Time to post the thing again: “if you are trying to make people stop doing something that isn’t hurting them, and isn’t hurting others, then you generally are doing a bad thing.” You are especially bad if the thing you want them to stop is ‘existing’ or ‘having the same rights that you have.’

There is like, a 10 second shot of Florence Pugh in the tail end of the "East of Eden" adaptation where she says a million lines of dialogue without a single word. An amazing performance in a whole nest of amazing performances.

In the middle is a green deer with a path of ribbon flowing from his feet into the empty air below.orange landscape of an abstracted tree and sunset. It's almost like a tower mixed with plants.Landscape of a tree in the forest, with air below its roots. It could also be a tower with many windows. Blues, teals and grays are the colors.A raven flying through a storm. The shapes are flowing, like flower petals all around. He has a pink ribbon in his beak.

If you need to explain to someone why the ‘Rogue AI’ framing is both wrong and harmful, actually blocking our view of what safety and responsibility requires in AI, this will help:

National Poetry Day, you say? It has to be this:
Kim Addonizio
TO THE WOMAN CRYING UNCONTROLLABLY
IN THE NEXT STALL
If you ever woke in your dress at 4 A.M. ever 
closed your legs to a man you loved opened 
them for one you didn't moved against 
a pillow in the dark stood miserably on a beach 
seaweed clinging to your ankles paid good money for a bad haircut backed away 
from a mirror that wanted to kill you bled 
into the back seat for lack of a tampon 
if you swam across a river under rain sang 
using a dildo for a microphone stayed up to watch the moon eat the sun entire 
ripped out the stitches in your heart 
because why not if you think nothing & no one can / listen I love you joy is comingTattoo on my arm that reads “listen I love you joy is coming”

Raccoon Greetings for Raccoon Appreciation Day! This is a portrait of a former neighbour who showed up at my back door like this, to enquire as to where I had moved the compost bin. So I took his photo and made a print.

CRAB: Before Coffee: Crabby.

PANEL 2: The same scene.
CRAB: After coffee: STILL CRABBY.

PANEL 3: The same scene, the crab stares at the viewer.

PANEL 4: The crab turns to the side, thoughtfully.
CRAB: …but better able to articulate why.

I know we’re all tired of being on Zoom, but some important Zoom etiquette reminders:

- everyone wants to see your cat

- don’t just say “my cat is here,” hold your cat up to the camera so we can see it

- when your cat is on camera, either say “cat” or type “cat” in the chat
