Somehow, the head angle looks extreme but only when you rotate the image upside down (even though the depiction itself is technically upside down), haha.

@originalucifer@moist.catsweat.com Another case of a floating woman with only one shoe on. I don't know why this happens so much. It's about as common as witches losing their hats in flight.

Edit: Of course! Safebooru has tags for this. Good stuff there.

Using thunder as my client and viewing from .world I think I can still read the whole thing :)

Welp, that's by far the longest alt text I've ever written here. I wonder if it gets cut off at character limit when it federates. I've been trying to post new types of content here, so let's see how this comic does.

I would spend way too much time doing this

A tired Redditor discovered neutral buoyancy and wanted to show it off. The comments are wholesome, and others are sharing their memories of perfectly balancing their balloons. And that's what we're all about here.

Welcome, and thank you for posting! I had never heard of happy ghasts, so this sent me down a rabbit hole. Up to four players can ride one in flight? That shoots down my idea of ghasts being ghosts, or even lighter than air. The tame version comes dehydrated and shriveled up. Does that make it a sea creature? The most likely floating I can think of now is #airswimming , so I'm tagging it that.

August 18 is Helium Day, the anniversary of the Pierre Janssen's discovery of the element of helium in 1868. If you're going to use helium for balloons, you'd better get good use out of them, at least. But I'll tell you, most #HeliumDay content out there isn't about balloons. It's weirder than this.

It's probaly heart heart.

Neuro has a tendecy to repeat the word heart.

We dabble in generative AI sometimes, like chatbot sessions and art experiments. AI should never replace real artists, but sometimes it does something special that's worth sharing.

I think that's the case with AI-powered VTuber Neuro-sama. Neuro is a well-tuned combination of different AI processes that we expect to be opinionated and deranged, and she destroys everyone at Osu! while chatting with viewers. But that hashtag, #heartheartart ... Is that read "heart heart art" or "hear the art art"?

It turns out the answer is "Yes, but to make it float in the air, you have to heatstretch it as big as possible." To my knowledge, @lobowolf@blimps.xyz is the only person to successfully make a pool toy float with helium.

the cats were apparently unharmed

I feel like this was like "we investigated ourselves and determined we did no wrong."

I'm sure they suffered no major injury, but I think if you asked the cats they would really emphasize that they did not consent to this and it wasn't okay.

Edit: Also you can literally see one of the cats getting wet in the photo

Life Magazine photographer Philippe Halsman is famous for asking famous people to jump. When his photo of Salvador Dalí came out on August 9, 1948, they went above and beyond. Halsman's assistants threw those cats at least 26 times, but the cats were apparently unharmed and dry. We can't say the same for Halsman and his assistants.

This is beautiful!

lmao

Hey, you up there! That is not what I meant by "flying with an umbrella". I've given you plenty of examples of doing it right...

@potterybyosa@mastodon.social
For all the over crowding, we still have some amazing natural spots left.

@hal_pomeranz@infosec.exchange @mycrowgirl@flipping.rocks I’ve been. It’s where I’ve seen the most manatees in one place. This is Rainbow Springs. We’ve got a lot of beautiful gems here. I made a list once and realized I’ve visited 18 springs so far.

@potterybyosa@mastodon.social @mycrowgirl@flipping.rocks So lovely. Is that Blue Springs? If not, you should also check out Blue Springs State Park.

@potterybyosa@mastodon.social your video is exquisite, like pro pro. How did you ever get down into the water and back up without drips!? Don't tell me, let's just let it be your natural magic.

@potterybyosa@mastodon.social @superball@norcal.social it's true though that it's a bubble. There's a reason those men at the end are pulling you out of the water because right is that water hits a certain temperature of Florida closes back in like an Iron maiden! Lol. Omg missingggg.

@potterybyosa@mastodon.social Respect to that! Keep feeding those alligators. 😁💚🐊

@superball@norcal.social The springs have become increasingly crowded over the years with tourists, so I’m just doing my civic duty here. 🐊

@potterybyosa@mastodon.social HaHAha you’re very brave. 😉

@superball@norcal.social They’re swarming, all over the place. Very, very dangerous. Do not come.

Hehehe 😂
