needed to be inside every home and business.

#kikorangi - picked these up at the rip-off duopoly… sorry, supermarket recently. Can recommend, crisp up beautifully, tasty, slight kick, reminiscent of KFC. Processed meat, yada yada, but very nice.

Had a (professional, automated) interaction with an infamous AoNZ person today. Very smooth transaction and I can’t fault it or them. Was very professional myself, but ooooooooh… the temptation to be so naughty & cut loose with OPINIONS… it’s eating me up. Would never, but, just… oooooooh 😤

A little project my husband @cyanous.bsky.social and I have worked on with Wolzad games is a TTRPG app that helps brainstorm ideas for DMs! Lots of NPCs and scenarios to randomize. The app itself is free, but there is currently a backer kit running for new stuff! Check it out :) tinyurl.com/nhazshs

The kind of person who can look at chatgpt and still use it, is the exact kind of person who would have a million excuses for supporting a fascist. And they'll use the same excuses and rationalizations for both.
Probably using chatgpt to regurgitate suitably mealymouthed word salad.

AS PER MY LAST CLAY TABLET…
Everyone please diligently check your candy this year. I cracked open a snickers bar and not only did I find a copper ingot, but it was of poor quality.
Worse still, when my man Nanni confronted my neighbor about it, he was treated with disdain.

Bevis’ threads on these competitions spark joy 😁
It's Sunday afternoon, it's pissing it down outside (here in Manchester at least) and I'm avoiding doing the ironing so that seems reason enough to do the 2022 #MisterGlobal thread. If it's you're first thread please read the linked one here before we get on with the insanity and gloriousness.
OK, I'm going to focus on the positives of the people who enjoyed the #MisterGlobal 2025 thread and gave context for outfits that I didn't have and go back and post the 2019, 2021 and 2022 contest as well (there was no 2020 contest for obvious reasons) because I originally posted them elsewhere

The people who called you a predator for being gay? They’re calling trans women predators now. The ones who said you were grooming kids? Same word, just a different target. Drag queens. Trans teachers.

Why do I include diverse characters (race, gender, sexuality, etc) in my books? Three reasons:
1. So people see themselves reflected in stories;
2. So people see others reflected in stories;
3. Because that's how the world is everywhere around us.
Not including diversity is a choice.
