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…

#SilentSunday

A dark grey-blue night sky with a tall tree in the middle. The moon peeks through its branches with its cold, white light. A few houses can be seen behind the foot of the tree with warm light creating a contrast to the coolly coloured sky.

I noticed this yesterday on the steps going down to the shed. With the amount of large seeds clumped in a dark medium it's done fruit eating animal; perhaps a fox, not a badger as they tend to use scrapes and latrines, marginally a Pine Martin but I've never heard of them here.
I guess it's a fox, we have both foxes and badgers close by and they've been seen in the early hours.
There's muntjac as well but it won't be that.
Other ideas or confirmati…

A small pile of dark blue or black animal dropping clumped with large berry stones, possibly cherry.

It's sitting on 20mm grey blue chippings with pine straw.

My favourite hammock for on our balcony broke and landed me on my ass, last month. Just got around to fixing it with parts of a new lashing strap that's rated for much more weight than me. The hammock itself is still in good shape, so this should last me some more years, now.
(I got the hammock from Kickstarter years ago, in a time when I was still fascinated by that website...

A bright green fabric hammock suspended on a balcony. The hammock is attached to a metal frame at the top, which is then secured to the balcony structure with straps. A black cat is visible lying on the balcony floor near the hammock, and various outdoor furniture and household items are in the background.
Close-up of two white fabric straps with purple stitching where they are looped and attached to carabiners, with a brown strap hanging down in the center. In the background, out of focus, is a light-colored outdoor shade and a glimpse of green trees.
The old strap, with a fix I attempted earlier. Of course, the strap was too short and resulted in a lopsided hammock. A coiled grey or tan strap with a small, dark fabric loop at one end, resting on a pillow with a red and grey plaid pattern.

Two powerhouses of interface design, Apple and Microsoft, have come together to deliver this message in a way which succeeds at fulfilling every one of its UI requirements.

A fragment of a screenshot of an error dialog.
"An unknown error has occurred in Outlook."
The dialog has tiny white text over a blurred glassy background which (due to layered desktop and windows behind it) fades from dark green to mid grey, rendering the text extremely hard to read. The titlebar is dark grey, half of which perfectly blends in with the background. The bounding frame of the dialog are close to indiscernable.

Just noticed something about the NATO "family photo". Yes, Queen Maxima stole the show with her stunning yellow jumpsuit, but I think there's another layer here. Everyone knew Trump would turn up front and center in his stupid too blue suit- she made it look like the Ukraine flag.

Trump in bright blue and queen Maxima in bright yellow on the front row, with the King in between. Others in dark blue and grey suits.

A vast Orokin space structure partially encases a damaged grey-beige celestial body resembling a ruined moon or planetoid with scarred fissures and craters. The construct features sweeping gold and dark metallic arches forming an intricate skeletal frame around the decaying world connected by bridge-like pathways and adorned with ornate Orokin detailing. The background is deep space filled with countless stars and faint green nebulae softly illuminating parts of the structure. The scene evokes …

I just updated the prints on my office door to reflect the kind of photos (particularly event photos) that I am taking now -- as well the the new system which supersedes "three sided cards" that attains better branding in every respect except that it doesn't have a name (yet) #photo #photography

Four prints stuck directly onto a brownish-grey door,  all landscape oriented and slightly cut down from letter-sized paper.  From top to bottom:

Daffodils in from of a CORNELL sign

Five cosplayers with white jackets over muted color dresses with dark socks of varying lengths and bow ties on grassy lawn in front of sakura tree

20 or so people wearing denim jackets in front of variously dyed fabric panels

A large pack of runners running away from me

Farlington Marshes, near #Portsmsouth UK. #silentsunday #photography #weather

Flat marshland covered in scrub, with a drainage ditch running through it. lined in reeds. In the distance is a  ridge of higher land with houses on the slope. At the extreme right of the frame some people are walking along the top of concrete sea defences. The weather here is sunny, but in the sky a dark grey raincloud looms, and it seems to be raining over the ridge in the distance.
