It takes 0.04 liters of water to make a single AI image. Meanwhile, it takes 5 liters to make a single piece of paper, and presumably even more when you add a pencil to it.

Using AI to make art is literally better for the environment than pencil and paper. www.theatlantic.com/technology/a...

last week i remembered that macOS lets you set your own icons and that *I* have the power to delegitimize the professionalism of the software that runs on my machine, so here's a thread of the 16 new icons i've made so far

i really forgot how fun it was to just sit down and make art for myself :')

@dame.is anisota's slick, and the "year in review" was a clever way to get me to try it again

one thing i see missing: i can't do feed show preferences

"show less" has kept my For You feed nice, i can't lose it ...

(i'd offer a pr, but i don't see a repo, so i offer this humble plea instead)

duck

y'all be sleeping on duck and it's a proper delight

whole duck is available at bigger asian food marts and they'll probably even cut the head and feet off for you
Turkey is a subpar bird, and every Thanksgiving, well-meaning people spend days and thousands of dollars trying to make their beloved feast centerpiece taste as good as mediocre chicken

one of the reasons you should block is the realization that one of the main reasons people who annoy or bother you comment has little to do with you. they want to use you as a kind of publishing medium

nearly broke the bride doing it, even with explicit warning and permission

a great little ceremony all around
i am officiating a wedding next wednesday, as a last minute replacement for the pastor who can't make it

i have the couple's permission to start with the princess bride mawwaige speech

and these kind of opportunities only come along once, so you better bet i'mma take it

‘Tulip’ comes from the Turkish word ‘tülbent’ which means "turban."

The flower got its name from the resemblance of its overlapping petals to the folds of fabric in a turban.

"everyone here is 38" is clearly true

"everyone here is 12" is also clearly true

superficially, they're contradictory statements

thank you for squaring that circle, inland empire

i just told claude "that was a brave assumption"

normally i'm nicer, but it did make a rookie mistake

i feel a little bad about it tbh

gay deceiver's a robot car in the number of the beast

and there's this bit where an expert looks over their brain, expressing horror at all the bodges and bailing-wire that went into it

and given where we are right now in this vibe-coding struggle session, i feel like that namesake was well chosen

acknowledging wins of distasteful people is real important

that's where most of the juice is

maybe we like "2+2=5? sure" cuz keanu said it

but this worked because it works, not because he's cool
it's keanu's "2+2=5? sure is"

claude has learned to run big things in the background, and then run a sleep foreground as a wake-timer to check on the progress

Some evenings when I've had a few too many, I go out in the garage and piss around the perimeter to deter mice. Husband hasn't caught me yet. Mice don't care, but I like doing it.
