My nine year old thought these were excellent answers. I had to agree!

Because someone was curious: My take on a thematically appropriate gingerbread house this season (specifically the prompt was "A peppermint kaiju in a gingerbread city").

I love it in here. There's currently a hashtag named #thicktrunktuesday that is basically pics of massive, beautiful trees.
I humbly submit El Tule, an incredible ahuehuete from the state I was born, Oaxaca. It's over 2000 years old. "Tule" means "Tree of Enlightment" #Oaxaca #Mexico #ElTule It has the thickest trunk in the world.

You asked to see some Ghibli-ish photos, so here we go

They were taken around my hometown, near the city that inspired Howl's Moving Castle. I edited them with #Lightroom.

I can share some tips to achieve this "anime vibes". Just let me know if you're interested!

🇨🇵 Des fans de #Ghibli par ici ? J'ai édité ces photos pour ressembler à des frames d'anime. J'espère que ça fait à peu près illusion (au moins de loin ) !

So for those out there keeping score, those of us who said clearly from the very beginning that Elon Musk’s #BoringCompany, “Tunnels for Teslas” and #Hyperloop were all “dumb distractions” from the well-understood solutions that would actually improve cities and urban mobility, were right of course.

Close up of a Monarch wing.

I managed to get this photo just after a Monarch had freed itself from its chrysalises while its wings were still drying.

It was a shot with the 105mm 2.8 Sigma macro lens.

Repost of a photo while I was #bikepacking in Scotland this year when a Loch Ness duck drank some of my coffee out of my mug! I'd given them some Bombay mix which was quite spicy so I think he needed something to take the edge off. 🌶🦆🌶

I kinda love when non-bird people only use the male coloration of birds in their designs and unknowingly give us decorations featuring gay birds.

whenever people give me shit about my cat owning a busted old ipad carefully firewalled from the Internet, I show them this

Another example of #VimesBoots today.

LastWeekRyn bought potatoes and apples with all the good intentions of using them in meals. LastWeekRyn failed in that pursuit.

So today I made baked oatmeal and salt potatoes knowing that because we bought a chest freezer and a vacuum sealer, I have the means and space to store them for later use. The amount of money and time I will save because of this makes it worth it.

But the initial outlay is pretty big.

Well, I have banged on about this in the other place and now I will bang on about it here. Those following #UltraChallenge should be aware that these guys do not clean up properly after an event, leaving the area with the problem of their plastic pollution. Yet another way marker found today - 3 months after the event . #ActionChallenge #litter #plasticpollution #PlasticFreeNow #running #ultra #exmoor #exmoornationalpark

Re-posting this 🐤 thread from 2018 which, sadly, is still relevant:

#WomenInSTEM who talk about #harassment and sexual misconduct get a lot of antagonistic & unhelpful replies.
@shrewshrew and I (a woman & a man in science) tried to categorize them. #9ReplyGuys

#1: THE LIFE COACH

Another sign Musk is making a Twitter an increasingly unpleasant and less useful forum for scientists: the COVID misinformation policy is gone.

I've been conflicted about Twitter given its important role in sci comm vs the trolling, misinfo, etc. But increasingly hard not to hope the whale fails for good.
