Sci-fi written by cishet authors can be so jarring. Like you’re telling me you dreamt up a whole universe of aliens, but every species has separate bathrooms for men and women? The sentient ooze is a lady ooze? The spacefaring tentacle monarch is in a heterosexual marriage? Okay Matt.

A vote for graphite is a vote for one of the cheapest, oldest, most basic art mediums we have, and I think that’s beautiful.

Graphite all the way!
My fav occurrence of graphite is when you get big flakes of it in marble. The remnants of former life, transformed back to its elemental form. It's a beautiful example of how geology is the ultimate recycler.

FUN FACT! A ton (if not most!) Indigenous languages don't have a word for "wilderness" because that's such a colonial concept
There's only words for "home" and "the land (a living being)". Land is always doing what it's meant to, unless something like us is preventing it

Self, self, we need to discuss the book acquisition thing. NO MORE BOOKS (for now). My tbr for non-fiction is already 10 ft tall (at a guess)…just because you’re finding all kind of interesting stuff doesn’t mean you need to buy the book. LIBRARIES EXIST FOR A REASON *ahem*

And a salt cathedral carved around 2000 in a salt mine in Italy. The Realmonte salt cathedral was dedicated to the patron saint of miners and feature and is apparently a small part of a still operating halite salt mine.

The Amazon leaf fish is so well camouflaged that it can drift among fallen leaves unnoticed, until it's time to strike.

-Suitable & beautiful carving material
-Forms around subduction zones & mid-ocean ridges which are both very interesting
-Forms from serpentine which is also very cool

An unexpected crossover for cat lovers and #MinCup2026 fans
100 million years ago a chunk of ocean basin uplifted to form the island of Cyprus. Within this formation were copper deposits made by ancient hydrothermal vents. As they mined these vents, the people domesticated a small feral predator to control rodents.
The first record of domestic cats.
