My two favorite photos I took at Formula Drift Long Beach, shot on Fuji 200 using a 70-210mm f4.5 lens. Looking forward to Round 8 returning to SoCal in October.

Shot some B&W film heavily ft. my boys back in January and finally received the digital copies. Here's my two favorites: Pharaoh appearing to make a decree and Jiji longing at the wide open world below him

Met a girl from 4chan who flirtatiously asks to take my 'measurements.' I giggle and assent. She whips out a pair of calipers.

This was my only opportunity to take these on my home the other day once I noticed it, just an incredible sunset to have in my rear view on the way home.

Knowing this much biology certainly isn't a prerequisite for being a federal judge. But damn, it's nice when they do. Judge Reyes really seems to have done her homework. 💪
Lots to piece out from day 1 of the hearing on Trump's executive order concerning trans people in the military, but this back-and-forth between Judge Ana Reyes and government lawyer Jason Lynch about intersex people and biology is interesting!

This is some Soviet bullshit.
Exclusive: NSF this week began to search through billions of dollars of grants the agency has already awarded for anything touching on topics that President Donald Trump has criticized. And NSF has blocked grantees and trainees from accessing funds while the review is underway. scim.ag/3El0NZh

I graduated high school in 2012. When we were learning about it, we were taught that Nazis were the worst villains in modern history, and that we should make sure to never let that happen again. Now we’re overreacting when we point out the same Nazi tactics/symbols being used today

This turns out to have not been a particularly tricky prediction.
I for one am excited for TikTok to show me a splashy "The US GOVERNMENT HAS DESTROYED EVERYTHING YOU LOVE" screen when I open the app next week followed by Donald Trump crawling through glass to get it back because it helped get him elected thus solidifying him as a HERO OF THE EVERYDAY AMERICAN.

I'm an amateur artist and I try to draw more and not give up on artblocks. This post contains my most successful art, but I also love to take screenshots in video games and show my OCs.

7 years ago, I posted about the Torrent Ducks which inspired @jencross.bsky.social to visit for the first time.

These badass ducks literally live in fast moving rivers and swim UPSTREAM! Here's a momma (orange) and a papa (white) duck teaching their ducklings how to swim.

The Hihi or Stitchbird is the only member of an entire bird family. It's a threatened species and now only found in a few sanctuaries in New Zealand.

The male can erect its white eyebrows, as this male is doing in response to another male nearby.

My body is at that stage where when I sneeze, more and more often a fart that I didn’t know was even loaded will be pushed out. It makes me live in fear of the day I sneeze and shit myself.
