From Insta. This is so neat! We need monsters like this. Stylized, fluid, unconventional.
(Not me however. My spine says “no,” but in less polite terms.)

Hate being lonely all the time and then interacting with people at a closer distance than a 12-hour time diference or 300-ish characters makes me feel profoundly worse to the point of suicidality. It's both immediately bad and also *existentially* bad--

It’s widely known (and, I think, pretty uncontroversial) that learning requires effort — specifically, if you don’t have to work at getting the knowledge, it won’t stick.
Even if an LLM could be trusted to give you correct information 100% of the time, it would be an inferior method of learning it.

Relying on ChatGPT to teach you about a topic leaves you with shallower knowledge than Googling and reading about it, according to new research that compared what more than 10,000 people knew after using one method or the other.

I wish I could take public transit without getting sick.
It's not so bad on local transit but the international traveller (ie Shirakawago bus terminal) plague mélange gets me every time, through a mask. I assume I'm getting infected through my eyes.

That only took 6 months.
I cut the channel for this surface drain when I took out most of the driveway, but then kept buying or renting broken demolition hammers. Finally got one that works, this took about 3 hours.

It's Trans Day of Remembrance.
They won't ever be able to get rid of us, no matter what. No amount of hateful legislation can change the fact of our existence.

Frost in the garden this morning. I can't wait until the house is done and I can enjoy winter instead of feeling animal panic.
Fern + fishplant, oak leaf hydrangea, stewartia.

I remember when there was a discussion on Twitter about Shein's manufacturing practices and some apologists invented all sorts of fantastical machinery and technology to avoid facing the more horrifying truth. Reminds me of this comedian's joke.

Week 2 of car-free rural life.
I'm taking the Meitetsu bus to Shirakawago (it feels like the 7 train, its so nostalgic!!!) and then the local bus + 6km hike back to the house. Tomorrow is the last foreseeable sunny day so I must be there to do concrete patching.

We lived in a pub when I was growing up and when I was 3 (50 years ago!) we had someone in to draw the pub for a business card. I sat next to him and watched him draw every line. I was transfixed and it was a huge inspiration for me. I’ve dreamt about owning that drawing for years…

Sometimes the scales of Patriarchy Hell balance in my favor.
I got another Balmuda range of the same year/make as the one up at the house for about $60USD because recycle shop dudes don't know about oven cleaner.

Nanny state where I can waltz into the drug store and buy testosterone but womens' vaginas are a public utility so you can't have miconazole without a song and dance and the pharmacist insisting that only doctors can administer suppositories. Are people going to the internist for tampon changes???
