Have been having some fun lately with A.I generated images. This one was created by using text to create the image. What I told it was I wanted a unicorn standing on a mountain ledge. Pretty 👍 I reckon.#AI #photos #artificialintelligence

#Earth likely passed key 2C #globalwarming point on two #Nov2023 days so far
Friday and Saturday were first two days on record to have global average surface #temperature above 2°C when compared with preindustrial levels indicating just how quickly the planet is warming.
News of the record is in keeping with the record-shattering year so far on track to be the hottest on record globally in all surface weather datasets https://www.axios.com/2023/11/20/earth-2c-warming-threshold-passed-report #climatechange #climatecrisis

Still so, so behind on bills, pet food, etc. Rent is due in 2 weeks, and then both my cats go in for surgery a couple days later. So this goal amount probably isn't even enough but I don't know how much their surgery will be.

Spring has definitely sprung! New shoots are busting out on the roses and many other plants in my garden. Thisis why I love spring so much.

YES.

History is calling.

This little New Holland Honeyeater fleetingly landed in front of me, just long enough for me to quickly take this picture before it took off again. I was lucky this time because they are usually way too fast for me to get a good picture of.

One of the visitors that drops in to pay me a quick visit as he flies by. Hopefully as my garden continues to grow I will see many more feathered friends drop by.

#photo #photography #garden #gardening The transformation has started as beds are formed and new plants added. Watch this space to see how my garden grows.

#photo #car #transportation This is our 20 yr old car, Maisey who has sadly come close to the end of her time with us. She has engine problems that we can no longer afford to keep repaired and so we are reluctantly letting her go. She'll probably end up as scrap, for parts, but should we be lucky enough to find someone who could give her a new lease on life we'd be very happy. Not having a car now will mean a big change for us, especially as photographers, but we have faced many challenges during our life and this is just another one for us to meet.

#photos #photography #gardens #gardening #flora This is our backyard when we first arrived at this place. A lot has changed during the 3 months we have now been here, as I slowly transform this into a garden oasis.

@NanoBookReview Same problem here in Australia. The bane of my existence are the neighbourhood cats who go wherever they please and make themselves right at home in my garden... I love cats....in their own home. They will soon meet a close friend of mine...the hose if they keep wreaking havoc in my garden.

@GossiTheDog
Good reason not to use either of them, then, which I don't.

This is first on Mastodon! Please boost this thread. It’s an important one.

Good morning to readers. Kyiv remains in Ukrainian hands.

Some career news: I’m leaving NPR as part of the layoffs that dramatically reduced the company’s workforce.

I’ve decided to go back into Ukraine to keep reporting.

But this time, alone.

I give up.
I'm officially desperate.
If you need a security person you can get me at bargain basement cost because I'm gonna be super fucked here in a bit if I don't find SOMETHING.
I've been out of work 8 months.
I can't afford to keep going.

This is my resume
You tell me how I don't have a job yet

When it comes to the #ClimateCrisis, why hope?

Because: Math!

@billmckibben explains the numbers. https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-features/how-to-tackle-climate-change-math-bill-mckibben-1234691661/

For instance, a wind turbine produces electricity at about $39/megawatt-hour. That’s far less expensive than gas, coal, or nuclear.

And how about 6,000,000? That’s roughly the number of students worldwide who went on climate strike in 2019 (before the pandemic chased them indoors).

That hopey-changey thing keeps going if you know where to look.
