Let it have a little nap. Does wonders.

THIS. If you’re in central Glasgow tonight please close your windows; if you have to be out please wear the best mask you have available. If you can smell it, you’re at risk.

I made soup today. Just standard chicken soup. But it's the first soup I've made fully unsupervised and somehow both I and my kitchen are intact!

move slow and repair things

don’t forget to destroy your clocks tonight, walk away from your mortgage, just start driving, you’re free

Me: belting Florence + the Machine while doing chores

Morgan: "OH OH WE'RE SCREAMING FUCK YES!! father what are we screaming about"

the iron forest was caught in silence

This reminds me of something Toni Morrison wrote.

"you need to learn how to use gAI or you'll get left behind!"

counterpoint!

the absolute fastest way to render yourself unemployable is to build your skillset around a tool that does your thinking for you, that everyone has access to, and that one company can change or take away at any time

literally me

when you win a small concession you just get to keep yelling btw. one time a local official said to me "you people are never happy" and like: correct! it is not our job to be happy with compromise! it's our job to be annoying forever actually

An oldie

Over the past year, every single time one of the apps or services I use suddenly became less reliable and more buggy, I never have to look far for the "Claude is amazing and now writes most of my code" post for the devs involved.

a collage of three of my digital illustrations Left : Cover illustration for "Out of True" by Rien Gray. Two hands are holding onto a disintegrating sword, a dark forest in the background. Middle : A digital illustration of two people holding hands (actually dancing but it's not clear in the painting). One hand is pale and blueish, with long dark claws. The other hand is more human-like and veiny, with some deep scars further down the arm. There's also a frame made of gnarly branches, with the image of a crow, a snake and the crescent moon engraved in the wood. Right : A digital illustration of hands clutching a sword, surrounded by vegetation. One of the hands has a stylized dragon tattoo on the wrist.

the two phases of writing: (1) writing and (2) wandering aimlessly like an unmoored ghost and complaining about not writing

Why hasn’t the Great Eared Nightjar been made a starter Pokémon yet!? Like who doesn’t want a lil chocolate cake birb!? LOOK AT IT!!!!!!

When someone says „Scientists do not want you to know“ you can dismiss everything from there on. Scientists want you to know. They are desperate that you know. They can’t shut up about what they found out and want you to know.

My stomach is making the most haunted noises right now.

brainfarted for a sec and was like “TDOV, trans day of vengeance, of course”

now i want that reality instead

Nimuë, The Lady of the Lake warlock patron makes her deals with the truly desperate... but she promises the power of the deep, dark waters, and - to the truly worthy - Excalibur itself.

I'm 95% broth by volume right now.

the kind of wisdom one would hope to find in anxient tomes 🩸

Person doing 60 in a 25 mph passing me in a no passing zone on a back road blind drive with 1.5 lanes because of snow,

Actually you're the cunt here and deserved both my finger and honk. Hope nobody dies when that attitude catches up with you.

The company is like an evil vending machine, you put money in and it does what you want, unless somebody else puts more money in and tells it to stop.

I know it’s difficult right now, but I insist that you seek and enjoy beautiful things, even if it seems frivolous or irresponsible in the face of overwhelming horror. I want you to feed yourself artistically, spiritually, and literally, because you can’t Do The Work when you’re starving.

Regret to announce that we’ve reached Wrong Coat season. Every coat you wear from now til mid April will be The Wrong Coat for the weather

"I asked Chat GPT and -" ok, I asked the exhumed corpse of Pope Formosus during the Cadaver Synod and he went "... ... ..." and then his jaw fell off and it was still a better answer
