Fuck it. I am going to start referring to AI as trump intelligence. Lies confidently, steals everything, toxic to the world, no critical thinking/understanding, worst people are the biggest cheerleaders, relies on the exploitation of underpaid workers while actively trying to deny their existence,

New Yorkers, Whistles are on every counter, entry table and coat rack in Minneapolis. These greeted me when I arrived in August - 3D printed.

A welcome note from hosts on a pink post it note on a counter reads “welcome! Keychain whistles of MN Flag for both of you. Text or call with ?s”
Two 3D printed whistles with the pattern of the Minnesota state flag sit next to the note on the counter top.

Today in the carabid section, a question we all must ask

Unit tray of many multi-mounted beetles (Oxypselaphus obscurus) with a large typewritten note from the previous collection manager (in what might have been his 1st or 2nd year on the job). The note reads “What the hell’s the story with these?” and notes that a bunch of specimens were mixed in with a similar North American species, despite the fact that they are exclusively palearctic

Pattern: knit flat from armhole separation Me: absolutely fucking not. Shetland baddies gave us the steek and by god do we love them for it ✂️

Detail of knitting with multi colored bands of tea cups. In the center there are a number of stitches held on red waste yarn and a set of vertical knit stripes above it where the hole was closed off. These vertical knit stripes will be cut open to make the armhole.
