✨Reintroduction post!

I'm Harkthorn, and I like to draw mostly fantasy and wildlife art-especially griffons, dragons, birds, and big cats. I also post a lot of bird photos-both of my three parrots, and of the pigeon flock that visits my window, especially Coopuccino (shown here with his mate)

The Purple-throated Carib females’ bills are longer and more curved than males. This sexual dimorphism has produced a coevolutionary relationship with bihai and caribbaea species of Heliconia plant, with each flower evolving color morphs that best attract their primary pollinator.

How is AI *really* impacting jobs?

Henley Chiu, the CTO of Revealera, a jobs data analysis firm, analyzed 180 million jobs listings in 2024 and 2025, in an effort to find out. Chiu found an:

-8% drop in all jobs postings
-~30% drop in art, photography, writing jobs
-22% drop in journalism jobs
What’s really going on with AI and jobs?
Record-breaking layoff reports, Amazon's mass firings, and a slump in entry level employment. Is AI behind it all?

Lots of folks captioning aurora photos like "for a few minutes we didn't think about politics"

guess I'm built different, every time I'm out trying to see night sky stuff I frequently think about how much light pollution is entirely preventable with just a tiny bit of regulation

another colour study, in which I challenged myself to use a horizontal, no-opacity brush. It was hard not being able to use the colour picker, but I think I'm happy with it.

Applying mostly clear glow in the dark nail polish: this is easy. I am a genius

Applying coloured polish for the first time ever: I have never been so instantly and throughly humbled in my life

I am calling upon the people of Ireland to immediately begin construction of a thread on this site about how you or someone you know was roasted for a fashion choice. We need it.

All roasts must have come from Irish people *only*. Please respect this important rule, it makes a difference.
