Perhaps starting today with Leonard Cohen's album "You Want It Darker" didn't quite set me up for a lighthearted kind of day.

Once on the subway I saw this guy who looked just like Danny Glover. We rode for several stops and I tried not to stare but then he got out at west 4th and his NYU jacket said "Glover" across the back. I never even got a selfie! Traumatized.

Open AI’s valuation is at $400 billion. They used about 190,000 books to train their plagiarism bot. Randomly saying 25% of their value comes from that stolen dataset, I think they owe the authors about $526,000 per stolen book.

Happy Memorial Day. Painting "Eating Figures (Quick Snack)," 1963 by Wayne Thiebaud.

Painting of a man and a woman sitting uncomfortably on two stools holding soft drinks and looking dubiously at hotdogs.

Thiebaud's "Eating Figures" appears to be an example of concealed theft from Degas' L'Absinthe. At first glance the two paintings have little in common.... despite being painted in radically different settings of 19th century Paris and 20th century Sacramento, these paintings share a defining mood in which women and men are overcome by a world that cannot be remedied with alcoholic drinks or revived with fast food.

Ever since I first had Covid in 2020, my sense of smell has been really off. Right now I'm smelling braised short ribs- this is a treat. Lots of times I smell burning cigarettes. Sometimes I smell rotting trash or sewage. I hate it.

Think By the Bay is an inclusive, post-secondary program at Cal State East Bay. This week, they celebrate their first graduating class—but the university wont' let them walk at commencement with their peers. Please sign the petition to support including TBTB grads in the ceremony! chng.it/zS2BDrvbtr

Happy May 1st. The value of your labor belongs to you and the actions of the state are best understood as as a coordinated effort to distract you from this. The state fears an organized and unified proletariat like it fears death and rightly so. Power to the workers and power to the people
