Hello everypony! I've been working hard lately, and recently came up with my villainess, Frozen Dawn. I also got a chance to really upgrade my art skills, and wanted to share this most recent iteration.
Frozen Dawn is the alicorn that rules the Stargazer universe, at least in the distant past. She has long used the powers of ice and snow to conquer her enemies, and ensure that her ponies are left undisturbed. However, she eventually was allowed to fall into obscurity and was discarded into the histories of time, left to sleep on a desolate frozen moon on the outskirts of the Aelia system, far from the nearest star.
She has awakened as something new and evil, the Villainess Frozen Dawn, and she will do anything to reclaim her throne and bring the ponies under her heel. All in the name of protection and security.

I don’t know. Why are we here again? Also, I built a Time Machine out of rubber bands and hope. So in the future, I travel to the Exoplanets in a rental spaceship and photograph interesting sights. The journeys help keep the insanity at bay.

There is a worm on Exoplanet 45383 which is not one of the exciting fauna found on alien worlds. It is not gigantic or bizarre or noteworthy. But when it sleeps, the tail end opens up and collects the nutrients in the soil. And they are pretty when they sleep. My host uses them to aerate the soil, and pulled a sleeping worm from the turf so I could get a good photo of their pretty backside.

I just realized that the classic Hollywood trope with a hacker in front of a computer with multiple windows with code being written inhumanly quickly to the screen character by character has become reality thanks to AI coding agents

Whoops, took a nap and now there's only 20 minutes until #MONSTERDON the weekly monster movie watch party! If you want to avoid it, best set up a hashtag filter.
If you want to join in, this week we're watching Stephen King's SILVER BULLET (1985), with blackjack and werewolves!
Tubi crapped the bed for this one, but there's a Pluto link over here where you can stream the film: https://pluto.tv/us/on-demand/movies/5955aba5491f7ff12f598ce0
Or there's an Archive.org download: https://archive.org/details/silver-bullet-1985_202511
Just hit play at the top of the hour and toot along! See you there!

In the hunt for reviewers, an ARC of my #solarpunk novella is now on NetGalley via @SFWA@wandering.shop This is the story of a country that decentralizes power, getting rid of presidents, politicians, ministers, and authoritarians. Instead, every citizen actively participates in running the country in a direct democracy. And there's no capitalism. Help me spread my idea of the future, get it on netgalley or send me a DM.

This is a follow-up image to the Wasted in the Wasteland one. I was going to do a whole series, flesh out a world, spend the rest of my life just doing these.
In the end I did just these two.

I'm still struggling to find my footing here on Mastodon. A bit with the platforms and tags, but mostly finding people to follow. I'm a bit all over the place, posting about my #writing, be it academic or fiction (mostly #SciFi), and about cool #Science I ran into, and the more common than it should be - complain about stuff.
I'm interested in #SFF, #publishing, #MiniaturePainting, science, #queer culture, academia, human sexuality, geekish humor, #comics & #EarthSci.
Recommend people to me!

TOMORROW at 9pm eastern (that's 1am Monday UTC) it's #MONSTERDON the weekly monster movie watch party! Come watch a B-grade stinker with a bunch of nerds!
This week we're watching HERCULES IN NEW YORK (1970)! Arnold Schwarzenegger's acting debut, the movie features Zeus sending Hercules to modern New York. Hilarity, needless to say, ensues. It's pretty awful, they even dubbed over Schwarzenegger's voice. Should be a blast :D

See you on Sunday! :D

Definitely a space ship with it’s energy absorbing tail leaving a planet. Millions of people on this space arc heading off on a generational space journey to the next galaxy.

A lot of the HFY ( Humanity, F**k Yeah!) Sci-Fi stuff on Reddit and YouTube very much fits into this category.
Mostly consisting of pesky aliens getting outclassed by or receiving a good thumping from humanity. It rarely portrays humanity as being the unreasonable party.
If you exclude this and the stories of lost alien princesses which fill the galaxy and continually need rescuing there are still some worthwhile stories but you have to hunt for them.

The #arque from Keio University has had a lot of coverage since 2019. But none of it appears to address a fundamental (sic!) point that I was first caused to think about when reading Jack L. Chalker's Well Of Souls series, where a character's body being altered to have a tail by a sadistic slaver is a plot point.
There's not a single picture, nor a single mention, in the gushing coverage that I have seen, of a wearer sitting down.
It's a really basic aspect of the whole thing, and is totally ignored; which (alongside the 6 years that have passed since) tells us all that we need to know about how blinkered the engineering that went into this is and how uncritical the journalists regurgitating the press releases have been.
Most things of this kind that have reached real medical use have had a fair amount of thought put into how the user eats, sleeps, sits, dresses, goes to the toilet, and suchlike.

Hi fedi folk - It’s lovely to be here! I just moved from mastodon.social to sunny.garden and think it’s time for an #introduction.
I’m Bearina, 30-something from Mannheim, Germany. I make #zines, #ArtistTradingCards and have become a #printmaker recently. I also got back into #photography a few days ago which was my first hobby. I got my first point and shoot camera when I was 12 and fell in love with it before that, using my parents camera and strolling through the neighborhood. I like seeing creativity around me and love to get inspired by other artists.
#SciFi is my jam and I love movies in general. And bears! Lovely creatures.
#DeGoogling right now! Also I’m working on relaunching my website and make it more #IndieWeb friendly and #accessible but also give it a bit more personality. I want to start a blog and share my thoughts. Which reminds me: Words are hard! I try my best but not always succeed.
I’m so excited to meet new people! I toot in German and English.
