Happy #TongueOutTuesday my friends, and let’s not forget a big shout out to our #TerrierTuesday pals too! 🧡 #SchnauzerGang #DogsOfBluesky

Hugo the black and grey Miniature Schnauzer is stood on a sandy path in the New Forest. He is looking up to the person taking the photo with his mouth open and tongue out. He looks really happy, or out of breath. Probably both.

The picture was taken this afternoon.

Getting real sick of slop midwives pleading for a 'respectful discussion' of AI as relates to the arts. Your use of AI to 'make art' is not respectful. It benefits from stolen art, destroys the planet, and does not make you an artist any more than someone driving 26.2 miles is a marathoner.

“Go into the arts. I’m not kidding. The arts are not a way to make a living. They are a very human way of making life more bearable. Practicing and art, no matter how well or badly, is a way to make your soul grow, for heaven’s sake. Sing in the shower. Dance to the radio. Tell stories. Write a poem to a friend, even a lousy poem. Do it as well as you possibly can. You will get an enormous reward. You will have created something”

So much “real men” this and “real men” that. Real men pick up their dog’s shit even in the middle of the night when no one’s looking. That’s it. Be decent. Always. Done. That’s a “real man.” What you wear or how you look or who you kiss doesn’t matter. Being decent matters.
