I am so happy he’s a Red right now, and I’ll be crushed when the Dodgers steal him for $1B to help them win another World Series when it comes to it.

Photographed NYC-based artist Shahzia Sikander's fantastic exhibit at the Cincinnati Art Museum, was privileged to meet her (she's wonderful), and was lucky enough to go to Cleveland to photograph her exhibit there for her, too. Seeing those images on Hyperallergic this morning is so satisfying.

Shahzia Sikander’s Transgressive Femininity
In the artist's works, a woman is at once a social subject pushing back against marginalization and a disruptive energy, a flow that transcends barriers.

Stand up is one of my favorite things to listen to/watch, but I’ve never watched or listened to Kill Tony before. I decided to give the Netflix special a go, and I made it 12 mins before turning it off. I know this isn’t the benchmark for modern stand up, but I didn’t expect it to be this unfunny.

They’re all over Reels. I keep getting them in my feed. I’ve never seen people act worse in a movie theater. It’s wild.

Have you seen the videos of what they’re talking about? They come up in my Reels and it’s like watching a train wreck. I can’t look away.

Yes. I also wish it would stir interaction more with randoms who have similar interests. I don't like Threads, but I feel like I'm yelling into the void on Bluesky, and over there it's far more active.

I've been using the same 2018 12-inch iPad Pro since it launched for drawing and light tasks. A $2K foldable iPhone without a stylus and a smaller screen doesn't appeal to me at this time. Considering how Apple missed the mark with Vision Pro, I doubt iPad is doomed. 9to5mac.com/2025/03/31/s...

Finally decided to watch Andor after three years of not watching Andor. (It came out when I was too into Trek to care about Wars). The fact they named one of the main characters “Tim” instead something like Slurd or Togwarth or Yanz immediately puts it at the top of my list.

Oh god, Star Trek V was so bad. I need to see that one again because I don’t remember much about it besides suffering through it. Shatner should’ve never been in charge of making a movie.

Phil @cincyphil.bsky.social · 24/03/2025
It’s obviously a bad movie, its problems are many, and my eyeballs rolled out of my head 20+ times while watching it, but it’s not my least favorite Trek thing I’ve seen. I hope whatever straight-to-streaming Trek movie they make in the future isn’t more of this, though.

As a fan of I Think You Should Leave and as a bigger fan of Star Trek, I was wholly unprepared for the Sam Richardson reveal in this Section 31 movie (yes, finally getting around to watching it).

Keep thinking about how the brand with famously bad self-driving cars is now the darling of the dumbest, worst people in America, and how this new problem is likely going to result in killing people who never wanted any of this.

Another stab at a scene and a sign to convey a thought. I think I used 'ADD' for this one. Personally, I think this one turned out the best. 🧵(5 of 5)

Stuck with the 'DARK' setting and thought about a composition that might tell a story or convey a thought. I went with a very simple shot of a residence and a sign nearby. I think this is probably the most compelling creative use for this mode. 🧵(4 of 5)

I switched over to 'DARK' for the next one. It's messy, but also there's something about it I like. It seems to slap together the darkest pixels between each image, filling the lighter pixel space with the other image. The colors take a weird turn, too. 🧵(3 of 5)

Still learning the settings, so flying a bit blind, but the results are more interesting than I thought they’d be. You shoot two NEFs and it automatically generates a JPG. You can access all three files in your editing software later. This one was made with the 'LIGHT' setting. 🧵(2 of 5)

Never paid much attention to ‘Multiple Exposure’ mode on the nikonzf. Today, though, I played around with it, and I think it might be a nice tool to catalyze creativity when inspiration fails. 🧵(1 of 5)

Back at the hotel for the evening, but had a nice time walking around #Cleveland this evening.
A statue in the foreground bathed in golden light with two skyscrapers in the distance. This scene is on Hope Memorial Bridge in Cleveland, OHA train bounding around a slight curve with a ray of golden sunset light splitting in in the middle of the two cars. Beneath the rails is a low wall with graffiti painted on it surrounded by wispy dead grasses. In the distance is an urban scene with brick buildings and a small bell tower.An evening scene of an empty corner of Little Italy in Cleveland. On the right is a corner pizzeria shop with plate glass windows that look into a cozy atmosphere. To the left is a car at an intersection with an ornate brick building behind it. This is the corner of Murray Hill and Cornell in Cleveland, OH.The Cleveland Museum of Art seen in the far distance with a pristine lake between the viewer and the museum. Geese are scattered across the grass in the foreground, and two rows of concrete steps cascade outward  from the viewer toward the left and right sides of the frame in the foreground. The whole scene is during sunset, so everything looks warm and serene.

I’m in Cleveland for work. Second time ever here, and finally made it over to the Guardians of Traffic on Hope Memorial. They’re every bit as gorgeous as I thought they’d be.
