The air tastes like a blown fuse. That’s probably not good. But gosh it’s pretty. #Tucson

Clouds lit by sun shining through heavy dust, with sky going from orangish yellow at the horizon to stark blue overhead

Any time there's clouds at sunset in Tucson, it looks impressive.

(Extracted from a conversation) I admit I feel a little weird that after the IP colonialism, environmental devastation, and corrupt fascist reactionary oligarchic behavior of LLM providers, the showstopper for me is that generative AI is a boring word salad slot machine.

Got us a Rorschach test of a sky in Tucson today.

As carpool passenger it’s my job to take pictures of cool clouds.

Scattered rainbow over the prison complex. (Waiting in the parking lot until the HR window opens so I can get my work badge)

Fragmented rainbow and heavy clouds; beneath these you can see many parked cars, and barbed wire in the distance

Been spending way more time outside than any Pacific Northwest dude should. At least I’m grumpy and begrudging about it. But at least the Tucson sunrises are cool. Sort of a Mars Rover vibe.

Sunrise colors widely diffused by a sky thick with dust

If you’re good or particularly untidy you might get an evening visit from the javelina fairy

Jack has been sick and low energy for a while. Finally recovered enough to plan his revenge on Barry. Barry is starting to worry.

Gray sky without lightning. I didn't know they had those in Tucson.

Excellent view of Mount Nipple *(checks notes)* Thimble Peak

Tucson may shortly be experiencing weather. We aren't right now, but those mountains are, and those clouds are heading this way.

There are worse things to spend a few hours obsessing over on a Saturday afternoon. #Drawing #LineaSketch

Fluffy clouds hanging close over the mountains. Very pretty but also we're in "winter is coming" territory. Already had a couple frosty nights. #Tucson

A layer of clouds low enough that you can see blue sky above them, casting their shadow on desert mountains

Adding a little repeated detail to the #drawing every night is kind of a stim.

For social media guidelines, election night is same as any other disaster. Wait for facts. Do not accidentally or intentionally spread grifts, propaganda, confabulations, and panic attacks. And hey:

Show me (some of) your pet(s) and what they’re named after.

Moonrise. iPhone making it look a lot brighter out than it really is, but it’s also showing all the fun dust in the air.

Making album covers from pet pics, as one does.

Looks like an 80s or 90s alt band album cover. High contrast black and white photo of well-fed black chihuahua mix dogs looking hungry, stylized text reads “the pups” and “HOW SOON IS DINNER”

Another lovely sunrise in Tucson. Also, it’s 69F. Nice. Disorienting but nice.

Heard a loud bonk behind me. The bird clearly has a better understanding of glass than Jack does.

Made for a conversation on another site about #PKM setups, but amused myself enough to share it here.

Problem with walking the dogs early to beat the heat is that’s what all the other folks are doing too. Reactive little Bouncy Dog barking so much and so loud that my watch warned me about dangerous noise levels. Here’s a nice quiet sunrise.
