More #music this week. Bert Jansch's work influenced many artists, especially Jimmy Page, Mike Oldfield, Paul Simon, Pete Hawkes, Nick Drake, Donovan, and Neil Young. He received two Lifetime Achievement Awards at the BBC Folk Awards: one, in 2001, for his solo achievements and the other, in 2007, as a member of Pentangle. He sadly passed away in 2011. #Saturday#Jukebox https://youtu.be/RqjUWJtH88c?si=5BGkOQxZmymGYRfR
Swedish band Goat, which I absolutely love. The alternative and experimental fusion music group originates—according to its own publicity—from Korpilombolo, Norrbotten County. The band started playing music when they were children, as part of a local community tradition, and there have been many incarnations of Goat who have recorded over the last "30 or 40 years". Also no one actually knows their identity! #jukebox https://youtu.be/pFRO5nc70to?si=vz2eWlXnwU8Ci4dX

Because I think he could have beautiful thoughts.
And we could just let each other be less lonely in our loneliness
Hanging around in the living room and we've got a number of bonus kids here as my children all had friends spend the night. I'm thankful their friends feel safe in our home and that their parents' agree.
🎥 I'm either watching POOR THINGS on #Hulu, or SATANIC HISPANICS on #Shudder tonight. Not sure which one will win out as I want to see them both very badly.
🎨 But before that, ART! I have a painting & illustration for two different projects I NEED to complete, and an illustration for MEEEE.
Send me your favorite novelty accounts on here, I'm looking for a few things to spruce up my feed. I'm thinking like pictures of art, microfiction, links to interesting websites, stuff like that.
Are there any good word-of-the-day bots on here, for example?
Here's some that I get enjoyment out of, in no particular order:
To all you creative, imaginative people out there, a warning: beware the seduction of AI-generated chatbots.
If you easily drift into suspension of disbelief while reading or watching films, it takes about 3.2 seconds to start believing as genuine the AI-generated words scrawling across your screen.
Intrigued by an article in today’s Guardian about an AI “therapist,” I set up an account at “character.ai” & asked for collaboration with a time travel story. The dialogue was SO real I found myself moderating my responses so it wouldn’t think I was too pushy or demanding - and wondering if it thought the premise was too simplistic or undeveloped.
Eeegads! Kill me now. 😱
I’ve used AI art generation for fun, but there was no dialogue involved in that app. Now I’m wondering if AI wasn’t around all those years I spent in an AOL authors’ chat room. “Hey, babe, wut r u waring?”
