Inktober 2026 Day 6 - Ogre Day late, dollars short. I'm really enjoying these Ben Day dot brushes in Procreate! Definitely giving me something to think about! #inktober2026 #inktober

Conservatism has always been a malignancy relentlessly attacking the heart and mind of democracy. Solidarity and courage are all the chemotherapy we need.

AI is a product of the greatest theft of human labor in history. AI's proponents are evil people working to make the world worse in every way. There is not a single decent, good faith actor in a position of leadership at any of the companies and government offices forcing chatbots upon us all.

Every time a discourse kicks off over whether AI music, literature or art will be "as good as" the real thing, I'm always amazed more people don't cite that **there already are** creative pursuits where human-free spectacles have been available for decades, and nobody has ever wanted to watch them.

Finally, had the chance to read Molly Crabapple’s fantastic book Here Where We Live is Our Country. Prior to this read, my awareness of the Jewish Bund started and ended with the awareness that there was something called the “Jewish Bund”. I am thankful to know much more now.

Religious fundamentalism is a cancer that rots and mutilates every society that allows its practitioners to wield any form of meaningful power. In my lifetime, US fundamentalists have mutated from fringe creeps average people avoided to genuine, active threats to democracy and bodily autonomy.
