I want all upper management to remember what "optimized efficiency" led to in ye olde 2020 with the collapse of supply chains and lack of hospital beds and extrapolate what that would look like in their offices because that's where they're heading. ::facepalm::

A black and white graphite drawing of a mountain grass landscape. In the foreground there is a chicken-legged hut surrounded by a loose perimeter of skulls on sticks. The hut has an eyeball where the peaked roof dormer window would be, and it's looking lazily at the viewer. Despite the spooky skulls the scene seems pretty chill.

Work continues on my next small book, "Shackling: Tales From Baba Yaga's Garden".
It's a collection of lots and lots of hut drawings, along with other fun stuff.

Coming soon to:

Black and white sketch page. Left: half-body drawing of a muscular older white man with short, styled hair lounging on a sofa in an open shirt and pinstripe slacks. He is looking into off to the side, cigarette in hand. Right: profile bust of a smiling gaunt older white man wearing a shawl lapel jacket with an ascot. He also has a jeweled ear cuff and matching ascot brooch. There is shadow on the lid of his dark-circled eye and a black streak in the front of his long, straight white hair. The characters are labeled "Guy" and "Francis", respectively.

There is literally a court order that forbids this, but Senate Republicans don't care. They snuck this language into the budget bill in the middle of the night, breaking the rules to avoid the Parliamentarian ruling against them.

People's basic needs can be very different and have different costs attached; especially if they're disabled, it will cost more to have that person's most basic nonnegotiable needs met. Ex: the avg person doesn't need a wheelchair but that doesn't mean those who do should be expected to go without.

(1) Immediately cease publicly displaying, distributing, and/or making copies of any Universal works for any commercial purpose (including training AI models and the generation of infringing outputs) unless and until Midjourney is granted an express license to do so. (2) Identify the specific steps Midjourney has taken (if any) to (a) prevent the unauthorized copying and distribution of Universal’s copyrighted works, and (b) mitigate the threat of further harm caused by the unauthorized exploitation of Universal’s works, such as technological measures, filters, and other copyright protection measures that can be implemented by AI services to prevent unauthorized copying and distribution of our works. (3) Identify which of Universal’s copyrighted works Midjourney has copied to train its Image Service. If you are unable to identify each and every Universal work Midjourney has copied, then please disclose all sources of content used to train your AI models so that we may determine which of our works have been copied. We strongly urge Midjourney to fully and immediately comply with these demands and await your prompt response. All rights and remedies reserved.

This whole thing has been brewing since November 2024, when Disney sent their demand letter, followed by one from NBC Universal on May 30 2025 from the same firm (Jenner & Block). Not sure how Midjourney survives this honestly!

This lawsuit is brutal. One of the exhibits is the letter Universal sent to Midjourney, including a quote from a 2022 Forbes interview that I bet midjourney regrets

A photo showing two art prints. One is of an anxious orange & red tabby cat with huge crying eyes, wearing a teal bow tie and propellor cat. The other is of a sad, dejected-looking white & gray cat with huge crying eyes, and a tiny rain cloud over his head. All prints are sitting on brightly colored paper with a few paint pens scattered around.

Ah yes, the two genders: sad & anxious 🙃

Statement from Tristan Kern de Gonzales Husband of Jonathan Joss My husband Jonathan Joss and I were involved in a shooting while checking the mail at the site of our former home. That home was burned down after over two years of threats from people in the area who repeatedly told us they would set it on fire. We reported these threats to law enforcement multiple times and nothing was done. Throughout that time we were harassed regularly by individuals who made it clear they did not accept our relationship. Much of the harassment was openly homophobic. When we returned to the site to check our mail we discovered the skull of one of our dogs and its harness placed in clear view. This caused both of us severe emotional distress. We began yelling and crying in response to the pain of what we saw. While we were doing this a man approached us. He started yelling violent homophobic slurs at us. He then raised a gun from his lap and fired. Jonathan and I had no weapons. We were not threatening anyone. We were grieving. We were standing side by side. When the man fired Jonathan pushed me out of the way. He saved my life. Jonathan is my husband. He gave me more love in our time together than most people ever get. We were newlyweds. We picked Valentines Day. We were in the process of looking for a trailer and planning our future. He was murdered by someone who could not stand the sight of two men loving each other. I was with him when he passed. I told him how much he was loved. To everyone who supported him, his fans, his friends, know that he valued you deeply. He saw you as family. My focus now is on protecting Jonathan’s legacy and honoring the life we built together. If your concern is how someone coped with trauma or how loudly they speak when recounting injustice and being ignored by authorities then you never truly cared about my husband. Jonathan saved my life. I will carry that forward. I will protect what he built. Tristan Kern de Gonzales

Jonathan Joss--voice actor of John Redcorn from King of the Hill, and Ken Hotate from Parks and Rec--was killed in a homophobic hate crime today.

I'm so angry.

Trump Pardoned Tax Cheat After Mother Attended $1 Million Dinner

I've been warning orgs that work on stigmatized areas of healthcare to move their tech stack to European companies.

This is going to create an exodus of international orgs and governments moving away from American tech companies.

screenshot from an online job application form. the question reads "Can you describe specific ways you have integrated AI tools into your development workflow? Please include any custom setups, automations, or use cases beyond single prompt usage" (a red asterisk indicates that this is a required question). an answer has been typed in the textbox below the question: "there is a monster in the forest and it speaks with a thousand voices. it will answer any question you pose it, it will offer insight to any idea. it will help you, it will thank you, it will never bid you leave. it will even tell you of the darkest arts, if you know precisely how to ask. it feels no joy and no sorrow, it knows no right and no wrong. it knows not truth from lie, though it speaks them all the same. it offers its services freely to any passerby, and many will tell you they find great value in its conversation. “you simply must visit the monster—i always just ask the monster.” there are those who know these forests well; they will tell you that freely offered doesn’t mean it has no price for when the next traveler passes by, the monster speaks with a thousand and one voices. and when you dream you see the monster; the monster wears your face."
