can't imagine that future historians will fail to notice the political effect of tech developments allowing large scale buying and selling of human attention. not optimistic about the effects on politics writ large, but worth thinking about focus, especially for organizers

Psst: Project 2025 is terrifying for a lot of reasons but also because on page 5 it calls for teachers and librarians who grant access to books that are maligned as pornography (which just means anything LGBTQ) to be registered as sex offenders. Pass it on.

if you’re trying to engage with politically disconnected people about project 2025, identify a specific part that you think will resonate with them. i just told my friend who’s a public school teacher about the plan to abolish the department of education and that got her hooked.

I wish there was a way to demystify drawing for non-artists - there's nothing more to it that putting in the hours, learning technique, and most of all, just drawing a lot - I've always believed that anyone can learn how to draw if they're willing to make the time investment

Style is nothing but the mistakes you make consistently

Outside is so good

Washed my hands with some good soap and now they smell great. Also went outside, I feel better mentally today than yesterday highly recommend

it's important for outlets to explain that when we talk about AI "posing a threat to humanity," we're talking about the rushed implementation of half-cooked automation killing your grandma with an auto-rejection of her medicare claims, not sentient industrialized planet-scouring murderbots (for now)

UnitedHealth uses AI model with 90% error rate to deny care, lawsuit allegesarstechnica.com For the largest health insurer in the US, AI's error rate is like a feature, not a bug.

Putting together things for Monday. I'm so excited to get these brushes into other people's hands! I love making brushes for myself but they really surprise me when other people play with them. but also look at all these strokes :)

I'm selling my beloved Roland SVC350 vocoder in order to pay bills. It's on eBay for £1500. But they'll rob me of £200+ so hit me up if you're minted, trustworthy, and in the market for a legendary bit of vintage gear.
