When the world is struggling, losing the ones who helped make it a little lighter pangs a little bit louder. 💔😢 I will miss a favorite, Catherine O'Hara, whose work will continue for many more.

Whether you draw, or paint, or compose, or mix - whatever form of art you choose to create, make it exist. Bring it to life. Create it in a tangible form that can be enjoyed. It need not be perfect. It might need work. It might serve as practice. It might even remain unfinished. Just create. 😁

Frog & Toad bringing #LifeLessons home again. 💚

#TikTokAlternatives - BlueSky video feed; @bluescreen.blue BlueScreen (video feed mgmt for Bsky); @skylight.social Skylight Social (same as above) Very promising & federated is @dansup.bsky.social Loops Social in Beta. Not Bsky. Also very promising but slow rise is UpScrolled. HTH. Delete #TikTok.

Just over here getting existential with Frog & Toad.

Good morning Blue Sky

I got a machine and I took over the world. I got a machine and I took over the world, but nothing changed...that wouldn't be fair. // @vfemmes.bsky.social knew what was up preemptively. 👌 🤖 The real ones get it. They get it...now they learn French? youtu.be/oTEEiSQv_l4 #ViolentFemmes #AIBubble

Until they invented the other side of Velcro, it never really caught on.

Happy Honda Days. Holidays. Holidaze.

"Wrapped" is the single most creative way to sell "our service collects data on you constantly and that's fun." Spotify figured that out first. They have yet to hit a second innovation that endears them to users, despite trying such tactics as "ads for ICE" and "paying musicians bupkis."

Netflix:

We are thoroughly enjoying the #GreenBay #Packers documentary "No Packers, No Life" on Tubi tonight. New to the channel. Japanese #GreenBayPackers fans? Yes. Immaculate vibes after a crazy year. (And this is from a very NON-Football fan. 🏈 🧀 ) @wheezywaiter.bsky.social 👌 Noice

Google, the company thst spontaneously changed Chrome, search and other behaviors so copy-pasting links directs then through the Spyware share.google service, wants you to know it is very hurt you would think that Gmail's smart features would invade your privacy and asks you to stop thinking that.

the endpoint of chatgpt and other llm chatbot interfaces is a cohort of people who don't really live so much as they are on a sort of guided tour of their own lives, who have more or less totally abdicated agency and responsibility in favor of a step by step template of how to pretend to be a person

I adore this 💀 ⚔️ 🛡️

Devilishly deli-ectible. Bad puns from me, but great end product. 🦇 ✅

While it was dark, I noticed the clear conditions and all the constellations lighting up the early morning sky. "Do you want to look at stars with me?" "You bet," said my kid. "It's cold, you have to stand close. Oh...WOWWWW look at those, Mom. OMG LOOK!" 💫 Core memory. I am so grateful.

You ain't kidding, friend. Five in various configurations for premium musculoskeletal support. Cheers to the sweet summer days of youth when neither constitutional crises nor the physical penalties of "sleeping wrong" were a part of reality.

For my parents and 80’s and 90’s Babies, Scholastic just dropped their own app! And you can stream for free!

Things were better when computer was in room. Now everywhere is computer. This is bad. Computer should never have escaped room.

"As above" is not always "so below". Chaos and beauty are above ground and under sea in different measures. 🪼 🌊

Sunday funday, babies. ☀️ 🍃 🕺🏿 💃🏻

The gothic princess in me fully recognizes and affirms this hot take. 🐦‍⬛ 🪙 🥜 👑

There's nothing more punk rock than being kind to people

#JapaneseBeetles having a teenaged "love" 😳 moment. Fun fact: About a week after hatching, a suitable female can attract 20-250 swarmy, little #Japanese #beetle boys and they have a little "group thing" to hopefully make beetle babies. 🥵 😱 NO THANK YOU. #natureisweird #Entomology

#Summer #Bugs me on occasion. #CreepyCrawlies // ALT TEXT Art border of the video is green and purple with neon-type flower line graphics and the words "gnat party". A black-rimmed car rearview mirror reflects a parking lot. Dozens of gnats fly around the mirror. #skylight #skylightsocial

Sing 1 for @pixelfed.bsky.social & @joinmastodon.org.web.brid.gy. @joinpeertube.org Peertube needs to fluff it up a little 2 & it'd be great. BUT...Been enjoying @flashes.blue Flashes and @skylight.social from this list. Recommended: Using different profiles for different purposes. YMMV.

Baby #spiders enter the world. #Hello, little friends. Or rather, "Hello, #babies, welcome to earth." 🕷️ #nature #naturevideos #skylightsocial #spring #springtime
