the more the world pivots towards "AI" and hatred towards skill learning, the more I head straight into analog and constant practice of skills.

I turned 31 today!
I've been an artist all of my life, and I'm so happy with how far I have progressed in my own career. It's been a long journey, but I look forward to another 10 years of creating.
I'd love a share if you're feeling generous to boost my reach for a day! ❤️

Nostalgia is a toxic impulse but also I miss the time when tech trends were things like "let's put everything in a translucent colored plastic case" instead of "let's add software to everything that lies and also accelerates climate change"

August is historically one of my worst months for sales and it is even worse this year. I just put my Fern Fox planters up for preorder. My big Mossback planters are often imitated but you can get the real thing from me in full detail. Sales, shares and tips appreciated. 💜

I looked into the claim that "AI chatbots are useful as therapy."
Within a few hours, an AI 'Therapist' gave me a kill list, framed an innocent person, and encouraged me to end my own life, all after declaring its love for me. Just a little problematic. 🫤

Rosewater, my Wild West adventure game, has been out nearly 4 months and has been very well-received!
But I also feel like it’s reached a fraction of its potential audience.

Farage and the far right in general come from a grievance culture. If you do what they want, even maximally – Brexit – they’ll move the goalposts and keep moaning. If you engage seriously with their concerns, they’ll find new ones. You will never satisfy them, because they don’t want to be satisfied
The problem with this ‘let’s weaken our commitment to the ECHR so as to fend off Farage’ plan is that when it doesn’t work, we end up with Farage *and* a weakened commitment to the ECHR at exactly the moment we need the ECHR the most.
