#Look for Circles Day

Look for Circles Day

Look for Circles Day is celebrated on November 2 every year. A circle is a shape where all the points in the shape are equidistant from a given point, which makes the center. This holiday is celebrated across the country and is a day set aside to look for circles in the world around us. The day is meant to be a fun activity for kids and adults alike. In addition to being a fun day outside, the day helps young children learn to identify shapes, which is an important part of their development.

History of Look for Circles Day

Look for Circles Day is an opportunity to take your kids out and spend time looking for circles in everyday life and in nature — whatever your surroundings may be. Very simply, a circle is a closed curve, and it is a shape that can be found in everyday objects and nature. A circle is a shape where all the points in the shape are on the same plane and are equidistant from a single point in the middle, which is known as the center of the circle. Circles may also be defined as a type of ellipse or a closed curve that has two regions — an interior and an exterior.

Look for Circles Day is not only a great way to encourage children to look for shapes in the world around them, but it is also great for encouraging children to pay more attention to their surroundings and appreciate the world around them. Shape recognition is an important aspect of participating in the world around us, and encouraging children to look for shapes strengthens their capacity to identify shapes and patterns in their environment. Circles are an easy shape to start with since they are one of the easiest shapes to find and identify in the modern world and nature.

Circles are used extensively in art as well, and many cultures have used the circle to represent important values and ideas artistically. Rotation, revolution, and other circular movements are important to everyday life, and as a result, the circular shape can be found easily in modern life. Circles and spheres are also easily seen in nature — from the rings on tree trunks to drops of water.

Made this for the Solarpunk Aesthetic Week server in a sudden creative fever, so I guess I'll post it here too hh

A relative of mine knows someone who teaches kids, so I'm gonna suggest this as an art project for them! The idea is that students could each make/decorate their own shelf, then put them together to form a hive, which could function as mini lockers in their classrooms. Then, by the end of the school year or something, they could either take their own little shelf home (or exchange them with their peers?), or recycle them into materials for the next class! Hopefully it'll teach them about pollinators too 🐝

Idk how doable this project is really, and its scary to imagine one of my silly designs could actually become something tangible irl. But even so, I'm still excited to try 🥰 (And if anyone else attempts this too, please let me know!!!)

#art #artists on tumblr #solarpunk #earth day #ani if u see this thank u for the inspiration <3 #and uhhh idk if art can be considered action but....... #solarpunk action week #SPAW #roobiedoodle #not many people responded in the server so idk if its any good really ;;;; just leaving it here to archive ig #so far ive only shared solarpunky ideas within my tiny social circle so. its scary to think about reaching out to strangers with all this #ik like community is a big part of the movement but liiiike. OOOGH. WAAAGH IDK IDK WE'LL SEE HOW IT GOES #ok. random extra idea: i think the nest design would also look vv cool as a ceiling lamp 💡 thats how it hangs irl anyway! #bugs #wasp #insects #<-SORRY I FORGOT TO TAG WARNINGS

ok hi usually i dont post these kinda things but

recently theres been a discord scam going around and i havent seeeeen anyone bring it up? nor was i able to find a lot of info online about it

essentially, the scammer (using the account of someone you’ve friended OR someone in a server your in) will approach you and tell you that theyve falsely reported you + that your account could be deleted if you dont appeal to discord. this is the message that was sent to me v

and this is a version sent to my friend (the same email screenshot was also included after this message) v

once you reach out to the user listed in the email, they’ll ask you to fill out your information, then boot you from the account. by that point they will have access your account and will more than likely use it to spread to more people

as shown the scam itself tends to have some variety- not all of its gonna be word for word, exactly the same- so be careful! if you suspect someone you know has been caught up in the scam, be sure to block and to reach out on other platforms if possible.

stay safe !

(bonus- a closer up of the email + some scam advice from a friend)

(scam advice from friend)

#discord #scam alert #this went around in my friend circle for a bit #i know two people who got it. and i as well #i dont know for sure just how big its gotten so… putting this out there just in case #really the main main reason im posting this is cuz. i wouldve been more guillable to it if my friend hadnt shown me their #screenshots a few days before i got the message jfkf #so knowing what it looked like helped #so hopefully i can save a few ppl from losing their accounts at the very least jfkf

Carry on Countdown | Day Six: WLW

This year I decided I wanted to honor the incredibly talented fic writers of this fandom, so I chose one fic per prompt to do an illustration for. I didn’t double up on authors so that I could do this for as many people as possible. I realized while planning this that there are way too many fics and authors that I love, and even after having picked 30 of what I consider some of my very favorites, I could have easily kept going. Please check the fics out if you haven’t, they all come highly recommended.

#sky cotl #sky children of the light #thatskygame #sky but with dinosaurs #skytober 2023 #A moth fresh off the press and the perfect dinosaur to accompany them #Eoraptor #One of the earliest known dinosaurs #I know there’s other ones that are possibly earlier but this one is cute #I never realized how morning in home space looked until I had to color this #Very brown?

Gotta fix that lol

it’s hilarious to me that fushiguro went back to his old middle school and everyone talked about how his sister, who went to middle school with him, was the one taking care of him because I’m convinced that seventeen year old gojo had his ass in a chair every pta meeting starting shit with the other moms and the entire administration collectively said “that man cannot even take care of himself” and decided twelve year old tsumiki was the only possible caretaker

#jjk #jujutsu kiasen #fushiguro megumi #gojo satoru #jjk spoilers #fushiguro tsumiki #fushiguro terrorized his middle school so thoroughly that he left and came back a year later and people almost pissed themselves #and gojo is 1200% that parent who finds out their kid got in a fight and sprints into the office to find out if they won #teacher: I’m very concerned about fushiguro. he gets into multiple fights every single day #principal: we have to take into consideration his home life. he’s being raised by someone who’s a child themself #teacher: do you mean gojo #principal: tsumiki #look gojo was seventeen and completely insane and his boyfriend just broke up with him so he could start a cult #Shoko was basically a child of divorce #his ENTIRE social circle was Megumi and tsumiki #overinvolved middle aged mother of four: I’m very concerned about the math curriculum #gojo age 17 decided teenage fatherhood could fix him: the math curriculum is a FUCKING DISGRACE #fushiguro was an eleven year old delinquent in such eternal discomfort that he was on the verge of ending it all if anyone looked at him #and there was gojo. the embarrassment. #pov youre just trying to run a school but a 17 year old magician with a terrible personality broke up with his equally atrocious boyfriend #now he keeps showing up pta meetings and trying to fight the other moms in the parking lot
