taking the correct position on genocide is so easy. it’s so fucking easy. in a morally grey world, it is actually one of the clearest cut examples of right and wrong that we have. the bar is buried under Satan’s asshole and people I admire continue to trip the fuck over it

Night eyes 😎 Finally got proper pictures of this amazing phenomenon! Mantises change their eye color (and light sensitivity) at night by transporting pigments from the surface of each compound eye unit toward the deeper eye region. Same female Tenodera sinensis, two different times. #bugsky

it’s not my intention to out or shame anybody, only to confirm the data for the public good: with the exceptions of Nicole and me, everyone in our traveling party to Spain came home with covid. Nicole and I masked on planes and in crowded areas and did not get sick. please mask.

If you want to build community, don’t use gen AI. Instead of asking ChatGPT ask your librarian, friend, neighbor or your long distant cousin twice removed. Put your human noggin together and create! Human connection can be more inconvenient and time-consuming but you end up with so much more.

I then spent over an hour with my nieces and nephews brainstorming title ideas for my art and theirs. The hour was full of delighted giggles, snacks and art and science questions answered. That hour didn’t just result with our art having titles. It gave us human connection.

SoundOfTheForest @soundoftheforest.bsky.social · 02/08/2026

I didn’t asked them because I just wanted to have title ideas given to me. I asked them as a form of human connection. I wanted to spend time with a friend. I wanted to experience the creative process with another human and build community. They missed out on that.

I asked a friend if they wanted to help brainstorm title ideas for my paintings. They stated they just use chatGPT to come up with their titles. They were quite sheepish admitting this because they know my thoughts on the subject.

I have no idea if generative AI was used to write that script but one of the consequences of him choosing to use generative AI is it discredits his previous work. I’m happy that he made a statement stating that he will be making changes, but he has lost my respect.
