Comics folk: what’s the issue of Power Man (maybe Claremont?) where Luke falls an enormous height from an aircraft into water? Read it in a UK annual, would like to own the original.

Good morning Bluesky.

Say hello to our resident Orca, in front of the Seattle waterfront during a gorgeous PNW sunset. He was traveling with his family and T034s, T037/T037Bs. Those little ones in the pods are always the most playful ones. We love our whales. This photo should be a poster!

An upturned tree with roots and mud showing. On top are some grasses and bluebells growing. It looks a bit like an old woman with arms and a stick and head made of grass and flowers.

The High Council reluctantly compensates you with a silk helm that used to belong to a minotaur. When you wear it you hallucinate.

An LLM is never going to have a word on the tip of its tongue while it searches for exactly the right meaning it wishes to express, despite the fact it says "thinking..." on the screen while it's doing the cutting and pasting.

The photo shows a wooden model of a cow giving birth accompanied by two men. One man calms the cow while the other ensures a proper delivery.The calf emerges from his mother, licking the hand of the man.

Models of everyday life were deposited in #Egyptian tombs. They were supposed to support the deceased in the afterlife. One of the most charming examples is the model of a #cow giving birth.
Carved in wood, painted.
Probably from Meir, #Egypt, dating c. 2040-1985 BC.

Inconvenience? I just had to dig seven pages deep to find the unsubscribe for one of the four TV subscriptions I need, I'm measured & optimized against in my supermarket, lamps, music, games, and travel. Every service I love gets enshittified to buy billionaires yachts worth 100 times my house.

This is Achrioptera manga, a giant phasmid or stick insect native to Madagascar.

The specific epithet, "manga" means blue in Malagasy & it's not hard to see why. Only males are blue.

The tiny back wings ("alae") are an example of brachyptery: they're useless for flight, but have other functions.
