Check your block lists! I hadn’t seen a post from @swiftonsecurity.com for months and it wasn’t until I saw a quote post that was blocked that I investigated. Turns out I had subscribed to some block list of “scrapers and bots” and they were on it - who knows who else was wrongfully blocked :[
Looks like a rejected logo design for paw patrol
Challenge blah blah. In the book, the media equation, experiments show that if you put something as minimal as googly eyes and a smiley face on a computer that people treat it as if it had feelings. Of course we’d imagine it was conscious of it showed text-auto completion on steroids.
A Ghost plant surrounded by other colorful succulents. There are several flower stems extending forward with dozens of tiny star shaped flowers. They're white with yellow centers.
I look forward to the tiny star-shaped flowers of this purple Ghost plant every year. Graptopetalum paraguayense. 🌱⭐️

A stray kale plant in a field of sour flower
Found a stray kale growing in an old, overgrown, neglected raised bed. But, I recall the kale I planted in that same bed last year refused to grow well when I tended to it.

It’s ok in my house
This is why they recommend you test out skin products on inconspicuous places
TIL that the earthquake scale we use was developed by Hiroo Kanamori and Thomas C Hanks, which replaced the Richter scale 60 years later. Kanamori is helping develop the earthquake early warning system we know as ShakeAlert

lol. I opened threads to see what it’s like at times like this and it’s just full of ridiculous stuff, conspiracies, “breaking” news with no reputable sourcing, and slop. It’s a fire hose of Facebook comments disconnected from their posts and in random order

Is he saying that the people the US thought were in the line of succession were all killed too? At first I thought he meant the US *wanted* certain people to lead but they accidentally killed them

Is it warrior-like to whine and moan on a public forum?
This is the scaled up version of my night guard cleaning pod thingy. lol
Yesss! Check out this upcoming sale, for a good cause! The Crimson Diamond will be donating a % of proceeds during the sale!
It’s always infrastructure week!
I guess, who is this Jonathan Lemire and why should I care about the opinion on current events from someone who just got out of cryogenic sleep?
I’m sure this was a fun framing but for the past 30 years that I’ve been politically aware this has been republican MO. The only difference is they don’t try to hide it anymore. Come on
If I had a land line I’d run a bbs. I would have had to pay about $70/month, on top of my fiber optic, to keep the land line
Crap ads at the end of some news site
I get news sites need to make money off ads but when I see this at the end of their articles I think it looks like shit and makes the site look like the tabloid section at the supermarket checkout
A little squirrel making a funny mouth because it wants another cranberry
This little goon just ate a cranberry and is asking me for another one.

Airplane light streak in night sky photography
Here's an airplane streak that I couldn't see with my eyes. Unprocessed.
ok shot of the night sky with jupiter in the center.
Got a free old celestron and tried to take a pic of jupiter with my DSLR and an adapter but no dice =( Tough to aim, wobbly, can't see through the screen. I'm probably doing something wrong & it was cold. So I ended up taking a standard night sky with a 24mm. #nightsky #photography 🔭

In this image a shot during landing of Nasa Perseverance from the perspective of the rover. The heat shield was already released and it's visible at the centre of the image. In the background the rim of the Jezero Crater and its delta. Colours assigned are from the dark of the more external atmosphere layers to the rusty red of the red planet surface.
5 years ago today! Can anyone send me to the next century, please?

A relatively close-up photo of the crescent Moon in a dark night sky. The bottom sliver of the Moon is illuminated, and the rest of the Moon's surface is faintly visible through the dark. Rising juuuust off the surface of the Moon on the right side is a bright dot - the planet Mercury!

As bright orange flower
Me turning over one of the plants leaves to show its white underside
Had a very nice back and forth on mastodon about what this lone flower in my front yard could be. A Gazania - the leaves on the clump are green on the upper side and white/silver underneath #gardening #flowers
