I am Sleepy. But. I have diagnosed a Garbage Disposal. I have finished knitting a Sock. I have worked on Projects. I am Tired. I hope all of you have had as Fulfilling A Day as I have had.

I love Magrat so much. It took her a bit to find her True Self, but she did, in the end.

OK, this sounds weird, but... I would like to write a book that Sticks With Readers. It may be mediocre. It may be, actually, Not Very Good. But, I would like to have a Positive Message That Lets People Hang On To Positive Things. And that is why I write.

I mean, she would, but would she also not have thoughts about the Creepy Creeper Watching Through The Window? I feel that would have been More Pressing.

He is. We are fighting. I swear, we are fighting. STEM: Look what we can do! Humanities (the E in STEAM): But should you?

I mean, lots of people forget to be polite & kind to their partners. It goes a long way. Just say "Thank you" and "I love you" every day. It doesn't mean treating the other person as a stranger; it means treating the other person with love & appreciation.

And why are a bee's knees apparently so wonderful? I mean, they are delicate joints. But. Dogs love breakfast. Many cats hate pajamas. Bees are probably ambivalent about their knees.

KOSA is deliberately designed to, and will be used to, ban all queer content online as "pornography" including helpful orgs such as Trevor Project and Trans Lifeline. Tell your reps to vote NO on this monstrosity.

If you want to improve your style....learn to draw bodies. Real bodies. Marked, scarred, disfigured, bald, wrinkly, old and young. Learn to draw real people and you will learn to find so many more things beautiful. The best thing you can do for your art is to fall in love with being human.

Even from a purely self-interested perspective, Bluesky is very much building a brand based upon it being a safer place to exist online. Allowing Jesse Singal to remain, who is a known and active harasser, actively harms that brand and does nothing to attract valuable new users.

My biggest issue with AI evangelism in our industry is that it treats creativity like a problem to be solved, and not an adventure to be had.

I feel that the solution to this is to paint some Cybertrucks Red. Wait, I do not think that is a solution. But they might be able to differentiate themselves from dumpsters.

I had some leftover Fries. I also had some leftover Peanut Sauce Curry (with Chicken). I combined the two, and they were surprisingly delicious. A little pickled ginger might have been nice, but maybe not All The Pickled Veggies.
