me and who
A painting from 1817 called Two Men By the Sea. It’s an oil painting by Caspar David Friedrich. It’s a moody painting of the sun setting over the sea, two men and the shoreline silhouetted in the mid & foreground.

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.

it is once again “can I save this bird who flew into my window” texts-from-friends season. please do me a favor and put dots on your big shiny windows and save your local wildlife rehabber’s number in your phone.

Deb Perelman has kept Smitten Kitchen going through the rise and fall of blogging, the pivot to newsletters, and the looming specter of AI. She has no intention of stopping.

It’s Day 70 and the guy chronicling his construction of a Carthaginian war elephant outfit to cross the Alps in has added a homunculus elephant driver centered on his own head It’s “supposed to distract the viewer from my real body by making me look like I’ve got a little one riding the elephant”

today’s little guy
detail from painting i saw today titled The Fall of the Rebel Angels by Pieter Bruegel the Elder. it shows a chunky little being falling through the air with a face like a surprised or outraged cartoon beaver. the little guy’s body looks like a cross between a puffer fish and a solitary testicle

Fitz Henry Lane, “Boston Harbor at Sunset” (1853). Various masted ships travel over the darkening waters of the harbor. A line of flaming clouds on the horizon over the distant city skyline gives way to the gold and deepening blue of the night sky.
