I know next to nothing about macro photography but this bee looks sooo good.

I wrote a sort of text snippet manager using AutoHotKey, which slowly morphed into a sort of Clippy clone but with a chibi bird mascot.
Someone at my former job found it and copied it to all the computers, people found out who the author was, and now I'm the 'little chicken program guy'. #developer

I died probably a hundred times. That steel soul stuff is waaay out of my league.

And so, the gauntlet begins. Avoiding Silksong spoilers before I finish the game.

Musk's takeover of Twitter is an example of what people need to desperately flee away from.

Hopefully Bluesky will stay away from enshittification and platforming of bigoted, narcissistic and violently ignorant people.

I'm not American, but watching a country that a lot of people look up to or depend on implode like this feels unreal. This one just hit different for me because I'm in a healthcare profession. My deepest sympathies.
Yesterday there was an attempted mass murder of CDC staff and yet RFK the Lesser has not directly spoken to the head of the CDC. Not a single word condemning the violence from him or the President.

Turns out T injections and methylene blue can’t fill the empty space where a heart would.

I have done absolutely nothing productive for the last month or so. I painted my first Ultramarine though. Have a look.

The loss of a 'habitable ambient temperature' is a rather potent nightmare.
The devastation on its way is unimaginable - like nothing humanity has ever witnessed before - and everyone will wish they had been climate activists and ‘hysterics’ when they had the chance. We are in a moment of unprecedented stupidity

Bus crapped out and we've been two hours parked on the roadside, how's your weekend going?

OK I was thinking, I could try posting some interesting pathology slides weekly.
I'm not an authority by any means, but it'd be interesting to discuss, if anyone's interested.

I'd also like pick up my very neglected drawing skills, maybe I could motivate myself to upload a doodle weekly as well.

Bluesky seems more and more like a spiritual succesor to Twitter back in the good days, before it got terminally enshittified.

Take care of your retinas, everyone.

It sometimes feels like Twitter's going to implode any day now, yet at the same time it seems like it's too big to fail.
Anyway, here's the backup account!
