#Speaking #Visibility
A cozy pub scene featuring two drinks side by side on a polished wooden counter. On the left, a half pint of clear, golden cider glows warmly under soft indoor lighting. On the right, a perfectly poured pint of Guinness sits proudly in its branded glass, showcasing its deep mahogany body and iconic creamy white head. Both drinks rest neatly on black coasters against a backdrop of a wooden wall with a power outlet, and a window revealing blurred city lights reflecting the calm evening atmosphere.
No #RestBash for @tamarajosten.bsky.social & I after #MotaCon #TestBash. We spend two days in London and enjoyed it a lot.
A little bit of sightseeing tomorrow and then heading home.
Last evening today in a typical pub. 🍻🍎

I did a 99 second talk. It wasn't very good and I was a new level of nervous I haven't achieved before but I did it. Sorry to all who had to listen/ witness 💜 #TestBash #99secondtalk

A starry purple night where LOVABILITY beams above a bug holding a giant pink heart pierced by an arrow, surrounded by floating hearts like love is in the air.
A beach scene under the stars at the Bug Bash! Bugs in fun costumes, from a vampire cape to a space helmet, hang out near a giant umbrella with a starfish buddy on the sand.
TESTBASH flashes with confetti in space! A bug flies a UFO while SpaceDuck glides nearby in a spacesuit. It’s a cosmic party in full orbit.
A confident bug wearing a coach cap and blowing a whistle stands under QUALITY COACHING, addressing a squad of bug cadets lined up at attention.
