For #FollowFriday I want to share these beautiful drawings that @joelpedersenarts did of Button! Joel makes wonderful art and is a wonderful person. Highly recommend following and checking out what he has to offer!

This book has been out of print for decades and is truly a lesson for anyone joining any organization... or anyone who's worked on any "legacy" process" (image descriptions populated)

On #mastodon, do you try to read everything on your feed (completionist) or do you just check in on it and take in whatever’s at the top (sampler)?

Corollary question: is your habit the same or different than it was on #Twitter (if applicable)?

#Boosts welcome, I think it would be cool to get a wider sample of answers. #poll

At some point I'll move on from Megaloceros giganteus, but, clearly, not today. The thing is, I'm still not happy with the fur and antlers, so I keep tweaking, and so I keep getting *ideas*.
Not my fault ginormous deer are awesome.

Two hours of take-offs and landings at San Francisco Airport, 8 to 10pm on a Friday night.

It was bitter cold. And this was perhaps the longest time ever I spent taking pictures in one spot, talking to myself and cursing throughout most of the evening.

FYI, this is a merge of 20-25 photos, each about 60 seconds long. Towards the end of the shoot, the fog started rolling in.

not really into new year's resolutions but this autumn i learned to knit and it amazed me how quickly the idea of buying commercial knit goods became unthinkable. next year i want to see how many other crafts i can make that happen for

Fission is in the news, but few recognize that a woman physicist was behind the discovery.

Lise Meitner’s brilliance led to the discovery of nuclear fission. But her long time collaborator Otto Hahn, was awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry w/o her in 1944, even though she had given the first theoretical explanation.

Albert Einstein called Meitner “our Marie Curie." She also adamantly refused to work on the atomic bomb during WWII. https://www.aps.org/publications/apsnews/201502/physicshistory.cfm #women #history #science #energy

I gave a glib answer when my daughter asked what I wanted for #Christmas . I now have world peas.

Hey there. I am a PhD student exploring how galaxies are connected with the large-scale structure of the universe and what that reveals about dark energy. I enjoy figuring out how to condense information- whether it be for galaxy statics, outreach, or decorating science bakes

My gingerbread creations from the past two years. Any ideas for what I should try this year?

#ArtAdventCalendar - Day 17. I have two very different styles of painting and one of them is in circles. I use different sizes and shades of colour to give an illusion of shape and depth. I also use negative space as part of the shape definition. This artwork of a ringed gas giant is painted in acrylics on stretched canvas. #sciart #planets #painter #artist #astronomy

For this year's gingerbread I made... Curiosity!
