This could potentially be a fantastic (NO A.I !) drawing / art reference for all kinds of hairstyles:
"The HJ Gallery
Seventy years of hairdressing inspiration created by some of the industry's most iconic names, including Vidal Sassoon, Trevor Sorbie and Anthony Mascolo "

I will do more Yuletide recs at some point, but for now, the gift I got (comicverse Steven/Jake having fluffy headspace sex with feelings, plus the House of Shadows being the best House) is lovely and you should all read it:
The Spaces That Hold Us (4468 words) by estelraca
Chapters: 1/1
Fandom: Moon Knight (Comics)
Rating: Explicit
Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply
Relationships: Steven Grant/Jake Lockley, Steven Grant & Jake Lockley & Marc Spector
Characters: Steven Grant (Marvel), Jake Lockley, House of Shadows (Moon Knight)
Additional Tags: Oral Sex, Psychological Drama
Summary: Steven and Jake don’t know where they are, but it feels real enough to hold each other in, and that’s useful sometimes.Also! At some point in the past I saved a list of several dozen links to art tutorials…and most of them have disappeared from the internet since. Here are the ones that remain. Grab ’em before they go too:
Group of art/writing tutorials, with a focus on webcomics
How to draw beef…not actually about food, it’s an anatomy tutorial for big muscles
A whole ebook about constructive anatomy
Smashing’s roundup of Traditional Drawing tutorials is very old. Somebody else want to click through and see how many are still available?
Not a tutorial, but a resource: Medieval fantasy city-map generator.

“Yes, plants need sunlight, but some need less than others, and indeed get stressed by too many photons. Shading those crops [with solar panels] means they will require less water, which rapidly evaporates in an open field. Plus, plants “sweat,” which cools the panels overhead and boosts their efficiency. ‘It is a rare win-win-win.'”
“Running Tide and other carbon-removal companies are discovering what it means to take carbon seriously. It’s still very possible that kelp itself won’t end up being a feasible approach to removing carbon from the atmosphere. Still, the company is a preview of a future in which “net zero” is something more than faraway corporate promises.”
This cat’s skin glows fluorescent green under UV light! The gene is in his living cells, so it doesn’t show up in his fur…they should’ve shaved him for the news segment.
“These days, ‘Ata is considered uninhabitable. But “by the time we arrived,” Captain Warner wrote in his memoirs, “the boys had set up a small commune with food garden, hollowed-out tree trunks to store rainwater, a gymnasium with curious weights, a badminton court, chicken pens and a permanent fire, all from handiwork, an old knife blade and much determination.” While the boys in Lord of the Flies come to blows over the fire, those in this real-life version tended their flame so it never went out, for more than a year.“
“Simply enter your text and see it transform into visual retro-futuristic wave.”
Extremely-cool color visualization tool. Upload your art, see what kind of 3D value waveforms it makes. (Check out this long demo video to see it in action on a WIP.)
“I got bored during this quarantine season so I made a nostalgic personality quiz! Take it and find out which of six common Otaku Senshi tropes you fall into and get gently called out!“
Turns out there’s a simple and easy step you can add to basic shoelace knots to make them twice as strong. Suddenly, my laces don’t come undone by themselves while I’m in the middle of a walk anymore! Bless this website owner whose special interest is “tying your shoelaces.”

Is that something people would be interested in?
Rock generator for greater artistic control over references. Expect no photorealism. They're plain and untextured, biased towards shapes that complement the style I'm going for. I can share once I add and fix a few details.
