Mastodon existed before droves of people flocked here seeking solace or new territory. In a sense, we’re colonizing it and if we don’t bring an attitude of #humility, #kindness, and #love, we will set this place on fire too.

There’s plenty of darkness on display in the world. I want to do my part not to perpetuate it. (2/2)

The 3,270-year-old Hove amber cup, found in 1856 in Hove, England. It's made of a single piece of amber from northern Europe, suggesting trade links between England and the Baltic even that long ago.

I'm just over here making friends with dragons, and protecting them too. Big Dragon.

I painted this a couple years ago with Procreate and Photoshop based off an ink drawing I did for #inktober prompt word BIG.

There should be a word for when you reach for your cup of tea but then realise you drank it all already.

Do you keep hearing about machine learning taking over the world "soon anytime now"?

This #deviantart entry of mine from 2009 has been labelled, presumably automatically, as "mature content". I kind of see why–not quite an adversarial attack, but yes quite the failure of excessive generalization.

It's a most innocent photograph: that of my favourite lunch, back from when I was at INI Zurich: mozzarella with cherry tomatoes, olive oil, salt, and ... bread.

It vindicates everything I have said on Twitter for the last 6 years. Brexit will never be a success nor replace UK EU membership with something better. Suspect this Remain lead will increase over time.
RT @ElectionMapsUK: In hindsight, do you think Britain was right or wrong to vote to leave the European Union?

Right to Leave: 32% (-3)
Wrong to Leave: 56% (+4)

When Nigel Farage went after the RNLI, donations to the lifeboat service rocketed.
This Tory government is about to find out that Brits feel just as strongly about our NHS.

Hello everyone! I joined a few days ago. I'm a glaciologist and senior researcher at #GEUS, The Geological Survey of Denmark and #Greenland
I mostly tweet about #Arctic #Antarctica #climate #climatechange #Polar science, but also #Mars science, #equity #openaccess and #fieldwork

"Do you love Me?" Alice asked.

"No, I don't love you!" replied the White Rabbit.

Alice frowned and clasped her hands together as she did whenever she felt hurt.

"See?" replied the White Rabbit. "Now you're going to start asking yourself what makes you so imperfect and what did you do wrong so that I can't love you at least a little.

You know, that's why I can't love you. You will not always be loved Alice, there will be days when others will be tired and bored with life, will have their heads in the clouds, and will hurt you.

Because people are like that, they somehow always end up hurting each other's feelings, whether through carelessness, misunderstanding, or conflicts with themselves.

If you don't love yourself, at least a little, if you don't create an armor of self-love and happiness around your heart, the feeble annoyances caused by others will become lethal and will destroy you.

The first time I saw you I made a pact with myself: 'I will avoid loving you until you learn to love yourself.' "

~Lewis Carroll, Alice in Wonderland

A female otter and one of her cubs, leaving the loch as the sun sank down, its last rays lighting up their long whiskers.

It's not often such light is available on Mull, and even rarer when there is something to photograph within it.

@bluehazy I don't mind at all! I have a Canon 7D mk 2 and an L series 100-400mm. I do use light room but just basics 😊

I hate when I accidentally leave the window open at night, and a flurry of stars funnels inside and I swallow them while I sleep. Then I'm filled with cosmic visions. And the stardust makes me cough. It's annoying.

Coming soon...

One day, in the far future, there will be a Russian successor identity that is not based on domination and repression. Until then: isolate, isolate, isolate. And send Ukraine all the weapons
