Had to wash the darkroom apron today. Developed six rolls of 120 and managed to dribble fix over my arm. Fortunately, the apron did its job protecting the rest of me!

As someone who has spent a lot of time studying 19th century photography I can safely say that photography has been distorting reality since the 1830s. https://mastodon.cloud/@slashdot/115820215567307960

Between this (in which rural voters will be forced to pay higher rates for power) and Trump vetoing the Arkansas water pipeline project in a different rural (and heavily GOP) part of the state it will be amazing if anyone votes Republican in Colorado ever again […]

Your worst self-insert, derivative, cringe, fan-fiction is a higher form of art and more worthy of preservation and appreciation than *anything* an AI has ever made.
It contains more meaning, says more about the human condition.

A kid let the cat out late last night, which was of course the first night in an age that it actually got quite cold and snowed. Awakened early this morning by the sound of a none-too-pleased, cold-pawed cat meowing grumpily at the window. He is now on my lap. :blobcatcoffee:

Another thing they don’t tell you about being older is how many salves and unguents you have to use just to avoid looking like an Ent from Middle Earth. I’m pretty sure Tolkien based Ents on people in their fifties who have learned how to talk very slowly and precisely about birds and the weather.

Anyone can read the redactions of the Epstein Files by just copying and pasting them into a word doc. The people at Trump's Justice Department are so stupid they used Adobe Acrobat to black out the documents.

Just attended the westernmost menorah lighting, the last in the world (or so the rabbi said). Princeville, Kauai. Beautiful night. And a tiki torch menorah to boot.

Attached: 1 image If you’ve ever wondered how Christmas affects electricity demand, here’s the data for 2012–2024. Demand starts falling a week before Christmas, and only returns to normal levels a week into the new year, with the three bank holidays having particularly low demand. Christmas Day is the unique day each year without an evening peak in demand as few people cook an evening meal. As ever, you can see the live data at https://grid.iamkate.com.
