Hang in there #cats

Sad girl dinner consisting of half a pop tart and a scoop of nutella

They delighted & amused as the canary sang their song till death, not knowing they were next

Reminder:

It’s officially February and the Cascades barely have a dusting of snow, hopefully some winter weather to come later this week

Trying to stay posting but feeling defeated as I’m getting red taped trying to schedule my dr approved sterilization procedure. They’re refusing to tell me when&why it’s not getting sent to the surgery office bcuz “they don’t want to create false expectations” #womenshealth #reproductiverights

Public libraries are cool and badass

🔭 @esa.int's Milky Way-mapper #Gaia has completed the sky-scanning phase of its mission. Over the last decade, it has made over three trillion observations of about two billion stars and other objects, revolutionising the view of our home galaxy and cosmic neighbourhood. www.esa.int/Science_Expl...

He sent me a message at 11:11 saying I’m pretty that’s gotta mean something

The surface of Saturn’s icy moon Dione at approximately 13 meters per pixel. Visible are craters and fault scarps of the moon’s “Wispy Terrain.” At this scale, the viewable area would fit the city of Boston, Massachusetts. flic.kr/p/2qFp8i1

I'm Amy. I paint ceramics with pottery glaze to bring a little of the universe into your daily life. And to reflect on life at a cosmic distance. Feel free to join the mailing list for restock updates: amyraehill.com #PortfolioDay

JOURNALIST: I've noticed you exude a kind of joy when you're talking about ultimate cosmic destruction via vacuum decay... why is that? ME: I just think it's neat :)

this is the cutest thing I’ve ever painted I combined my love of space, birds, and video games into one, recreating my meteor geese painting from last year in the style of Stardew Valley 🐓✨

The @esa.int Gaia satellite will take its final scientific measurements on Wednesday. 🔭 This will conclude a 12 year series of continuous observations. Larger Gaia data releases are still in progress, but Gaia has already had a HUGE impact on our understanding of the #milkyway. (Image: ESA)

📷 This NASA/ESA/CSA James #Webb Space Telescope image shows NGC 346, one of the most dynamic star-forming regions in nearby galaxies, and the study of which recently solved a puzzle by proving a controversial finding made using NASA/ESA #Hubble over 20 years ago! www.esa.int/Science_Expl... 🔭🧪

I'm already really tired of my timeline being full of people disparaging winter, so, fellow winter lovers, let's share how wonderous this season is. These photos were from one winter day along the Straight of Juan de Fuca.

Hello @bsky.app, here's to looking into more #bluesky and beyond... 😉

Happy first day of sun in the PNW

Watching that wanna be Benjamin button guy doc and I can’t help but feel bad, he is clearly mentally ill with an unhealthy obsession. We as a society need to learn to accept and embrace the beauty of aging. It’s a gift not a guarantee

Fought my inner scaries and made it to Florida for family Christmas and I’m SO happy I went. I shared an amazing moment with my nana who has progressing Alzheimer’s looking through old family photos. My heart is full

My gingerbread for this year. Merry Christmas and happy Voyages to all!!

We see you when you’re sleeping We know when you’re awake We know if you been pulling your leads, so be good for goodness sake #EEG #medsky #neuroskyence
