11 March 1843: The ships recross the Antarctic Circle for the last time.

Around 9PM the ships observe "a remarkable ray of light"; it is noted in the logbook as the Aurora australis, but it appears again over subsequent nights and eventually proves to be the Great Comet of 1843.

Dan Simmons, who wrote about .75 very interesting books, one of which made for great TV once his revolting racism was excised from it, completely dead.

Here’s some sketches exploring one of my ideas for the creature from β€œThe Terror” by Dan Simmons, and how I imagined it could work as a supernatural element while still able to be mistaken for a polar bear at a glance or in the distance~

A 2 panel sketch disgram of a 1 meter tall pod. in the second panel, an oval section pops off and a demonic little face with short tentacles flies out, crudely drawn.

My favorite artifact in the "you don't need AI to do art" discourse is, of course, screenwriter Dan O'Bannon's sketch of the facehugger to explain it to Giger.

I need everyone to know that on the crochet subreddit the mods made a big post about how they're taking a week off because there was too much fighting/political posts. so there's currently no mods on r/crochet and people are being absolutely insane

I'm buying a kitchen and they sent a sample of the marble counter top with a metal ball showing what the sink will be like. Now my desk looks like a 90s 3D rendering tool demo image.

Gene Hackman's Harry Caul in The Conversation, playing saxophone on the far right of the frame in his apartment, which he has torn down, ripped up, and hollowed out. crud is all over the floor, the walls are bare, and there appears to be a giant hole in the wall on the far left that divides what once was maybe a living room from the doorway.

In the afternoon, the floe to which the ships are anchored strikes a grounded iceberg and breaks apart. Crozier and Sibbald, returning from Erebus across the floe, have to race across the disintegrating ice to Terror.
