I’m doing a phd in social anthropology because I am a (nosy) artist who tells stories…
My speel chucking is broken toady.

One more coffee and then off to school…

Thanks enmax … the notice you sent at the endog october said this would happen on nov 2, not 22.

As it is I may have to go into school today to get anything done. I may have to “accidentally” hit the gym as well. Shucks.

… I did NOT authorize this…!

Why does this remind me of the iPod sock? The price is a whole lot more though. From $25 for six to $120 for one.

This is a form of a dark interface…

A fake scratch or hair or bit of dirt in an add that makes you inadvertently touch the screen, activating the advertisement.

Despicable… there should be expectations of standards for online advertisements, much like other forms of media.

Doesn’t really capture the advance of drilling in the late 30s the way I thought it would.

Having a lot of trouble configuring how the data is used. ArcGIS keeps shuffling dates…

I need a break.

A short walk from home is the coolest corner in an alley… the space between houses feels like stepping g into some heavily populated city where the locals know the best ramen shop, but everyone else only hears about it in folkloric whispers…

It’s not that I am losing time, it’s that I am losing patience.

Instagram has lost its focus, threads was never more than another wound in a carcass for Meta to infect, and Facebook was always a rot in a riot

Tumblr has really been the only stable thing, even with its instability. Same with Flickr

Stepping away from Bluesky for a while and deleting the app from my phone.

Honestly it’s because I am unsure what role it plays. Social media has declined since Twitter was bought, and no matter which method I use it all feels like grasping at the rails of a canoe that has already sunk.

Tumblr is such a vast repository of the weird…

Well. Apparently this stuff doesn’t cook unless you turn it on. Duh.

Anyone have a canon crank that uses the 290 style bottles? The black is full but the others have just under half. My printer died (no more colour, just black) and I have replaced it with an Epson.

Three hours, 8 slides. Not sure if that is a good return. I do say having more than one space to work at in the house is nice.

The presentation is on the usefulness of story mapping for data insight and potentially community engagement.

Or “how I spent my summer vacation”… title is still in flux.

Yesterday someone described to me a music card put out by bands and artists.

I never saw one, but dayum that sounds intriguing. Given the current fluctuation in usb ports it wouldn’t work as well today unless there were two styles of ports.

Apparently called a USB flash drive…

Have you seen one?

I love the ambiguity of how leaves fall from trees…

So now … two days to organize thoughts and images into something that wasn’t on my radar..
October 27, 2025 at 12:07 AM
Like so many things I do the audience will have to see past what I say to get at what I am talking about.

It’s not the ride that’s important, it’s how we got there that matters.
October 27, 2025 at 12:07 AM
I think I have it organized now but it will be a very rushed presentation given the new direction.

I’m think this will be a case where numbering the slides will make it easier for people to ask questions afterwards.
October 27, 2025 at 12:07 AM
I have spent most of the day letting the back of my mind ruminate on the logistics of how to organize a presentation on Wednesday that has diverged from my original plan to something I have not fully explored.

The more I see older catalog images on tumblr, the more I realize the improbable poses that women had to use. Look at their feet. No one stands like that…

I hope that’s not the milkshake flavour…🤔
