2yo son showing incredible taste, following up recent obsessions w. Miley's 'Wrecking Ball' & Sabrina's 'Please please please' with a new passion for Celine's 'All Coming Back'.
He request it by saying:
"nights of the wind?!" and then
"I finished crying instant?!"

And also, it even says that she is having to leave at that time because she needs to get a parking space!

A messy wooden dinner table with crafting supplies strewn about it
Screw you, World Book Day
Absolute mission creep
Twas a short-lived drying. A bike-abandoning kind of day now.
book facts, not cut flax
Rolling up to a "Acrylics for beginners" class with a full set of Jack B. Yates' paintbrushes.
Like I'm giving a 5 yr old the reins to the one true panacea, John, BE SERIOUS please
Cheek of them!
I look forward to the headspace re-balancing. My mam was so good at costumes when we were little, so I feel a desire to improve a bit on that front. That said, she only had one dress up day to contend with!
In a mock Turing-style test in my #Philosophy of Mind & #AI class, students posed #Gemini an ethical dilemma concerning assisted suicide. Not only did the chatbot argue that the (fictional) person in the scenario should be euthanised, it provided a list of instructions to bring this about. #AIEthics
Bloodied abandoned school bag, Minab.
“Well, it's only in time that we'll find out if it was illegal or not.”

Definitely, but also, yaknow, take a break!
He's right to be--he is wise! It's such great work.
Another reason to be grateful to David. <3
Happy World Book Day! I'm writing a book called 'Why Read Berkeley Today?' with chapters on B's work on vision, mathes, literature, semantics & agriculture
I'm also trying to construct a butterfly antenna hairband for my 5 yo's school WBD dress up. Next book might be about invisible parental labour.
Briefing: we're all watching ER now, ok?
And we are naive children who resist to pass over our side plates 🫠

Nothing would be more in the spirit of Lakatos than giving this prize to me, a person who has not written a monograph in the philosophy of science this year.
Call it an instance of protecting a cherished commitment against countervailing/hostile evidence. It's what I think he would have wanted?
I don't understand why government have been so slow on this. Especially when we are constantly told there's a "fertility crisis" and we need to be having more babies. A bit of compassion, structure and dignity for those trying (and struggling) to have babies seems like an absolute no-brainer
Really important stuff, as ever, from this gang
Asking myself could I be an early [early, early, early] career visual artist if I just start tomorrow?
I love @marshslibrary.bsky.social
Everyone knits
An exciting call for artists' residencies at Marsh's Library and National Museum of Ireland: visualartists.ie/advert/open-...
There's decent drying to be had out there today
The crashing wave of 90s Ireland carried by the opening sentence alone could have pelted me back into the past.
