A metal panel of elevator buttons. The lowest one says EARTH. Then they go up by increments (numbered 75, 95, 115, 135, 155, 175, 195, 215, 235) and the last one just says SPACE
And they said space elevators would never work.

A portrait of Gordon Cooper, the astronaut, who hand landed, a Mercury capsule, using Astronomy, and math, while steering.
A real space cowboy. His book, Leap Of Faith, is quite a read.
Gordon Cooper's Manual Reentry Saved Faith 7 Mission
On May 16, 1963, during NASA's final Mercury mission, a short circuit knocked out Gordon Cooper's automatic controls just before reentry. He calmly drew horizon lines on his window, memorized constellations, and used a countdown from John Glenn to time the retrorockets perfectly. Faith 7 splashed down only four miles from the recovery ship—NASA's most precise Mercury landing. The story from Cooper's memoir highlights human skill outshining failed tech, earning praise as a lesson in grit.

A person sits under a tree on a bright sunny day, working at a laptop. The person is sitting on a lush green hill. Above, the sunlight blazes through the leaves, producing a white-yellow glow. In the distance, a purple mountain range sits under a blue sky. This is an interpretation of Apple Computer's first logo, featuring Isaac Newton. The painting is signed "Chris Silverman" in rainbow lettering.

A photo of a bumper sticker on the back of a pickup truck. The photo is cropped to only show a little striping of the truck, with two white stripes at the top, one thick, one thin; there is some scratch marks over these. Below it is black, where the sticker, itself black with white text is located.
The text reads:
"Trans people existing
does nothing negative
to your life
you crybaby bitch"
The text reads:

Is this not the Law and Order font? It ends with a Dun-dun sound when I read this in my head.

Looking down past the viewer’s legs and feet to see the gray steps of two impossibly narrow staircases converging to one impossibly narrow staircase
I just lost my retirement fund betting on "Amsterdam."
Oh my heck, and slippery socks to boot!
@ba Oh man, there are some cool & crazy staircases in Amsterdam

Remind me of the stairs in my grandparents' house. Not as dysfunctional as these, but they were steep and very narrow.
ah, the one that breaks all your ankles

A black and white dog laying on a deck.
Picked her up on Sunday. She's settling in nicely. She's an 11-month old Australian cattle dog/poodle mix, very energetic, but also very eager to please. Uly seems to like being a big brother.

Yesss! I know a Scottie that would love a playdate with the pair of ‘em.
Super cute!
We just adopted an Aussie Shepherd / poodle mix from Texas. He's a sleeve biter, but we love him.

The band Moin (two guitarists, a drummer, and a guy playing electronics) performing onstage bathed in red light.
Closing out the birthday weekend (observed) with a rare (for me) Monday night show at Holocene featuring Moin, who I would describe as combining the jazz precision of Tortoise with the vibes mastery of Burial.

this is an awesome photo! and belated happy birthday! perfect way to ring in another go-round
@nikkuneko Thank you! Holocene is one my favorite venues here in Portland - great booking, great sound, great vibes. The lighting is often pretty challenging for such an extremely amateur snapshotter!

Mclusky guitarist and singer Andrew Falkous performs in the foreground. Mclusky’s drummer appears in the background partially obscured behind a plexiglass barrier.
Celebrated my birthday (observed) with some great rock shows. Wild that Mclusky are still at it - I described them to a friend as a "turn of the century" Welsh punk band and the new material holds up!

oh MAN it's been so long since i thought about mclusky that my last frame of reference was a friend having "to hell with good intentions" autoplaying on his XANGA! so glad they're still at it!
@nikkuneko the new stuff’s pretty good!
We have tickets for Friday, psyched
@wjcstp especially performed live, Alan is a Cowboy Killer might be the best song of all time. Pinnacle of human achievement.
TICKETS FOR A WEEK FROM FRIDAY, LET'S GET IT

Public Service Broadcasting - Go! (Live on KEXP)

Screenshot showing conversation between actors Jennifer Coolidge and Jeremy Allen White
At the top above the frames showing the actors talking it reads:
"not to be dramatic but these two look like
the human versions of kermit the frog and
miss piggy"
Then there are frames below with the actors talking:
You’re such a brilliant actor.
Thank you so much:
And incredibly attractive human being.
Right back atchu. Truly

the PEW PEW and WOOF interjections really are the cherry on top
Saw this last night and was thinking about posting it.
Never really got along with "Bob's Burgers" but every so often one of their covers videos really connects. This one somehow manages to be silly but absolutely captures the feel of doing your favorite song for yourself.

never watched the show. his voice is perfectly curtisesque.
I am the opposite of @ardgedee. I've always really liked the show itself. I've always enjoyed the high-functioning family dysfunction and I think Bob is a great father figure. However, the songs are usually a hard pass for me. I am not a show tunes and musical fan. I actively dislike most musicals that aren't comedies or a cartoon, probably especially that really really good one you think I need to watch to change my mind.
I don't know what original song this is a cover of, so I have no idea what this is supposed to be or what it means from the context of the song choice. The joke at the end was really funny, though. It really fits that Bob would spend his precious few moments of free time time to not only sing a song just to be supportive of his son's creativity, but to full-send his performance because he always gives his best to his family.

also a big bob's burgers fan (though i haven't kept up in the last couple years). wildly i'm about halfway between urlnotfound and ardgedee in that i love both the functional dysfunction and the music.
it's nice to see a family that isn't magically making it, and i love seeing weirdo kids actually as maladjusted as i was. real family love and acceptance, but not in a saccharine way. it's so friggin wholesome.
and i normally am not a fan of musicals or musical parody, but there's something so perfectly sweet and genuine about the songs. i mean, i walk around singing "electric love" to myself all the damn time.
and oh, to answer your uncertainty, @urlnotfound, this is a cover of the 1978 joy division single "transmission" - notoriously brooding, dark postpunk band, lead singer died very young.

whoops, 1979, not 1978. my bad
Bobs Burgers is a great show, and while I hate musicals, I love the stupid songs. I kind of inherited my love for both from Home Movies, which is also great.
@travis YES i loved “home movies” SO MUCH

Vital lesson on how Google is the digital chokepoint. Diversify away from path dependence immediately.
You ̶g̶o̶ ̶b̶l̶i̶n̶d̶ ̶ mess up your sister's post-graduate degree doing that!
What was the endgame vis-a-vis Google Gemini, and does it let adults do that? Asking for a friend.
Looks like I have to sit my 14 year old down and have, "the talk". You know that talk your parents gave you when your body started changing and how sex with computers could effect whether or not you would have enough money for food in 3 months.
01.04.26
This a serious issue popping up on Google Photos subreddit. People enable Gemni on their account and then it finds some baby-in-the-bath photo and totally locks them out.
I probably have a few of those pics in my account - I've started to do a Google Takeout every 6 months of ALL my Google Data (2TB !!!!!) just in case I ever get locked out. Losing access to my primary gmail would be a massive pain in the ass regardless.

A novel way to recreate lost-dissertation-on-Zip-drive disasters of the late 90s
I started the exodus of my data away from storage with them when trump won and Sundar Pichai was up on stage glad-handing him. Fuck them. After watching twitter buckle the way it did, time to move on.
@3rdparty one more reason I'm glad I've NEVER stored my data online. It's just somebody else's computer and you have no control over what it might do.

Coming soon! edit: in May
For those who partake in postcrossing this is very cool to see. Four triangular stamps designed by Antonio Alcalá and illustrated by Jackson Gibbs.
I am now hoping my next US postcards have one of these stuck on em. So cool.
Note: The real stamps won't have the word crossed out.

Well, I'm gonna have to get some of these.
WOW. Neat.

TIL and I'm a window clerk!
@Lockjaw I think Postcrossing made an early announement to the postcrossing community, so not sure if officially announced at the same time... maybe

View over shoulder of a child reading Donald Duck comics in a classroom at the head of which stands a nun in a black and white wimple reading from a textbook, a beatific yellow glow around her. Caption says, “CAN 6,000 NUNS BE WRONG?”

Once you’ve answered that, imagine that one nun who was 100% right about comix.
