One of several projects I have going… awnings for my tiny windows to block the brutal sunshine in the summer! I’ve gathered the fabric, hooks and all, hand-sewing rather than using the machine. My plan is to make 4 total. I assembled TP rolls to create “rods” and mocked up a paper POC. First fabric shade is finished and I’m working on the 2nd. Mounting each to the house with French cleats is next. It’s been a super fun process!

The finished proof of concept made out of white craft paper, mounted on a wooden frame with black hooks. I assembled the frame to get the measurements and hang pattern worked out.
The finished fabric real-deal awning, with a blue and lime green fish pattern on white, with the mock TP-roll rods, mounted on the awning frame. It was super windy that day so the awning is billowing up in the center.

So I'm reading Blood in the machine and actually think being called a Luddite is the highest complement you can give someone today. I encourage everyone to read Blood in the Machine. Luddites weren't technophobes. https://www.hachettebookgroup.com/titles/brian-merchant/blood-in-the-machine/9780316487740/?lens=little-brown #Tech #Technology #Books @bookstodon

So many feels for the #ZilloBeast. 😭 Gets me every time. I’m sure the level of hatred I feel for #ChancellorPalpatine cannot be healthy. #TCW #TheCloneWars #S2E19 #StarWars

Somebody made a cover of Running Up That Hill by Kate Bush in Early Middle English.

I finally opened my online store! It's full of fun artwork that celebrates the #IslandLife with a slight nod to #JimmyBuffett. It's not perfect, but it's time to let go & share.

To me, “infinite universes” of fiction like #StarWars, and #Marvel etc. feel unsatisfying in the same way that LLMs do. They are systems which churn out new threads of narrative in vaguely the same style but always without any further substance than the original idea. That’s not say there’s not great artistry and craft in the individual efforts of those involved, but the overall system feels vacuous in the same way that asking #ChatGPT to continually write space operas would.
