I have to try this!
Necessity is the mother of invention. Pro tip: an old CD tower, on its side, makes an excellent drying rack for prints! #linocut #printmaking #art

🚨 Elon Musk wants a licence to supply UK homes with energy. Politicians warn it’s a national security risk. Join 43,000+ calling on Ofgem to block his plan: 38d.gs/xkpg
I thought this headline was a joke when I first read it, but no…it's real.
I've signed a petition telling Ofgem to reject Musk's application to supply electricity to British households. Will you join me and add your name?

My BEAR puppet for the "Mary Poppins" Book Series Challenge over on IG. Making a puppet for stopmotion takes time, so I like to reuse and recycle. And I do get fond of them. This is Baloo from Jungle Book ... in another life.

UNRWA has food for the entire population for over three months — stockpiled and ready also in Al Arish, Egypt.

The supplies are available. The systems are in place.

Open the gates. Let UNRWA deliver.
1 million children are waiting.

My final 2 tiny #tetrapakprints for the recent IG challenge. The prompts were: "whistling swans" and "bits of string". I am smitten by the technique and hope to fit in time for more although my puppets call out to be animated.

Some of my tetrapak prints for a challenge over on IG. Learning, learning. 👍
The prompts were : I am the cat who walks alone; secret sorrow; and ... they sailed away.

If your business model doesn’t work without breaking the law, then you’re not in business.

You’re in organized crime.

Just remember..
So…about AI’s energy use…

“…to create a five-second video, a newer AI model uses ‘about 3.4 million joules, more than 700 times the energy required to generate a high-quality image’. That's the equivalent of running a microwave for over an hour.”
Report: Creating a 5-second AI video is like running a microwave for an hour
That's a long time in the microwave.

Kittenears. Scalpelling away the foil surface of a tetrapak plate to reveal the cardboard base gives lovely blacks. In this case it also saved a bad drawing. I got rid of the hash-up and turned the result into another image.
