Researchers have discovered that the more you tell yourself what to do via rainbow-coloured blocks of “focus time”, the more your brain will rebel and restrict you to playing House Flipper until your eyes bleed.

the difference between fine art and illustration is nothing more than the economic class of the artist making it and that of their patrons.

So ... we have the start of cockroaches that are spreading from another apartment. I have a bunch of cleaning to do, and I have to be out of the apartment Thursday.

Not for the first time in my life, and likely not the last, did I have to put on a new pad in a back alley so that maybe I could get home without leaving a trail of blood.
No public washrooms, yo.

“I had that dream again.
The one where I could have sworn I felt the wind
as it shifted off the water.
The sun began to warm the distant slopes
and light the tops of nearby trees.
I had that dream again,
where I felt completely free.”

Including these adorable beaded earrings in orange and purple. Whenever we'd ask my mom what colour something was, she'd say "purple with orange polka dots" As a result, this colour combo is my fave!

I made a spear inspired by the snaking fog that I see coming down the river valley in the fall mornings we call The Dragon. Made with steel that was once equipment that farmed these valleys, wood that grew here as well, and wax that keeps it rust free is from the bees here too.

On this day of labor
remember:
when they tell you
(and they will tell you)
that Covid
is not a labor issue,
ask them if people
catch Covid at work,
ask them if people
have to work while sick,
and when they say yes,
tell them that’s why
Covid is a labor issue.

Sometimes I think I should try education again. And then I remember how badly it went last time, and just sort of multiply it with new bullshit like AI and... realize there's no hope.

Once again, I am reminded how right on red needs to be stopped. It isn't "turn right on red, if it is clear." It is just "act like you have right of way on red."
Why yes, I might have had a near hit today, as well as having to wait two cycles at a crossing light because the cars would not stop.
