This is a sad evening. By the time this posts, my WoW sub will have expired. I will not be renewing it.
I have played WoW since 2006. I have played it almost as long as all my relationships combined. (There's been a couple sizable gaps between 'ships, yo.) I have dozens of alts. 2 years played time (yeah, not THAT much considering, but I also play other games and have taken a couple year long breaks.)
WoW had always been there as an excellent escape from reality when I …

a WoW human stands on a beach, in front of a massive crystal jutting down from the "sky" (Hallowfall is a giant cave, so big you can barely see the roof and you can't see the other end of it behind my character). The crystal glows yellow like a sun against the blue backdrop of the cave's "atmosphere". To the left of the photo is just the hint of some of the cave walls/cliffs. He is striking a pose, holding his staff aloft in front of him vertically. His name is Mathodne (Muh-thawed-nuh, sorry i…

Content warning: Spiders and Titanic: The Oddest Pairing You Didn’t See Coming

Warning for anyone scared of spiders or the Titanic wreck!
Spiders used to terrify me so much I couldn’t even sleep. I overcame it by doing what they call exposure therapy, just googling spiders and looking at pictures until it felt less scary. Now, I actually want to own a tarantula as a pet, which is kind of funny.
Something I’m even more scared of is the Titanic wreckage. It’s a oddly specific weird fear, but I think it’s a specific kind of Submechanophobia, where the fear is …

Close-up macro photo of a jumping spider on a bright green leaf. The spider’s body is covered in fine light-brown and grey hairs, giving it a fuzzy look. Its large, iridescent purple and red jaws stand out, facing forward. Two big, bright green eyes add an almost alien appearance. The spider’s thick, hairy legs have dark tips. The background is softly blurred green and blue, focusing attention on the spider’s detailed features. The image shows the spider’s beauty up close without being threaten…

The photograph shows a section of the wrecked RMS Titanic on the ocean floor, focusing on rusted and corroded railings and deck structures. Marine growth like sea anemones, sponges, and small white invertebrates cover the metal, creating a textured surface in rusty orange, brown, and grey-white tones. The railing is twisted and broken, with a dark sea fan-like organism attached.

The scene is dark and somber, surrounded by deep ocean gloom. It evokes a strong sense of decay, time passing, and n…

Bitter Willow & Mountain Pine by the lakeside.
(The beautiful blue backgrounds are the colors of the water)

Close up picture of branches of a small bitter willow tree, with flowers and cotton-like fluff. The picture almost looks like a pattern of a kimono...

Macro photo of a single twig of a dwarf mountain pine with flowers at the tip. The background is a plain azure, the color of the nearby lake, completely out of focus.

"Vancouver has 22 civic libraries. Victoria has 12. The streets of these two cities, however, have well over 1,000 unincorporated “little libraries”. You’ve seen them, of course. Those quaint little bird-house structures, placed along sidewalks, usually with a glassed-in front to keep the contents safe from the elements. Inside these little boxes there is always the oddest selection of books, and almost always something that will pique your interest. "

The image features a charming yellow house with a blue-tiled roof and green shutters on the windows. The house has a small staircase leading up to the entrance, with a wooden handrail. In the foreground, there is a large, detailed wooden birdhouse designed to resemble a miniature house, complete with a gray roof and white trim, mounted on a wooden post. The garden in front of the house is well-maintained, with various plants and flowers, including purple flowers in the window boxes. The scene i…

Good Morning ESWC2025! The last conference day is about to start. Looking forward to an interesting keynote, more presentations and interesting discussions! Most interesting to see for me this year was the presence of neurosymbolic topics almost everywhere in our community.

Portoroz seaside view. @lysander07 The image depicts a serene coastal scene. In the foreground, a rocky shoreline with large, irregularly shaped stones borders a calm, expansive body of water. The water is a tranquil blue, reflecting the partly cloudy sky above. A small white sailboat is anchored in the distance, adding a touch of life to the scene. The background features a hilly landscape with a densely populated area, likely a town or city, characterized by numerous buildings and greenery. T…

Skies cleared up just in time for solar activity to get even higher (Kp 8)...
... and the sun to come up. I grabbed a single digit number of shots but the eastern sky was already visibly bright naked eye and my long-exposure shots started getting washed out.
Forecast shows activity will be decent all day (good luck Asian/European sky watchers!) and might persist into the dark for me tonight. Fingers crossed.
