Historical Marker Ahead @historicalmarker.bsky.social · 9h
Two markers are going up along Ohio’s Wyandot Removal Trail, marking a forced march of 600 tribal members from northern Ohio to an Ohio River steamship, on their way to Oklahoma. Markers note spectators lined the route and stole from the Wyandot as they walked. www.wvxu.org/local-news/2...

Wyandot Removal Trail markers unveiled in Lebanon, North Bend
The trail includes 13 markers from Upper Sandusky to Cincinnati, telling the story of the last tribe to be removed from Ohio. The two newest markers are in Lebanon and North Bend.

October was showing off today. 🌳🌱
Persimmon tree on the left, loaded with fruit. The sky is the perfect shade of blue.View from the point of the hill, which is way easier to get to now that the hay is cut. The creek that was flooded not long ago is way down there somewhere. More perfect clear sky.Eastern red cedar on the left. Walking path cut through the tall grass in an unmowed section.You can just see the barns and the pond across the way. And if you zoom wayyyy in, you can also see some traffic on US 35.

One of these days I’ll drive down to the farm and the deer will be conversing on the porch swing
Three deer snacking fearlessly on whatever acorns the squirrels missed. This shit did not happen when my parents had a dog 😭

If you do vandalism, it must be bilingual. It's the law.
A sign bolted to a fence beside water, which used to say, in black, "NO FISHING" and below it, in red, "NO PESCAR," has been vandalized with colored markers to read "NO KISSING" and "NO BESAR."

George Saunders on using AI: "Writing is the most precious way one person can communicate their essence to another person. I’ve spent a lifetime trying to get better at making myself present in my writing. Why would I want to sacrifice even one iota of that?"
Have you spent time trying to write or revise with AI? Is there an experiment that would be interesting enough to try?

I have not. Not for a second. To me, this whole idea of using AI to write is . . . anathema. A thing to be most radically avoided.

Writing is the most precious way one person can communicate their essence to another person. I’ve spent a lifetime trying to get better at making myself present in my writing. Why would I want to sacrifice even one iota of that? Not even in an email and certainly not in a short story or novel.Who are we ceding our authority to, exactly, when we let AI write for us? And why? Why surrender our agency (that amazing ability we have to reach across time and space, with our strange, idiosyncratic phenomenon, and land within the sensibility of another human being) to something that, by its very design, pushes the individual sensibility aside? And in the name of . . . what, exactly? Ease, I guess? Efficiency? The person who chooses to write with AI has also sacrificed, from the start, the opportunity of experiencing difficulty, of struggling to say what he wants to say, of making himself evident in his prose, of trying to find out what he believes. By this, he sacrifices a chance to know himself and his mind better. To me, that’s a shame. And it’s dangerous, because, as we are now finding out, it affects the brain and lessens our capabilities. Thanks, but no thanks, get thee behind me, etc.

The last time the Reds successfully converted a save opportunity in the postseason was Game 2 of the 1995 NLDS against the Dodgers. Brett Butler, who turns 70 in 8 months, played in that game.
