A noir-toned background image of a rainy city skyscape, birds flying with a backdrop of smeared neon lights, with a detective standing on a rooftop in long coat and hat with one arm raised. Right-justified text on the image reads "open call for novellas, opens: 4.01.26, closes: 4.30.26." The Ruadán Books logo is centered above the text.

For real: Clarkesworld consistently has *excellent* science fiction.

Younger daughter told me that her college physics professor had a slide up at the start of class that said; “If you’re interested in science fiction, read Clarkesworld!” @clarkesworldmagazine.com

I am an Old and would therefore like everyone to appreciate the meme I just made for my @asianstudies.org presentation this Sunday. It's extremely niche, but I understand that's the nature of these things

I think this counts as "you know you're an academic when..."

This 4-post thread is excellent. "Maybe you see ChatGPT as a harmless dodge...but whom does it serve for you to outsource your intellectual work to something that doesn't THINK at all...We should remember that not every convenience of compromise makes the world better"

A gray sky - patches of light and dark gray mostly smooth with some nubbly texturey parts.

Yours is letting us know exactly how it feels...

A small russet bird with a grey blue head in a thicket. There is a hazy blue sky behind it.

So today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #TwigsAreUs.

I quite like this framing of a distant chaffinch in some trees at the top of the Mühleggbahn funicular in St Gallen.

Various shades of gray. Like the USS Enterprise is caught in a nebulous pocket dimension.

Me: Sky is back on its bullshit, all hazy shades of March.
Sky: HEY. This is me being SOFT and COMFORTING. #SkyPortrait

In English, "bearded bell bird"--look at that beard!

Cotton fluff clouds and blue sky.

A #SkyPortrait for 11 March

a redrawn version of tomokazu komiya's illustration for light slowbro from the neo destiny pokémon TCG expansion. slowbro is sitting in a green meadow filled with colorful flowers under a blue sky, with a windmill in the background. slowbro is smelling a blue flower held in its hand, bearing a blissful expression shared by the shellder on its tail. the illustration is mostly lineless and rendered in comic-style halftones.

slowbro for @ poketcg-art on tumblr’s redraw event 💗🌼

For once the blue is the correct shade. Blue sky with white contrail coming from a passing plane.
