The soundtrack is amazing and while working I listen to it in my Dune playlist that also includes all the music from the films for a seamless Dune soundscape.

When seeking shelter from a storm, any overhang will do and look for an icon on the side of the screen to show if you are “sheltered” or not. Also works for vehicles.

Kingfisher 🪶 🐡

Photo of a small painting being held by a hand for scale with a small paintbrush visible resting on the table behind it. The painting is of a female belted kingfisher, a dark blue and white bird with a long pointed beak evolved for catching fish. This bird has the belt of orange-red feathers which gives it its name and indicates it's a female. The painting is soft and a little dreamy with an out of focus grey-blue background.

Big tech paused CA’s GenAi transparency bill AB412 behind closed doors. However, over 3.8 million creative workers have come together to demand transparency! This coalition isn’t going anywhere! Its sponsors, CAA, SAG AFTRA, NAVA Voices & The Author’s Guild have next steps! Here’s what to do👇

AB-412 UPDATE
The Al Copyright Transparency Act
WE'RE NOT GOING AWAY
Artists & Creators Must Have Transparency!
The irony of a transparency bill dying in the dark is not lost on those of us in the creative community.
Big Tech is terrified of transparency. Big Tech, who has fought us every step of the way on the Al Copyright Transparency Act, has now succeeded in getting the legislature to kill AB-412 behind the closed doors of an appropriations committee.
It should be noted that AB-412 was a bill that had no fiscal appropriation whatsoever.
This will be devastating to the creative industries, their IP, and the hundreds of thousands of creative workers who bring billions of dollars to California's economy. Creative workers are struggling, and this very simple transparency bill could have helped countless people. The issue is not going away, and delaying workable solutions for such an increasing problem will only make the situation worse for everybody.
Our coalition representing more than 3.8 million individuals, brought creative workers from every corner of the creative economy together with a unified voice. Our bill passed out of the California Assembly, four committees in the State legislature, and several hundred individuals showed up at every single public hearing to say just how much a bill like AB-412 could help them. This issue is not going away. We are not going away. We are now moving to put our energy towards the next best steps.
Please take a moment to contact Assembly Member Rebecca Bauer-Kahan (916) 319-2016 and Assembly Member Ash Kalra (916) 319-2025 to thank them for their leadership in authoring and Co-Authoring this bill respectively.
Please express to them our request that they bring this bill back next session. Please tell everyone you know to contact them as well.
AB-412 simply affects too many people to simply be swept away into a corner and decided in the dark.
Sincerely, SAG•AFTRA CONCEPT ART ASSOCIATION
NAVA VOICE ACTORS AG Authors

TRANSPARENCY SHOULDN'T BE DECIDED IN THE DARK.
Big Tech wants AB 412 stopped behind closed doors. A bill affecting hundreds of thousands of California creatives deserves a public hearing.
Call Assembly Members Rebecca Bauer-Kahan at
(916)319-2016 and Ash Kalra at (916)319-2025
thanking them for their leadership in authoring this bill and requesting they bring AB 412 back next session.
AB 412 | A.I. Copyright Transparency

For the #BirdOfTheDay theme of #Contrast I managed to find both a dark bird against a light background and a light bird against a dark background in the same photo! Poking around in my archives is fun (Cormorant and Snowy Egret) #birds 🌿

Two birds perch in a bare tree. A cormorant is dark against the light sky while a white egret stands out against the dark tree trunk.

An alarming new report released by the United Nations this week revealed that the global temperature rise will exceed 1.5°C, likely within the next few years. But every 10th of a degree of warming we can prevent through immediate action makes a difference for our health, ocean and planet.

Graphic with quote "A future full of fish to catch, clean air to breathe and thriving coastal communities is still possible for our children, but we must make real investments now. Our ocean is a major part of the solution. Investing in clean energy, such as offshore wind, reducing emissions from shipping, and exploring carbon removal are critical to making that vision a reality.”
