I don't know, I just think art should be an earnest, heartfelt expression of emotion and lived experience, you know? A machine that cannot cringe cannot make art.

I think this painting might be finished, but I've been staring at it for too long! Oil on panel, 70 x 100cm.

Welcome back to #fossilfriday

Here is the crinoid Arthroacantha carpenteri with a Platycerid snail attached. These snails are Coprophagous which means they ate fecal matter. The snail would attached to the anal chimney of the crinoid and would feed on the waste.

I love the variety of copepod nauplii I see. One day, I’ll get around to IDing them!

I usually see these bizarre looking copepods from the order Monstrilloida in the height of summer, so I was surprised to see one in my sample this week, when the sea surface temperature was around 10.5 C.

Worrying results from back home. When are Labour going to understand that being reform-lite is not going to work for them? Especially in a place like Cleveland. People like my family are not going to swap back to labour because they see labour's current form as insincere.
This is quite the result for Labour.

They won this by just over 20 votes. The ward covers the Teesworks site.
South Bank (Redcar & Cleveland) Council By-Election Result:

🌹 LAB: 47.4% (-17.8)
➡️ RFM: 44.3% (New)
🌳 CON: 8.2% (-4.3)

No Ind (-22.2) as previous.

Labour HOLD.
Changes w/ 2023.

Biology chums. Do you know of any living organism that alters the redox chemistry of its surroundings in order to create a preferential environment and/or suppress competitors? #biology #microbiology #ecology

CW: pedophilia, sexual harassment

In light of the Epstein documents, we need to talk about just how common and pervasive pedophilia is.

We also need to talk about how most women (as far as I can tell) first become acquainted with their sexual identity through interactions with pedophiles.

Warp drives. Orbital habitats. Space elevators. The golden age of 20th century science fiction produced dreams with some things in common — they're extensively designed, in no sense real, and possibly strangling the future.

this kind of tiling is reminiscent of the element positioning on some of my billion year old microfossils. I wonder...
