We are now at the point in the field, where we can compare with and there is plenty left to learn and understand.

On to : TESS has achieved (and exceeded) the goal of the measurement of 50 sub-Neptune masses.

Theory predicts water planets, but where are they? Evidence? Luque+ Palle showed observational evidence for systems.

But: needs to catch up with what we observe.

Ich war letzte Woche Freitag viel unterwegs: als erstes war ich auf unbekannten Planeten, dann habe ich mich auf dem Markt in Isphahan herumgetrieben. Richtig hektisch war es dann in einem Tempel, da ich dort Reingebeamt wurde. Abschließend war ich wieder in und konnte ein paar Runden Karten spielen. Somit sollte klar sein: ich habe gestern Abend wieder im gespielt! Um genau zu sein , , und . 1/6 @brettspiele

Music, art, words, acting, capturing images, videos, landscapes... will replace the things people do, to find languages to express things where known vocabulary fails, or to reality. What will one do when machines perfectly articulate everything that is felt?

A quotation from Oliver, Mary:

«
Still, what I want in my life
is to be willing
to be dazzled —
to cast aside the weight of facts

and maybe even
to float a little
above this difficult world.

I'm slowly coming to the realization that I don't really like being alive. I don't like getting up, I don't really like going to bed, and I don't like being awake. I don't mean to be vague, I lost my job, my dream job and so far I'm going to have to start applying to go back to fast food to find a new job so I can pay rent. I feel like my world was a lie and I have no idea what my current world is or means. Everything seems pointless and one day melds into the other endlessly, pointlessly. I hear the call of the void calling to me. Perhaps if I were to go I'd get to see my ex-wife again, or her mother, and I miss them a lot. So, I don't really want to or like being alive anymore.

I don't even know why I'm posting this.

Wow. Turns out we're not supposed to mulch-mow because we're killing the larvae. Come spring the young birds'll need those bugs. Other options seem do-able. Glad I don't have to deal w a yard(!)

Inktober 21&22
"Scratchy's Escape on the Chain"

This has been a tough weekend. Work, SiWC, oodles of schoolwork for the Master's degree, one of our cat's had an abscess, and I'm just generally exhausted. lol. Wheee.

So yesterday and today's work got folded into one.

I'm really happy with the outcome, though. I knew I wanted to do a squirrel as soon as I saw the prompt "Scratchy," and for some reason the chain came about as a really appropriate piece of all this.

A purpose of getting away is to escape the noise so that we can think. While it's not always possible to reach a quiet, isolated alpine lake, we are always free to turn off the TV, put away the phone, and spend time with our thoughts.

The theme of this is .

Sometimes the only course of action is to get away from those who are hurting you.

Take care of yourselves out there.

Escape

When we get out of the glass bottles of our own ego,
and when we escape like squirrels turning in the
cages of our personality
and get into the forests again,
we shall shiver with cold and fright
but things will happen to us
so that we don’t know ourselves.

Cool, unlying life will rush in,
and passion will make our bodies taut with power,
we shall stamp our feet with new power
and old things will fall down,
we shall laugh, and institutions will curl
up like burnt paper.
