@jaredwhite tangentially related but the sparkle used to be my favorite emoji - for years! - and these greedy AI overlords have totally ruined it for me now (since it’s come to be associated with AI features). I now shudder whenever I see it on a website
@pfefferle I have a Phoniebox built for my now-deceased grandmother that I could salvage maybe. Thought we'd need to wait for my daughter to be more careful with tech like that first. But a detached NFC reader would solve that
@cwebber OKAY SO last month on the video game history foundation discord people were discussing the oldest known sonic OCs and this one came up, which is fan art printed in the UK Sonic the Comic, Issue 25, cover date 30 April 1994. It's described as Tails' girlfriend, but I can't help seeing this as just Tails who has come out as transfemme/femboy. Which I actually love for him/her/them 😆
Oooooh, finalmente vedo anch'io uno straccio di aurora boreale!L'alone verde si vedicchia a occhio nudo, quello rossiccio no.#aurora #auroraborealis #polarlicht
Went out up to Sky Prarie park and took a couple pictures of the #aurora. I’d have to drive pretty far to get away from all the light pollution, but the park was still better than my street where everyone seems to feel the need to put in super bright daylight spectrum LEDs in their porch lights. If I put up my arms to block the lights from houses surrounding the park I could just ever so faintly see some of it. Taking photos though…#Spokane
InterruptedEverywhere we stayed in #Iceland, we found a safe parking place where we could hunt the #aurora. We'd been lucky the night before so we headed back to the same spot.Nada. Zilch. Lots of pretty stars.We drove back to the hotel and, on the way, the aurora began. We returned to the hotel (it was closest) as quickly as we could and I immediately unloaded my camera.Which is how I came to be in a brightly lit back yard.@photography#AuroraTuesday #NorthernLights #AuroraBorealis
