Former astronomer and science educator in AZ, now in Portland, OR working in industry - Mostly a hobby/politics/personal stuff account - Not really a NSFW account but I do interact with some so 🔞 - Sometimes I post furry stuff, or I rant - 24 queer he/him
Pinned
I could use a non-furry public facing account with my name and stuff for the little bit of science communication and chatting with researchers I do, I just prefer not to. I get anxious really easily communicating online so the little bit of privacy means I am much more open to post and have fun.

congratulations to the Seahawks, who are technically named after the gorgeous Osprey — a great victory for birders everywhere!
below is my rendition of an Osprey soaring to victory, drawn with full attention to detail. and no, this is not a photo!

One of my pet peeves is environmental / animal rights activists that clearly never think of anything from an ecological perspective. To maintain healthy ecosystems or repair ones damaged by human behavior, sometimes you are ethically mandated to kill things, even things you find cute.
Discovering to my dismay that apparently there's a movement of people crusading to...save the invasive mule deer destroying Santa Catalina Island because...deer are cute, I guess? Truly, vibes-only treehugger environmentalism will be the death of us all.

I'm convinced AI is our generation's radium - a discovery with genuinely useful applications in specific, controlled circumstances that we stupidly put in everything from kid's toys to toothpaste until we realised the harm far too late where future generations will ask if we were out of our minds.

I despise this *demonstrable* Nazi.
I'm almost as disappointed by, how even know, he's revered by so many people who should know better.

Remains kinda wild to me that there are still dry counties in 2026
"prohibition in the united states" has this time lapse map that switches from folksy banjo music to ominous industrial sci-fi for the 15 seconds when alcohol was illegal nationwide

Portland, OR mayor Keith Wilson responding to public demands that ICE's land use permit be rescinded after they gassed thousands of peaceful men women and children.
Kinda curious what "the course" we should stay is here, Keith? Watching ICE gas, abduct and sometimes shoot our neighbors?

My favorite artifact in the "you don't need AI to do art" discourse is, of course, screenwriter Dan O'Bannon's sketch of the facehugger to explain it to Giger.

I love seeing what people do with color shift or interference pigments, they're so much fun to work with! Plus, since the shift can't be easily scanned or shown in an image, it's sort of immune to some of the AI crap

And when SpaceX goes I hope they leave everything in such a state that takes years to clean up as a lesson to not trust douchebags with spaceflight. Maybe they can try a half assed launch of their "Starship" full of tech bros from Musk's personality cult and scatter their remains over the Gulf
I hope the last think Tesla does is release a software update that bricks every single one of their cars. You wanted the subscription model car, now enjoy lmao

I don't think the fursuit head counts as PPE lmao
By the way, if you’ve never seen what a broken phonograph mainspring looks like rapidly exiting a spring barrel, you’re in luck because I accidentally filmed it!
I just wanted a picture of me opening the demon core in fursuit as a bit. I did not intend to actually open the demon core.
