Fun!
Karl Weick (organizational psychologist, foundational work on sensemaking) had a great refrain: βHow can I know what I think until I see what I say?β I often think about this in relation to how AI can interfere w/ thinking by substituting its words for ours. This experimental study offers evidence.

Whiskers Wednesday
add-on
Lefty (cat) jumped on my desk, grabbed the pareidolia creature potato chip out of the bowl and ran to the kitchen to consume it.
Potato chip in which I perceive a two creatures one large and one tiny. The larger creature's face in profile facing to the left of the frame. A wide open mouth on the large creature is either talking to, or preparing to eat, the tiny creature on the left. Pareidolia: Seeing meaningful patterns in randomness.
Wacky Wednesday

I've been struggling with how to express my dismay at the war coverage by our top newsrooms, and how it dances around the central fact that Trump is deranged and unfit to command. I finally wrote something. Please read it. presswatchers.org/2026/03/the-...

Thank you to thermogenesis. And check out the lovely green moss in the background.

Perfect timeline order.
Mean girl in action. LOL

Sorry for your loss.
It is nice to have signs of spring.

Now for something completely different... an afternoon walk.
Not feeling great, but I wanted to enjoy the warm (54Β°F/12Β°C) day. Made it through the melting 3 foot snow drift and down the flooded trails and overflowing brooklet into the forest. Nice, even with too short boots full of water.
Seems sad to see a neighborhood go like that. Amazing what the market supports.

Iranβs people were facing a horrible shortage of water before the war began. If we are destroying desalination plants and setting fire to Teheran we are committing unfathomable crimes.

Heavy ground fog from the snow. It seems the latest iPhone iOS version camera will no longer allow me to capture such things. Temp of 34Β°F / 1Β°C
I lack the words to capture it, but ... it's just endlessly remarkable to me that so many people in our society have chosen trans kis -- TRANS KIDS, the smallest, least significant, most vulnerable demographic slice you could possibly pick -- as a repository for all their fears & insecurities.

There have been stressful interactions at work recently and I needed this reminder. Breathe and remember I can only control myself.
Because sometimes, people might come into a clinic defensive, scared, upset, or emotional. The best part of the person isnβt gonna come out the first day. But if I do my part and help them along, I get an opportunity to see the best part of the person as time goes by."

The last time I was around Tom, he said, 'Donβt treat them like they are. Treat them the way youβd like them to be.' At the time, I didnβt know whether he was talking about horses or people. Later, I realized that he was talking about both. I remind myself of that from time to time.

"Tom Dorrance once said, 'You can learn anything with these three words β observe, remember, and compare.' He said that beyond that, learn to adjust to fit the situation. That always meant so much to me.
