This is your occasional reminder that generative "AI" in particular could have been developed on public domain materials and/or licensed and compensated works but the major players intentionally, methodically and systemically chose to steal labor from working creative folks instead

Pen and watercolor

A pack of witches dance around a fire circle summoning a massive demon in the flames. One of our witches is down though, reader. She lets her sisters know that she won’t be continuing the circle. “Gotta sit this one out, sisters,” she says. “Rolled my ankle.”

I played around with adding a lot of detail to this scene (more shadows, trees in the background, etc.) I think the simpler version works but I’m not sure how I feel about the fire demon drawing. I think I like it. Was having trouble getting the composition of the scene set up with a text bubble in the bottom right. I do like the purple against the black dresses and little boots.

The marbled polecat, native to parts of Europe and Asia, gets its name from the irregular dark brown and yellowish patches on its backside. Litter sizes range from 4-8 cubs, and only female marbled polecats care for their young.

The marbled polecat (Vormela peregusna) looks like a ferret dressing up as a cheetah for Halloween. They're native to a semi-desert grassland strip from Eastern Europe to Central Asia. Like a skunk, they can spray a foul-smelling fluid from anal glands. Let's talk about them. (📷: Petra Prager)

A marbled polecat photo from Petra Prager. It looks almost exactly like a ferret, but the arched back is sort of orange with brown dots on it similar to a cheetah, and the head has a white stripe that reminds me of a skunk, with a long floofy tail and dark limbs. This one looks alert and at rest.

I think when we hem and haw about people going no-contact with their families and what it says about society, what we're often doing is revealing our own discomfort with seeing others starting to pull blocks out of the Jenga tower of Empire and refusing to suffer Just Because.

There are reasons other than net take-home pay that generations of American parents steered their kids toward college. I don't see how "go into construction!" is helpful unless paired with more robust worker protections and a true safety net, especially in right to work states.

Toshirō Mifune in Rashōmon (1950)

$Captured in a piercing, sun-drenched close-up, Toshirō Mifune delivers a visceral portrait of raw physical intensity as the volatile bandit Tajōmaru in Akira Kurosawa’s cinematic masterpiece Rashomon (1950). Sweat glistens across his brow and cheekbones beneath the oppressive heat, while his narrowed, predatory gaze and furrowed brow radiate an unpredictable mixture of suspicion, pride, and feral defiance. Bound in a coarse, dark cloth head-wrap over disheveled hair, Mifune's weathered features and dark stubble reflect the untamed existence of an outlaw living on the margins of society. The photograph evokes a palpable sensory environment: the stifling, humid heaviness of the ancient forest, the relentless drone of summer cicadas echoing through the canopy, the abrasive scrape of rough-woven hemp against dust-streaked skin, and the blinding glint of high-noon sunlight breaking through the leaves. As the film that catapulted post-war Japanese cinema onto the global stage, Rashomon redefined narrative storytelling through its revolutionary exploration of subjective memory, human vanity, and moral ambiguity. Adapted from Ryūnosuke Akutagawa’s short stories "In a Grove" (Yabu no Naka) and "Rashōmon," the plot constructs four conflicting testimonies surrounding a single violent encounter in the woods. Mifune’s landmark performance turned the traditional samurai-era villain into a kinetic, animalistic force, seamlessly fusing explosive physical theatricality with deep psychological insecurity. Collaborating with visionary cinematographer Kazuo Miyagawa, Kurosawa famously used angled mirrors inside the dense forest set to bounce harsh, natural sunlight directly onto the actors' faces, creating a striking visual rhythm that visually manifests the fractured, elusive nature of truth.$

Here’s the study link. This study upended the idea that campus rape is perpetrated by a small group of sociopaths. In all reality, most rapists are just ordinary men who hold sexist views, hang out with other men who hold sexist views, and seek power and status.
