Our Knitted Green Man made for our May Day celebrations is now on public display in our Chapel Gallery. He will eventually live in the actual museum, but we especially wanted all those who made and sent leaves to us to see the final glorious result.

Honestly, the longer this sits with me, the angrier I get with all those "vibecession" articles

I read this as "Time War Alliance " initially and was pretty interested.

I would be remiss not to point out that "Tricking Milli Vanilli into performing a concert for a dictator" is LITERALLY a storyline from the 1990s 'Super Mario Bros 3' cartoon 🙃

Oh, do you remember when local ISPs would send you swag? I think I had branded cups from mine in Seattle (or SF?). That ruled.

Instead of paying taxes, or improving the lives of his employees, Bezos is literally lighting towers of money on fire.

“vibecession”

Thanks for watching my first extended conversation with Rep Lauren Boebert since 2019. I think all of us have changed in the last 7 years. In some ways, Boebert is the same person. But she's also taken strong stands and developed skills I would not have predicted.

is it too much to ask that corporations have at least one person working there that actually understands and enjoys the content they own and has some pride in getting things right

Learned recently there's a whole subculture of halal BBQ joints in texas, originally because Texas's quite-large Muslim population couldn't eat at ones that also prepared pork, but now it's a whole thriving culinary niche. Real "glorious American melting pot" stuff

We moved spaceflight into the private sector and suddenly all the rockets are like 30% more explosive. Kinda seems like punting to the private sector isn't a fiscal cure-all.

If full meal prep is too overwhelming a lifestyle to get into, try just protein prep. Make a big batch of carnitas, or braised beef, meatballs, shredded chicken and put it in portions in the freezer. Now you have your main filling for tacos, or rice bowls, or salads, or pasta topping.

Repeating my old Twitter adage: Is it "discourse" or is it one very loud wrong man we can all block?

ICE broke the finger of a Reuters photojournalist today. After two days of drenching people in pepper spray, people have been adding more and more layers of protection, rendering the spray useless and leading to ICE using their short metal batons that they swing with full force.

In the AI/anti-AI discourse, I haven’t seen enough treatment of the problem of *feeling*. A silicon-based ‘intelligence’ can’t *feel* as a human does: it can simulate touch, but not experience touch; it can calculate a response to visual stimuli, but it can’t *see*.

This ICE flight just landed in Kenya. Migrants onboard will have been shackled for at least 22 hours.

90% of those held at Delaney Hall have no criminal history. People detained at Delaney Hall were being paid $1/day to work — then the facility suspended that pay while keeping up demand for the work. Trump’s mass deportation machine is not about crime reduction. It is about prison labor camps.

Sometimes the BEST dialogue is NO dialogue. The silence in the moment between characters can speak volumes. #screenwriting

Paramount+ wanted to use the image on the left as a poster for the wrath of Khan, so they used everyone's least favorite technology to generate the rest of the image.

#Quiltsky Here's my finished Welcome Spring panel. The background quilting is my feeble attempt at Karlee Porter's graffiti quilting. I'm pleased that the dragonflies turned out so well. I printed them and traced them onto golden threads quilting paper.

Patience is what makes the difference. Kyle doesn't rush to run through a question checklist, but instead exhausts a line of inquiry to get as close to the truth as the subject will let him. So much is said in that depth.

You mistake; the musician likes me not.

The money for the rush job is coming from the National Park service funds. Read that sentence several times if your blood pressure is too low.

I feel like this is a perspective that has not penetrated the bubble in my Bluesky feed. Read the thread, then read the piece. Life is… messy.

First of all, we all have seen children and pregnant mothers being detained and fed maggot food and dirty water. And second of all, food is a human right even for murderers rapists and pedophiles. And third of all, not one detained person has been tried and convicted of murder by immigration judge.

Corruption in the place!

The defining principle of our society is that people who were lucky during the dot com boom or Web 2.0 should have vast and ever-growing individual power over the entire world. The only acceptable check on their power is their squabbles with each other.

"A company is ultimately for the benefit of its shareholders. Its goal is not to maximize or maintain employment, it’s to make profits." I, for one, appreciate it when execs are straightforward like this. respawnfirst.com/google-vp-on...
