I wrote about how email (our best protocols IMHO) could evolve into a ‘superinbox’—a human-first, AI-powered protocol with blockchain authentication that reinvents social media and the Internet. blobzine.substack.com/p/could-we-r...

Sweater progress. I think this one might actually get done before the weather changes.

How hard work, value, process, and performance get all tangled up with consumption, capitalism, and art on social media. Do you think performance makes the object and process interchangeable? Will we no longer care about the product of the work when the work is what we consume?
When the method becomes the work, does work become meaningless?
Creatives perform labor for free for the masses.

if your man:
- always soothes you when you're anxious
- likes to hang out at your favorite record store
- has dreamy ambient pads
- plays at 172bpm
that's not your man, that's a liquid drum n' bass record from 1996.

Here is my second large weaving, completed in March. This one took me a lot less time (~3 months) and I worked from a very simple cartoon outline and added all the colors and details as I went.

Does anyone know how to get a Meta Account Manager for a Business? I have a serious issue with a biz account and I am unable to get help through the standard chat and support. I would appreciate any referrals / help 🙏

We’re moving away from the Attention Economy and toward the Intimacy Economy, where we will value the quality of our followers, where we allow for more vulnerability. Will this new Economy bring us back together IRL?

I'm excited to share my newest weaving but I decided not to post any process photos before it's done. I think it will be done some time in April! It's probably going to be about 24" x 30". I tried a lot of new things in this piece.

I’m interested in the psychology behind asking a question that’s already been asked and answered in the comments previously. Do we really want to know the answer? Or, do we just want to see ourselves type… kind of like when we want to hear ourselves talk?
