Inktober 2026 - Day 2 - "Relic" - Timelapse You'll see that initially I was going to do a robotic skull of some sort and set the scene in a dystopian, possibly human-less the future where the "relic" was AI... Yeah. Sometimes I just need to draw and not think so much.

The first anime you bought on VHS/DVD... not entirely sure really. Vampire Hunter D is the first that came to mind, but I come from an era when buying anime was either a 48th generation bootleg or a well-worn VHS that the local video rental store was clearing out.

NFC West: Rams coach says NFL agrees refs erred on PI that swung Week 3 loss - Seattle Sports
The call negated an interception and led to a game-winning Giants TD in the Rams' 30-26 loss on Sunday.

two of my neighbors have put campaign signs in the their yards. two separate races. both the democratic candidate. here in TN. where i'm pretty sure there are white nationalist cells just around the corner. this does change my "if shit really goes south" calculation. 🤔

i'm finally starting season 3 of Westworld because it seems more relevant now than it did 5 years ago. but i'm going to need a refresher on season 2.

thing that annoys me most about artificial intelligence being "renamed" to super intelligence is that the two phrases mean *fundamentally* different things. the first speaks to origin while the second speaks to quality. and it's quality is only "super" when compared against "maga intelligence."

way too many cycles being devoted to this "bring iced coffee to an interview" thing. just like everything else, it's being distilled down to two extremes and all nuance is tossed out the window. only 3 questions really matter. 1. is the coffee good? 2. where did they get it? 3. how do i get there?
