In #Okinawa, coastal fishermen now farm #coral, restoring #reefs like planting trees in a forest. With #ocean temperatures rising, half the world’s coral reefs have already vanished. These farmers are fighting back, one fragment at a time. [Heppoko Taylor]

Quite possibly the best thread I've ever scrolled through.

Explain your lore, but poorly: Held my breath once and decided I was a dolphin now. Turned anxiety into a personality trait. Built my own app so I could stress out efficiently. Wife unimpressed.

"Minecraft: Volume Alpha" the main theme from 'Minecraft' from Daniel Rosenfeld has been added to the Library of Congress National Recording Registry for its cultural impact. www.loc.gov/programs/nat...

I figured I should start posting, you know, create more than you consume, right? This is Azalea, an OC I drew forever ago. Bit of a self-insert. She freedives and fights sea monsters and stuff. I wish 😅 #oc #art #digitalart

I'll take a sunny dive in shallow water over a deep dive any day of the week. The Gardens of the Queen in Cuba is protected, so the fish are abundant! Prints: buff.ly/nu8W4Uw #underwaterPhotography #photography #scubaDiving #fish #sunshine #blue #ocean 🦑 📷

I doodled a random idea and this lil guy showed up. What should I name him? #digitalart #conceptart #characterdesign #oc #animeart

Empathy is the courage to step out of your own story and into someone else’s, not to change it, but to understand how it feels to walk in their world.

Resisting the urge to constantly switch #gamedev projects instead of finishing just one is the hardest thing sometimes. But it's about time I focus up with my main project 😎

Day 1 of learning Frenzel. Sadly I'm not one of the people who gets it instantly. But I'm going to keep at it with a discovery mindset and patience and trust that I'll get there when I get there 😊 #freediving #divesky

My favorite Pokémon of each type 💙

I just noticed ZZZ references the both buttons pressed meme and the MH BBQ spit in the HIA room #ZenlessZoneZero #MonsterHunter

My biggest flaw is the fear of judgement. I faced it the other day during yoga. Instead of packing up when my friend walked in, I kept going. He didn’t judge me, but even if he had, I realized I’d still do it anyway. Fear doesn’t control me—I’m learning to embrace discomfort and grow through it. 💪✨

The fastest growing app on the App Store is fully open source. You may have heard of it. But do you know how it works? I do now! Huge thanks to everyone who helped me make this one happen 🙏 youtu.be/cIoYUQhKJUo

lots of water #art #pokemon #pokefanart

Free advice: If an artwork isn’t working, walk away. Let it breathe. Art will tell you what it needs in time. Trust the process.

There's a beautiful crystal clear lake called Ellis Pond up in Maine between Andover and Roxbury that I visited earlier this year. I hope to return here in the summer to do some freediving 🫧 Would also be fun to swim over to French Island (which you can see in the center in the distance) 😊

Sleeping turtles can remain underwater for several hours. In cold water during winter, when they are almost hibernating, they can hold their breath for up to 7 hours. Just incredible animals. ❤️

This is Squiggle, a path of the storm monk slimefolk #oc I made for a #dnd campaign I played a few years ago 💙💜 #digitalart #anime

one thing I'd like to get better at is asking people questions. I have an intense fear of bothering people so it's very hard to do! But I love learning weird facts, or aspects of people's jobs you wouldn't think of, etc.

i take uncomfortability as a opportunity for growth. like yes, this may be out of my comfort zone but look at all i could become if i take this leap of faith and prove myself to be capable.

I just published a blog post outlining my reasons for logging dives and how to setup Subsurface, the best software I've found for digital logging. Feel free to drop any questions or comments here! https://blog.briangweber.com/2024-11-23-dive-log/ #scubaDiving #tutorial #blog #software #subsurface

This is interesting.

After seven years of experimentation, a team of researchers produced, through selective breeding, adult corals capable of resisting marine heat waves—a useful trait in an ever-warming world. Their work showed that corals can become better adapted to warming within a single generation.

I just heard someone say it was “cheesy” to say a video game saved you by helping you through a dark time. No, fuck you, Animal Crossing saved me twice by helping me through some dark times

What’s yours?

Been trying to learn handstands lately and holy fuck, How do you all do it? I know for a fact I gotta strengthen my arms abs and lower back and also get more confident and not be terrified of falling and killing myself 💀 I'm sure I'll get there, but it's so much more difficult than I thought lol
