I play games and study radiation with some streamy stuff in between. Occasionally post SE Alaska photos or food. Honestly very few skeets about my actual field, mostly shitposts and replies.

I adore the rain but it does make it more challenging to stay active. Beautiful views like this certainly help with the motivation though!

Grabbed this shot of the sunset a couple days ago...looked over from my desk and the whole living room was lit up in oranges and purples!

Trans rights are human rights
chat what do you think the odds are we can get a senator on bluesky to say trans rights
Hello (again) Bluesky! I’m going to start posting here again, because that other app has become a disaster.

But first, I want to introduce myself. My name is Tina Smith, and I’m a proud United States Senator for Minnesota… ⬇️

My earlier reskeet made me realize there's nothing here linking to the game jam stuff I've done. They're all listed on my itch page dnevill.itch.io and were done in collaboration with a various folks from @lydlbutton.bsky.social 's community. (None of my solo projects are ready to share...yet!)

I've had a blast with Godot and had 1,000 more success with it than I ever did with Unity, but both will involve writing some code. @insertdisc5.com has some great recs here for NO CODE game development. And I strongly encourage you to join a game jam. You don't need to be 'ready'! Learn as you go!
if you wanna make a game and don't know how to start, well do i have the post for you (SOFTWARE EDITION)

Y’ALL! Scientists at Schmidt Ocean just captured this rare video of an open-ocean squid caring for its young. That pearl-packed black bag between its tentacles is a brood pouch, each pearl is a developing baby squid (you can see a few hatch out at the end).

Nature is so cool. 🧵

Certainly not the earliest for me but one of the most memorable of those early gaming day wins for me because the ending of the game was such a let down and it was SUCH a tough game for young lil' Delvan. (Legendary Wings, NES)

LYDIA MADE A BOOK

Everyone is radioactive, as are most things you interact with daily.
What is common knowledge in your field, but shocks outsiders?

Fish fins can feel and sense things like pain, different substrate textures, and more!

Also, sharks are not mindless killing machines.

There is a new species of shark or shark relative (skate, ray, or chimera) discovered approximately every two weeks.

This'll be my last year voting in Wisconsin thankfully. The mail in ballot requires you coordinate an adult witness to watch you vote and then sign off once you've sealed it. Which is great when you've got social anxiety in a place where you don't really know anyone yet. 😅
