Today's @poetrydaily.bsky.social poem by Lena Tsykynovska just got me with its odd specificity but also the power of the absurd in absurd times:
not even a time like that
could make art about forests or love seem ridiculous —
at least not for the people we knew

For Maths fans, 2025 is a square.
45² = 45 x 45 = 2025
Also,
9² x 5² = 2025
40² + 20² + 5² = 2025
My favourite?
1³+2³+3³+4³+5³+6³+7³+8³+9³ = 2025

This was such a perfectly calm, still and peaceful autumn evening with gorgeous green airglow on display.
Airglow is caused by sunlight exciting atoms and molecules in the upper atmosphere, which then emit light to shed their excess energy.

I denied permissions to Instagram swmi-inadvertently ever-ago. Bsky says I did the same here, but I didn't. Is BSky affiliated with Instagram? How would I go about reversing this BSky-notion I denied them access

Hubble x #Arcane 🔭
Introducing the Jinx Palette!
Arcane is an amazing show and I wanted to pay tribute to it my own way! This is not an usual way to process Hubble data, but it's kind of cool if you ask me.
This is NGC-6302, a planetary nebula ~3,500 light-years from us.
