‘Cat People’ (1942) 🎬 🐈‍⬛ 🖤

A detailed black ink unfinished drawing. In the foreground is acorns and oak leaves, further back is part of a bird and my pen laid on the page

I like that my work takes a long time to create.

It feels a bit like steadily carving away at it, watching it slowly take shape. It’s almost meditative.

It’ll be a while before this one is finished and I have lots of other ideas I want to work on but it takes as long as it needs to.

Tough choice...

Hello internet friends and friendly internet strangers.

Things are rough out there and we gotta pay bills, so here's a thread of tech for good* roles for all y'all looking for work right now.

*or just less evil, I hope!

Someone told me today that I have the best shoe collection, and I love her for that.

Photo of a several orange mushrooms growing in a cluster on the white bark of a birch tree. The mushrooms are attached to the tree with the gill side outward and are roundish to somewhat ear-shaped. The centres of the mushrooms contain a small amount of white fuzzy tissue.

Me, making recipe testing notes: "1 clove of garlic? That seems absurd, better put in half a head, just to be sure."

Me, later: "Huh, might need more garlic."

clematis blooming
like my weak-worded wishes
I cut them in half
hope holding myself hostage
smiling like a burst of light

If you ever want to read a paper for free and can't find it otherwise, email the lead author and politely ask for a copy. You will not be bothering the person. You will in fact make their whole entire day. I have had scientists get so excited I asked they sent me everything they ever published.

A POLITICIAN
CAN NEVER BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE

THEREFORE A POLITICIAN MUST NEVER
MAKE A MANAGEMENT DECISION

If children, Women’s rights, Black rights, Trans rights, Disability rights aren’t your concern but want to know about the tech and security info I can offer, then no thanks

Target had it made, with a loyal audience that was very much blue, and then they threw it all away because their leadership was like "finally racism is legal again!" There's not rebranding that can undo a mask off moment like that

Thinking about exploring writing poetry.

Does anyone have any good recommendations for maybe a book that has prompts for different styles of poetry and prose, or a similar source which both informs about the style and offers some ideas (as sometimes getting started is the stopper)?

You'll never regret removing yourself from anywhere you don't feel appreciated, loved, and respected. Says Skeletor sometimes wondering wait am I the baddie?

Thanks for the suggestion, I'll check them out!
