i should clarify, when i write people doing bad things, it's because i am bad. they are me. more importantly, when you read about those bad things, they also become you. that's how story works. in fact, you are going to think about murder before this skeet ends. how's that feel, sicko.

You've seen fireworks that look like jellyfish, but what about a jellyfish that looks like fireworks? The E/V Nautilus filmed this rare Halitrephes maasi jellyfish glowing like a firework at a depth of 4,019 feet (1,225 meters) off the coast of Baja California, Mexico. (📷: Ocean Exploration Trust)

There are NOT machine-made clothes. If there were, your clothes would be made in the country you live in (where the customers are), or in China (where machines are cheap). They’re made in Bangladesh or India or Indonesia because that’s where the LABOUR is cheap. Your clothes are made by people.

Joyce Carol Oates says: “This is why Al-generated romance novels make perfect sense. Formulaic fiction doesn't need to be written by hand, so to speak; what difference does it make if a machine "writes" it? There are machine-made clothes & there are custom-made clothes. They appeal to
different consumers.“

happy pumpkin season! (art from 2014)

a black and white scratchboard drawing. Alternative poster for "It's the great pumpkin, Charlie brown"
It depicts a vast pumpkin patch in which Linus is standing holding a sign. He is looking up at the full moon. In front of the full moon we can see Snoopy in his aviator costume on his doghouse.
All the way in the distance, there is a house and we can see three children in halloween costumes coming out the door.

The Facial Expressions of Tethys by artist Julius von Bismarck. A suspended high-sea buoy that moves in real time. Sensors on a twin buoy out in the Atlantic Ocean send live satellite data to motors inside the museum. This makes the indoor buoy copy the exact, real-time movements of the ocean waves.

Many, many people become extremely wealthy entirely or in large part because they are related to someone else who is extremely wealthy. I think she is an outlier not because of the way she became rich but because of her choices, which many other people could also perfectly well make.

From the brilliant When There Are Wolves Again by E. J. Swift

We'll never know the truth about deep time, the multitude of ways that humans must have shaped our landscapes in the millennia before the Holocene. But we do know this. In the eleventh century, a self-proclaimed king broke up land that was shared by the many and parcelled it up for his friends. He gave them ordained rights of ownership, to preserve or destroy their new property as they saw fit, and so they proceeded. Take away kinship with the land, and with it the myriad forms (1/2)

(2/2) of living and working. Fence off the commons as wilderness and punish those who practise the old ways. Badge other animals as vermin. Set snares for foxes and hedgehogs. Poison carcasses for raptors. Shoot beavers and badgers, bum wild flowers and peat, make shooting estates and say it is all in the name of order, economy and tidiness, but there is no order and tidiness in the slaughter of grouse bred for killing, only blood. And whatever you do, you can't possibly let that old knowledge, that old kinship, those other, untidy, unprofitable ways of being survive, because if you do let them, maybe, just maybe, the violence of your ownership will show its teeth.

My contrarian take on Pluto and planethood is that this is an opportunity to get excited about the whole roster of Dwarf Planets, many of which are named after other mythological figures beyond the Greeks! That's neat! Spare some love for the other 8 dwarf planets!! en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dwarf_p...
