Pluto is a planet. I'm an artist, photographer, and enterprise software engineer out of PHL ✈️ . I post white noise, my own photos, generative AI experiments, and blog spam, but mostly I boost art and photography.

@AmiW I remain skeptical. Where are her feet?

@AmiW I don't know. It feels fake. Even if it's real and legit, it still feels fake like I'm being tricked, and that's a different problem. Here's Dorothea Lange. Every bit of it is genius and earnest, even when it's staged. https://mastodon.ozioso.online/@DorotheaLange

@AmiW I get it. I'm an artist trapped in a STEM world. I'm always pushing for art to be perfect.

I've learned that the easiest way for me to create art is to start by sitting in a chair daily for any length of time with a pencil or pen in hand and actually make art.

The first time I did this, I set a goal of doing so for 100 days. It extended well past that. I later started creating a calendar in my bullet journal where I could draw something small daily -- even if it was just a doodle. Working on getting back into this habit.

The Border theme, coupled with the Style Settings plugin, is so lovely. You can customize the look and feel quickly without hunting for deeply nested selectors in the inspector to use in custom CSS snippets. And the seamless embed option is excellent if you're like me and use transcludes everywhere. Great work, Akifyss, and co.!

I am looking for recommendations of high-quality artists, museums, galleries, and art bots specializing in fine art to follow on Mastodon. Any suggestions aside from the firehose of following hashtags wholesale?

We talk about achievement. About goals. Setting them. Reaching them. About getting somewhere, becoming something. But what happens the morning after? What happens the next day? After the parade, the party. After they sweep the confetti away. What happens when the big moment fades? Maybe it's never been greatness we were after, but a baseline standard of enoughness brought to our days.

Every time I'm confronted with the "Sign-in with Google" modal, I have to wonder what UX will come up with next in their efforts to make the internet an ever more joyless and annoying place. In retrospect, we should have fought them on Material Design. Even unto the bitter end.
