Usually my job is a drag. But sometimes I get to make friends with very sweet dogs, and this one stole a kiss from me the other day.

The backseat of a silver pickup. A yellow lab in in the center of the photo, looking at the camera. In front of the dog on the seat is a black and yellow toolbox.
The background is a fully lit treescape, putting the interior of the pickup in shadow.

A longish post which goes beyond the description of the heroic pause. This message is my takeaway

Screen shot from the post linked below. Text reads:
So here's how I would urge you all to celebrate Stanislav Petrov Day this year. Remember the example of the man who disobeyed orders to ignore what the cutting-edge computer system was telling him to do, and saved untold millions of lives in the process. Whatever an Al is telling you, whether it's a warning of a national security threat or a business efficiency" recommendation or healthcare "cost-saving" or personal "communication tips," do not trust it unreservedly. Do not let yourself become a meat-puppet for unthinking software because it's easier in the short run. Do not take irreversible actions, especially actions putting life at risk, due to AI guidance.

Disobey, always, rather than do something barbarous.

in 2022 I wrote a movie called Route 0. It was submitted to festivals, bounced around a little while, some people read it. Ultimately rejected? But SOMEONE liked it because it was stolen and turned into a movie

I try not to go overboard on media criticism but I do think "the chief executive is openly trying to rig the legislative elections in his party's favor" should merit somewhat higher prominence relative to mundane normalcy horserace coverage.

The Democratic Party has let a consulting industry exploit elderly donors in its name, wreck its reputation and finances in the process, and walk away rich whether the party wins or loses. When a mirror is held up, the instinct is to break the glass rather than look. On why the press looks away:

This is a story about the Democratic Party captured by its consultants, and about what happens when the pro-democracy press is asked to say so.

An angel with a heart shaped structure and in pink and brown and with pink wings and many eyes like baubles

A rustic bulbous telly with blobby rain plopping on it in blue ink

An angel in a nightie with a wavy halo with lovely blue twinkling eyes and dripping damp arms and green environs

An angel that is a partly a vertical fish, with grainy wings and a cloud above with more eyes peeping out at the top in the pink region

Your bad art is better than AI slop.

four frame comic. first frame shows a typical AI poster that says : All chatgpt flyers look the same, especially with this font! the text above it reads : I won't go to your event if the poster was made by AI. second frame shows a still frame from a Hank Green youtube video. text above reads : I won't read your post or email and I won't watch your video if they were made with AI. third frame shows an AI restaurant poster of burgers and chicken in a window. text reads : I won't patronize your shop or restaurant if it is advertised with AI. last frame shows an MS paint window with badly written : Your bad art is better than AI slop. text reads : if you can't take the time or make the effort to interact with me yourself, then why should I do it?
