Vending machine pitstop 🎃 Another illustration in my Blythewood series [ #oc #art #originalcharacter ]
A drawing of left to right - Reimi (raindrop), Harvey (prince) and Meikai (bear) in Blythewood. Reimi is stood in front of a vending machine choosing a drink while Harvey leans on it looking at Meikai. Meikai is sat on the floor looking at a can that has rolled out which has a small creature inside. The background is a town in autumn and the reflection on the floor shows Reimi and Harvey looking towards him with no faces. Meikai does not cast a reflection. The drawing is bordered by leaves at the top

The traps are paired muscles that shape the neck, shoulders, and upper back. When the head turns, one side contracts while the other lengthens, helping stabilise the movement. #anatomy #3dmodeling #characterdesign

Please help that guy do more EN language reporting on/in BR. What's going on there is important, yes even to people outside of BR, and there's not enough EN language reporting on it.

GOOD NEWS! Researchers have discovered a new antibiotic, known as manikomycin, that may be a bulwark in the fight against drug-resistant superbugs. By attacking the ribosome in a never-before-seen way, manikomycin can evade the existing mechanisms pathogens have developed to resist antibiotics.

Lots of progress on the cotton shawl. There were many, many mistakes to get to this point resulting in lots of frogging back which was incredibly frustrating. Between both balls I still have a good amount of yarn remaining which I hope is enough to get through 1 more full repeat.

AP Stylebook warns against anthropomorphizing AI systems: “Avoid language that gives them human characteristics… Instead, explain what a system does, how well it performs, who built it and who could be affected by it.”
APStylebook @APStylebook
X.com
Artificial intelligence systems do not think, feel, want or understand. Avoid language that gives them human characteristics. This is called anthropomorphizing, when we ascribe human traits, emotions or behaviors to non-human things, such as animals or inanimate objects.
Instead, explain what a system does, how well it performs, who built it and who could be affected by it.
