Man. The craziness continues. I just wanted to stargaze 😨

A dark forest ridge skyline where just beyond it is the orange glow of a forest fire. There's a plume of smoke and the light from the fire is reflected in a lake in the foreground

Something crazy happening on the other side of this ridge

A beautiful view of a mountain lake and forest with a huge cloud of smoke billowing up from behind a distant ridge

Baby bunny: /appears Me: FUCK OFF!!! How can you possibly be that small!?

A photo of a back yard with a tall bush against the house wall at its far end. Under the bush is the smallest roundest brown baby bunny on the planet. It's probably the size of an apple with tiny ears that are so small they're almost round

When you set off a firework in my neighborhood, this is who you're scaring

Niece cat is fed-up with our long-winded Lord of the Rings discussions

At least I can watch bees. I love bees. Bees will never betray me.

Sharing my own teeny tiny piece of Jack Hills zircon! I love extremely old rocks and have a small collection of some other examples ❤️

Look at this weirdass card. You can hardly see Mirai on it 🤣 #cardsky

When FUNi put together that postcard rally that was going to be given to the staff, I frantically had this postcard made up with our wedding picture because I wanted to show them the sorts of people they reached. I practiced writing as small as possible so I could fit as much love on as I could

The photo shows two postcards, one of which shows the front of the card and the other shows the back. The front photo shows two women in wedding dresses, one in white with light hair and one in black with dark hair. They are seated on the ground in front of a Shinto alter. On the back of the card is endless teeny text written in gold pen.

Climate Pledge can suck shit

A screenshot of an email that reads: "Thank you for emailing Climate Pledge Arena. We understand the impact policy compliance had on many entering last night’s performance. However, with doors opening earlier than advertised and the show starting later than advertised to accommodate for longer lines, we will not be providing compensation."

I scored this gorgeous piece of fire agate for $10 at the mineral market today, and I think it was because it's like 95% polished (the surface is still a little cloudy). I'm certain I can finish the polish myself so this is a screaming deal!

Come on, why would you put that in a REVIEW after such a garbage situation happened?

A pulled paragraph from the linked article that reads "I'm not going to lie, I might be starting to see why so many people took issue with this writer's humor if these are the types of jokes that are making it into the final show after they explicitly said that certain things would be toned down after receiving feedback from others."

I've wanted a piece of alexandrite ever since it was prominently featured in The Case Files of Jeweler Richard, and now, thanks to @peculiarityshop.bsky.social, I finally have some! These are photos are of the exact same ring ❤️

A photo featuring a large ring on a hand. The band is wide and made of sterling silver filigree. The center stone has diamond-shaped facets and is very clear and light green.

The same ring under different lighting. As a result, the stone is now a light reddish-purple color. This is due to a unique property of the gem.

Lemme share my favorite ruby specimen! This is ruby in nuummite from Greenland! The guy who sold it to me told me the guy that sold it to him had to fight a polar bear to stake the claim this ruby came from 😂

#Twst Lilia... what the fuck

A screencap of Lilia Vanrouge from Twisted-Wonderland on the homescreen of the game. He's wearing a brown-striped shirt and visor that resemble a diner server uniform. His quote bubble says "Using magic to elevate the appearance of food, hm? That idea would boggle the minds of people who lived in more war-torn eras." Lilia is like 700 years old and used to be a war general...

⛸️ UM...

A screencap of an article headline that reads "Sakamoto leads world championships." The accompanying photo is of a figure skater that is extremely white, identifies as a man, and is named Ilia Malinin. He is not Sakamoto and is not currently leading as he has not skated yet.

Got some very nice ⛸️ treats in the mail today!

A photo with 3 pieces of art and 5 smaller trading card stickers. The art pieces feature stylized pen drawings of figure skaters (from left to right) Alysa Liu, Amber Glenn, and Isabeau Levito. The trading card stickers feature Italian figure skaters (from left to right) Lara Naki Gutmann, Gabriele Frangipani, Matteo Rizzo, Anna Pezzetta, and Nikolaj Memola

A portion of the same previous photo but very much zoomed in on Alysa Liu, who's sitting in the lower front row wearing big sunglasses and red and white striped stockings. She almost doesn't stand out
