The deadly mermaid is here! She is a little bored today, no one new to meet and greet in the sea and invite down to the depths with her💀
An illustration of a mermaid laying on her side with her back to us. She has pale hair and a red tail with dark pink skin. Her fins are translucent and can be seen to be so as they curl around her back. Around her are bones and skulls of humans. She rests her arm on a skull. The background is a plain light peachy pink

my latest investigation for @consumerreports.org is based on months of reporting and 60+ lab tests of leading protein supplements

we found that most protein powders and shakes have more lead in one serving than our experts say is safe to have in a day (🧵)

I really liked LinkedIn Learning’s courses on HTML, CSS, and Javascript! It’s available through most libraries if you have a card. But if you find the specific tutorial you’re thinking of I’d love to check it out! I’m definitely going to check out the other ones listed here :-)

The Hippocampus is a mythical creature with the front of a horse and the back half of a fish. They've been portrayed by cultures from the Ancient Greeks to the Picts and beyond

My take here is partly based on a black-figure amphora from the 6th century BCE that currently is displayed in the Louvre

I would love to do that, I miss being in class. I’m fortunate enough to have a sister with a PhD in math & a passion for teaching, so hopefully she’ll be able to help me with it since I’ve forgotten everything beyond long division & simple algebra. I’ve been on a great sci-fi kick lately that’s made

Hi! I'm Adrian Sandoval, a game designer currently working on Little Nemo & the Nightmare Fiends, a 2D action-adventure game based on the Little Nemo comic strip from the early 1900s. Consider wishlisting on Steam, please and thank you! store.steampowered.com/app/2229030/...
