Imagine if a crib that sometimes collapsed while a baby slept inside was treated as an impossible to predict feature of the emergent complexity of cribs and therefore we decided nothing could be done.

It's like looking inside a Kaleidescope and saying "I saw towering spires more complex than any human design, this must be a new autonomous architecture" but it's just a chamber of mirrors and lenses around the material world it is reflecting distortedly.

Every time I've pushed back on those I get "but it's still better because we'll control the House/Senate." Control means nothing if it doesn't get you GOOD instead of EVIL.

I am slowly doing a set of fantasy inspired jars and bottles. My Modron Grease jar came out far more how I envisioned (though I want to do another later that incorporates gears). Also still need to make fancy labels.

It COULD have been worse. I'm definitely more offended by it because it's nowhere near what it should have been than by it's actual look. It got severely hampered by the bottom Latte layer not working right (was mixed too wet).

Our staff is hard at work on your divination! We will be with you momentarily.
A digital illustration of various hamsters on a table cluttered with objects such as spellbooks, candles, herbs, and mushrooms. 

One hamster is asleep in the eye socket of a cat skull, another is eating a mushroom, two appear to be contemplating a spread of three tarot cards (three of swords, death, 10 of cups), another hamster investigates a bottle of spilled sunflower seeds, one is pawing at a glass bowl containing a newt (which is likewise pawing at the hamster from inside), and lastly a hamster appears to be scurrying off screen dragging a knife.

This glaze did... not come out how I thought. In fact, none of the layers came out the way I expected. It was definitely not supposed to look like a gangrenous boob. (It's a jar) 🧶

A Tennessee appellate court has ruled that the killing of a woman may have been justifiable because she was trans. The court reversed a conviction, stating that the killer could have a new trial because the jury did not know the woman killed was trans. Trans panic in the modern era.

Killing of Woman May Have Been Justifiable Because She Was Trans, Tennessee Court Rules
The case is a bitter reminder of the ways LGBTQ people have had their identities weaponized by the courts in the past, most notoriously through a legal defense tactic known as gay or trans “panic.”

"Lupe" shared this video saying, "It’s 96° in Gonzales. CA law requires employers to provide shade for workers. But in this non-union cauliflower field, there’s only one shade structure for over 40 workers. It isn't right to put workers' lives at risk." #WeFeedYou

To do this through a dissociative medium that already trains us to think of its contents as less real. As so much entertainment. So much content. It is not merely immoral, but the screaming, atavistic *absence* of morality--not coincidentally this defines Hegseth's entire approach to the Pentagon.

And further, the response when they invariably come back with some bullshit about it being rude or impolite or whatever should be, "Then stop being Nazis."

Some of mine are funny. They think I'm the only adult in the household. "Favors Canadian-made mint products" "Maintains consistent mint consumption" Makes candles as a hobby (uh nope) Most of the rest is predictable (I read fantasy/sci-fi, garden, and do pottery)
