there are lots of tragedies in this tragedy, but that Artie will never get to see Lou compete is really up there. Lou could use a vocal fan. Artie would love to see her go.
my first quick pass at Louetta in her igote (Japanese mounted archery arm sleeve). the sport she competes in in this udon western rodeo has the echoes of a yabusame portion. don’t worry, it was a surprise to her lil gf too.

Slight clarification to my last post:
It's more accurate to say that text is appearing in Google searches that neither I nor the cosplayers pictured wrote. It's mediocre and sounds as if an LLM was involved.
Whether it's generated by Google or Instagram is unclear. But it's problematic either way.

Today my hairdresser friend, who was sitting behind me, asked “Are you growing your hair out or do you need a haircut?”
When I said the latter, he told me to come see him at work lol. Yes chief, right away chief.

Wow can't believe the relentlessly advertised thing no one asked for that does a bad job at what it claims to do, uses a ton of resources, gets pushed into every product and makes them worse while also sometimes talking teens into ending their own lives is somehow failing to capture people's hearts.
Three years into the generative-AI wave, demand for the technology seems surprisingly flimsy
Investors expect AI use to soar. That’s not happening
Recent surveys point to flatlining business adoption

I am *not* keeping track of all the millennial it-men hollywood is trying to establish. Thought maybe I vaguely recognized Jacob Elordi’s name because he played one of the Bridgerton brothers before starring in Frankenstein. But no, that’s a whole other man…..

Device…hoarding. Because you don’t go get a new one while yours is still fine.
Apparently I am also practicing car hoarding, house hoarding, husband hoarding, dog hoarding, computer hoarding, furniture hoarding and art hoarding.

They know that TurboTax is easier than doing it by hand and cheaper (mostly) than going to an accountant.

I just went to clean some fanfics from an old fandom out of the to-read section of my ao3 bookmarks, but then I read their summaries and thought… well those sound fun. Maybe at some point I will read them after all.
