We were just talking about this in my #animals#visualculturehyperallergic.com/953114/did-a...

Did Art History Predict the Rise of Moo Deng?
Did Art History Predict the Rise of Moo Deng?

Just as memes of the viral hippo range from sweet to spooky, art history is rich with terrifying, adorable, and bizarre depictions of the amphibious creatures.

We found a broken dresser sitting along the side of the road. We had plans (plants? 😆) for it! #garden#plants#upcycling#reuse#popofcolor

A wooden dresser painted orange. It sits along an outdoor fence and has trailing plants and ferns in the drawers. Two potted plants sit on top. It is a sunny day and there are shadows from the plants along the front of the dresser.

Have you met Otis? He is ridiculous. #rabbit#houserabbit#minilop

That teeny tiny fluffy cottontail! 🐇 So good to see Miss Cali so chilled out. ❤️

I think they are becoming friends!

Alright, here we go! I have until tomorrow at midnight to write a short (250 words) Sci-Fi story. This genre will certainly push me out of my comfort zone, but I’ll give it a go. Good luck to everyone participating in the NYC Microfiction challenge this weekend!

A screenshot with a writing assignment. The author has to write a short Sci-Fi story. The action that must be included is plugging something in, and the word that must be included is excite.

Pizza, Poirot, and Prosecco. The term is all done but for the grading and final paperwork. Whew.

An iPad playing the opening credits of Agatha Christie’s Poirot starring David Suchet sits next to a small plate with a piece of pizza on it and a champagne flute full of Prosecco.

The Diamine Inkvent advent calendar is such a delight! Right now each morning starts with a little pot of magic.

A notebook page with the date (December 1, 2023) written in gold ink. A small bottle of ink and a gold star holiday ornament sit on the page next to a blue glass dip pen.
A notebook page with the date (December 2, 2023) and the words Cashmere Rose written at the top. A ceramic figurine of a red bird sits next to the notebook as does a small bottle of ink. The notebook is on a well worn wooden desk and in the background you can see other bottles of fountain pen ink.

Yeah, I went there. The poor students in my animal studies class. I’m sure they weren’t prepared for this level of nerdiness. 🤓🐈‍⬛📷 Dress by Svaha USA. Original chronophotographic images by Étienne-Jules Marey in 1894.

A white woman with medium length wavy auburn hair and glasses stands in front of a screen on which a sequence of images of a cat falling and landing on his feet are projected. The woman’s dress has the same series of images in it. She also wears a black face mask.

Many years ago I read a collection of stories that were linked by a piece of art. Each story took place in a different century but the piece of art remained constant. Does this sound familiar to anyone? I'm only recalling the faintest of details but I would love to revisit it. Can anyone help?
