My phone rang. As did the phones of everybody else in the coffee shop. Unknown number.
I looked around. Everyone inside, and on the street outside, stared at their phones and rejected the call.

Breakfast in the Grass
In the crisp morning light, a lively scene unfolds as northern cardinals (Cardinalis cardinalis) and goldfinches (Spinus tristis) gather on the ground. With their brilliant red and vibrant yellow plumage, these feathered friends busily forage for seeds, creating a picturesque moment of nature's simple beauty. The cheerful chirping and flurry of activity add a touch of magic to the serene morning landscape.

I was going to respond to a post that mentioned this, but I didn't want to get involved with the political angle, since my comment was purely linguistic.
With relation to terminology, I have never understood the addition of tq. That is, homosexuality and bisexuality, just like heterosexuality, are about choosing partners of the same or opposite sex, or of both sexes, respectively. But transexuality is about changing your own sex. It has nothing to do with whom you love. I only know queer in reference to gay men, so I can't comment there.
Glad that helped a bit.
You can absolutely defy gender norms without being trans. If you see yourself as a woman, then you're a woman. ππ»

as Valentine was also the saint of Bees & my reading about hitomezashi side tracked into Blackwork, this month's Mail Art was a Bee themed blackwork pattern!
THEN I went and actually wrote up the pattern properly & it can now be found in my Ko-Fi shop!

The alien translation device squawked and then: "You #dancing?"
"What?" I blinked at my interlocutor. "Er... You asking?"
"I'm asking." Tentacles extended towards me.
I gulped. "I'm dancing."
Stepping forwards, I REALLY hoped the translator was accurate and not being coy.

A recent study reveals that 37 out of 45 birds-of-paradise species exhibit biofluorescence, absorbing UV or blue light and emitting it as vibrant colors. This phenomenon enhances males' courtship displays and may serve as camouflage for females. Nature's wonders never cease to amaze!

This is Kynlee Rogers, born with a cleft lip; and her dog, Tennee, born with a cleft lip. Rogers used to ask her mom Kimberly why she was different from other kids, a challenging thing for any parent to have to answer. She doesnβt ask anymore though, because sheβs not different; just look at her [β¦]

I don't have the answer but I have some context. This was a female grizzly bear and her two cubs in a warm summer day. No male around so she was not advertising anything to the boys. She was very relaxed and grazing in the meadow with her cubs. They were not threatened or stressed by anything. I assume she was rolling in something smelly. Was it smelling good or bad? that I don't know. Maybe her perfume is Fleurs des champs. π
