This is my Timber watercolour print You Didn't Think I Would. This is about Timber's tenacity to do what she needed to do, especially when those around her didn't think she had the guts to do it. It's time to do the right thing. It's time for her to show her true strength and blow their minds.

This photo made me understand class in America in a way that I was unable to process before seeing it. The rich enjoy class solidarity on a level that is unimaginable to most people.

The first three issues of World of IF science fiction since the revival by Starship Sloane Publishing. They look good in print!

Each issue has a story by me: "Our Place on the Map of the Universe", "From Deep Darkness came Murmurs of Awakening", and "A Three-Dimensional Chessboard Universe" 🪐📚💙

I've been beating the same drum the whole time:

— Style is a form of social language
— You should buy less, buy better, and save up for purchases
— Learn to spot quality
— Trousers often look better with a higher rise (written when slim fit, low rise pants were all the rage in 2011)

Painting in progress …

When I paint a landscape with lots of depth, I like to work back to front. This allows me to carefully adjust the colors as the get closer to the viewer.

Oh man, do you remember some years ago when scientists 3D-printed the larynx of a mummy in order to reproduce what he might of sounded like? This is one of the funniest things — after millennia, he sounds deeply disappointed.

*meh*
Listen to the Recreated Voice of a 3,000-Year-Old Egyptian Mummy
Media outlets have likened the sound to a "brief groan," a "long, exasperated 'meh' without the 'm,'" and "rather like 'eeuuughhh'"
