Wasn't expecting the effect of something so human, hand made, immediate & fine

Scientists have discovered a tiny blue octopus lurking beneath the waters near the Galápagos Islands. About the size of a golf ball, the newly identified deep-sea species was found nearly 1,800 meters below the surface during an expedition in the Pacific Ocean.

Wishing Mahela Jayawardena a very happy birthday! #YouAreSomerset

Billy Mills has written an excellent brief review of my final chapbook, for which I'm very grateful. I've learned a lot from him over the years about my OWN WORK. (& he is not wrong, by the way, about the Pound influence. It's just that Hart Crane's epic background is a more basic motivation.)

Which is the bird that cries in the river? Which is the bird that calls in the night? It is the wild goose that cries in the river It is the peacock that calls in the night. -Uraon poem, version by W. G. Archer (from Kenneth Rexroth’s The Poetry of Pre-Literate Peoples, ca. 1975)

Uber’s COO has said that it’s getting “harder to justify” its AI costs because there was no way to show a link between AI spend and any meaningful increase in useful features. This is the first time I’ve seen a company say this directly. www.businessinsider.com/uber-coo-and...

‘A Meditation of Small Frogs’ by Charlotte Eichler, from Swimming Between Islands (@carcanet.bsky.social). @pollyrowena.bsky.social read this and thought of you!

Quite funny The electorate was wrong.

Mike Oldfield released his debut album “Tubular Bells” on this day in 1973. Oldfield was only 19 years of age when he recorded this, playing almost all the instruments. Thoughts? #MikeOldfield

I haven't been on here much recently, and I've been particularly remiss when it comes to sharing @davebonta.bsky.social and his ever excellent Pepys erasure poems, like this one: But then again, you could always just subscribe your self and do away with the middlebilly.

Happy birthday, Bob.
