Collection of all of us! We wanted to show off our new lunchboxes too! These photos were taken all on different days, but we waited to post until we’d gathered enough.

We’re all very happy with this headmate in charge for a day method! Occasionally we all still have a day where nobody is in charge and we all get to do one thing we want, but it typically works smoother when one headmate takes the lead and makes the final decisions with some input from the rest of the crew.

BRITTANY: I look the best! Let’s be real!

ELEANOR: No way, it’s clearly me!

BRITTANY: Excuse you! No, It’s me!

ELEANOR: Let’s just agree we both look awesome.

BRITTANY: Fabulous and gorgeous 💖

SIMON: You can’t see it on my face, but that lunchbox fills me with joy and whimsy. I love dinosaurs.

ALVIN 2.0: I LOVE MY CLASSIC ALVIN HOODIE! I’m wearing it for Halloween WHOOOO!

THEODORE: I haven’t experimented a whole lot with fashion, but I have a Winnie The Pooh T-shirt I wanna wear.

JEANETTE: It’s fun having such a varied wardrobe for the doll version of me and the human-size version!

We hope you enjoy seeing these! Being an overt system and not a covert one is risky, but we have to unmask and do what makes ALL OF US feel joy and regulate in our way.

I still think the funniest thing that happened while I was drawing my first few Venoms was that I was receiving propaganda via my liked playlist

Video: 3D images of over 13,000 museum specimens now free to everyone

"The completion of the openVertebrate (oVert) project is a significant milestone for natural history museums, as well as researchers, educators, students, and the public. The digital library is the first to offer free access to incredibly detailed – and, frankly, beautiful – 3D images of over 13,000 vertebrates.

More than a research project, oVert was a collaboration between like-minded specialists across 25 institutions whose sole objective was to add value to museum collections by making them more widely available.

....

For a working example of the incredible detail and information contained in oVert’s images, head to Sketchfab to view a sample of interactive 3D models like the olive sea snake. Or go to MorphoSource to access the full oVert repository.

....

But scientists aren’t the only ones who have benefitted from oVert. Artists have used its 3D models to create realistic animal replicas, photos of oVert specimens have been displayed as museum exhibits, and specimens have been incorporated into VR headsets so users can interact with them. There appears to be no end to oVert’s uses."

Submitted Prompt #66

System A knows that when they switch, it's really noticeable. They envy the systems who can switch quietly and seamlessly mid-convo. But, even with massive personality changes aside, they are disruptive. They sit among a bunch of their friends thinking of this, head pounding with the urge to switch. Already, they're halfway gone, unable to remember what triggered the switch. They make a point to sneak off when the conversation gets to a peak, going to switch somewhere private – or, at least, not around their friends. But as they stumble to the door, a member of the group calls out to them.

"Hey, System A! Leaving so soon?"

They turn to the rest of them, trying to make some excuse and mention they'll be right back. Front slips from their grasp, leaving the words unspoken.

Headmate A2 looks up at their now very concerned friends, embarrassment burning up their face despite the fading dissociation.
