“Bongo” Ballpoint pen, pencil, watercolor, acrylic paint, and a little colored pencil.

Our man is in trouble this time, reader. Art supplies are scattered around a painting of an abstract cityscape. On the canvas we see a man in a telephone booth making a frantic call to his cat, Bongo. In the foreground, an answering machine is taking his voicemail, [Leave a message at the beep] --- “Bongo, Daddy got stuck in the painting. Go get help, Bongo.” Bongo stands at the base of the easel looking at the phone. Her tail in the air and ears perked up. Whether she’ll be able to help is open to interpretation.

Artist’s note: One of my favorites from the Spooky Pants book. I was playing around with the idea of a painting coming to life (like that guy in Ghostbusters 2) and kind of fumbled my way into this version. I really draw a lot of corded phones. I won’t stop.

I wonder if the ubiquity of automatic skin smoothing in photos these days makes it harder to catch skin cancer. Is this mole new or have I just been gaslit by technology into doubting my own senses?

Omg, how have I never seen Tifinagh script before?! It's a traditional orthography of the Berber languages, and its *gorgeous*...each character feels precise and compelling, and there is so much variety in the motifs.
A table of the characters of the Tifinagh script. It's, uh, kind of hard to describe. A lot of straight-lines, geometric configurations of dots, and perfect circles. It feels runic at times, and at other times it feels completely novel to my western sensibilities.

Someone just posted this picture I didn’t know was taken of our sweaty group hug at the end of Wakey’s Pride scrim and it sums up what I love about this sport.

More than anything, this illustrates a way that math can fail to capture real value. Anyone who has taken a probability course can compute "expected value" and smile smugly (some people make a career out of it), but that assumes that all dollars are equally valuable.

Overall, I can't say that I liked Nolan's The Odyssey BUT I did laugh out loud at how many times the screenwriter showed off that he had read the wikipedia article about the Bronze Age Collapse. I'm gonna be laughing for days at Matt Damon solemnly saying "Our Age of Bronze is collapsing"

Ok, this is very funny. AI generated a marketing campaign for Starbucks which was themed around a brutal anti-democracy massacre in the 80s, and no human stopped it. One of the slogans directly referenced the death of a student by torture! www.theguardian.com/world/2026/j...

Sometimes when I tune everything out and just skate, everything clicks into place and I feel like "ohh, this is what my body is meant to do". Making it do chores, or socializing, or emails, or threat assessment...of course that never works right. Body is machine that turns music into skating.

Prediction markets are such a vivid synecdoche for the illness of late capitalism. Not only do they lay bare the rampant gambling addictions at the heart of the tech and finance worlds, but the insider trading is so obvious that anyone participating must be assuming there's a greater fool to scam.

Is there a worse word in the English language than "eighth"? Spoken, it ends in a strangled tetragraph, as if garroted midword. Typed, it alternates hands on off-home keystrokes, practically guaranteeing a typo.
