I'm a library worker, fish catcher, musician, aspiring writer, goofball, horror loving (I get to review books for Library Journal!), dog dad with an amazing wife.
Here is a nice flower from my yard. Sometimes, I remind myself how lucky I am to have something so beautiful so close.

One of my favorite local bands, which is actually stacked with my best friends, played a killer show last night. This is the worst picture I took, so of course, I had to edit it to make it a little more awful.

One of my friends is going to be super pumped to see what I snagged her from the library book sale today. @chuckpalahniuk.bsky.social is her absolute favorite!

In fact, "automating pleasurable activities" for some questionable efficiency is so bleak lol

"While it's difficult to quantify the electricity used by AI, a report estimated that a ChatGPT query uses nearly 10 times as much electricity as a Google search query.

That makes some people uncomfortable."

Um... It should make EVERYONE uncomfortable, Suzanne. Maybe that's part of the problem 🙄

I left a Facebook Squier guitars fan group this morning bc it added an AI "feature." Why does a fan group need AI? The addition of AI is so completely unnecessary in arts or fandom. I dont get the fascination. Captain Planet would be so pissed.

In case you need to send this to some dingus the next time they bring up how using AI is fine + good, actually.

Say it after me: Chat GPT is not a search engine. It does not scan the web for information, it just generates statistically likely sentences. You cannot use it a search engine, or as a substitute for searching.

Now. Please never use an LLM for information searches ever again.

If a stranger posts about how happy a silly little pleasure made them and your response is to be an asshole and make fun of them it’s time to re-examine your whole life.

It’s 2025. We no longer shit on other people’s joy if it’s not hurting anyone else. This is loser behavior.

Yo! I just turned in my Library Journal review this novel. Spoiler alert for the review...I liked it! Plus, I learned some new words! Sfumato! Fun to say. Definitely put this on your list.
Hey! You into BOAT STUFF?

I guess I should start reminding people regularly that my forthcoming novel THE NIGHT THAT FINDS US ALL is available for pre-order! The amazing @almakatsu.bsky.social had this to say about it:
