CW: suicide

I truly hate that now every time someone in my community ends their life, I have to wonder whether an LLM pushed them to complete an attempt

A student I met last year, who had faced some of the same struggles and disadvantages that I have, asked me if I ever questioned whether I belonged at the table with people who hadn't faced such issues. I told her that I never experience those doubts professionally and that she shouldn't either.

My despair-fighting deed of the day: donated an exhibition piece to an awesome Ypsi therapist office / health community hub, because everyone deserves some wild wonder when they're going through it!

We used to play so much burnout that when my friends and I had an actual spinout on 23 we looked at each other in the backseat and said quietly '.. So does that count as a psyche out takedown, or...'

Woke up for some reason with the Burnout 3 Takedown soundtrack spinning in my head, so that's what this morning is apparently calling for. Shoutouts to Southfield's Von Blondies

Often nature moments are envisioned and waited for.

You see something or imagine it might happen, and you have to plan and return multiple times

Often it never happens

Then there are the completely unexpected encounters

Like a baby goose hopping on mamas back

And it's FUCKING ADORABLE!

I love games and so many of the people who make them. It was an honor to accept the award on behalf of the team and a privilege to be able to speak to what I believe in. β™₯️

It's definitely one of my favorites from last year! I've ended up with a real affinity for Sandhill Cranes since some stay year round near me, and this shot in particular was made from my drivers side window after pulling over to the side of the road!

selfish generosity: the therapist gets art for their space, and I don't have to find space for a heavy framed 28x40" print in my house

Question for the hive mind! Has anyone making whistle kits come up with kid/teen friendly instructions for assembling them? (folding the zines, describing safe use of the whistles, connecting kit making to safety, etc.)

I've got 5011 other reasons to oppose the data centers umich is pushing, but I think we can add 'turning parts of Washtenaw County into a viable strike targets because we've got a Los Alamos AI cluster' to the list

For $1 billion a day we could add enough solar panels to double the generating capacity of the US grid in less than five years.

As a professor, providing accommodations doesn’t impact me at all, and it helps students out. The fact that anyone cares about this is baffling to me.

But then I remember that the country is currently run by eugenicist freaks and they’ve just found a new group to hound.
