Our porch light keeps going out so I'm braving the chill wind because the trick or treaters deserve candy
A person in a green dinosaur onesie sitting on a stoop. In the background is the dud porch light and the glow of purple string lights that are apparently not enough to signal to people that we have candy for trick or treaters

Can we talk about how awful this is for anywhere multiple people access computers? Libraries, classrooms, cafes, computer labs, open offices

Imagine how annoying ONE loud phone talker is in a room. Now that one person is everyone.

On top of being annoying, it's a nightmare for privacy and security
It's clear that whatever is coming next for Windows, it's going to promote voice as a first class input method on the platform. In addition to mouse and keyboard, you will be able to ambiently talk to Windows using natural language while you work, and have the OS understand your intent based on what's currently on your screen.

I didn't go to library school to dress up like video game characters, however dressing up like video game characters is one of the perks of library

Most of my DnD group either just moved or is in the process of moving so in lieu of map grids and minis we got creative
A plaid cloth napkin being used as a map grid. A few random minis surround a squirtle (dragon). A line of red d4s represents a wall of fire.

my jacobhorse arrived and he's as tall as my partner and as long as my couch

my medium sized jacobhorse is very pleased
Small jacobhorse, big jacobhorse, and my dog Bronx who is jacobhorse colored, lined up on my couch. In this angle the photo looks down the length of the jacobhorses from their faces. Halfway down the couch snuggled between them is a small brown dog looking at the camera.

The amount of mental gymnastics this company's founders are doing to convince everyone they aren't part of the problem is astonishing
"The company is yet to experiment with creating plus-size women, claiming 'the technology is not advanced enough for that'" I MEAN COME ON "The pair admit the AI images on their company's Instagram page are lacking in diversity and promote unrealistic beauty standards. They say they have tried to be more inclusive, but it's the users who don't engage much with those posts." In other words: it's not our fault y'all are racist, but we WILL capitalize on that "Seraphinne Vallora rejects the notion that it is putting people out of work, and says its pioneering technology 'is supplementary and not meant to replace models.' 'Were offering companies another choice in how they market a product,' Petrescu explains." Offer a company a corner to cut and they will slash it, no question and they know this. "The pair add that they have created jobs with their company, and part of the process of creating AI models requires them to hire a real model and photographer to see how the product looks on a person in real life." Then.... then WHAT is the fucking POINT if you're doing a shoot anyway!

It looks like they've also created a list of anyone who's called them out, just to be extra petty I guess

Not sure if it's possible to have someone blocked and also add them to a list? Or if blocking someone doesn't remove them from lists *you* added them to? Don't like it!
A list of users titled "People who just don't get it"

my mom sent me a care package in a Depends box (lol) but also censored all the underwear on the box (an extremely mom thing to do)
A box of Depends underwear with a big X of black duct tape covering the part of the model where the underwear is showing. Another side of the Depends box, with a black bar of duct tape covering the model's underwear.

feels so good to finally reset the altar in the new apartment
My altar on a long table with various tools, trinkets, and a reading space. Underneath is a smaller table full of tarot/oracle decks and divination tools. A top down view of my reading space with a casting cloth designed by Shing Yin Khor. A closeup of the altar showing a chaotic assortment of trinkets and tools. A closeup of the altar showing a tree-shaped jewelry tower that sits on top of a stack of old books.

for National Library Week every year my library does spirit week, and since the theme is Drawn to the Library our first spirit day is Art Day

So I dressed up as @drawfeeshow.com
Me, wearing a red Drawfee beanie that says "delete your art" and a red jumpsuit. You can't tell from the photo but I'm also wearing dinosaur earrings.

butt-to-butt-to-belly snuggles
Bronx, a small brown dog, and Brooklyn, a medium black dog, lay side by side on a bed, their butts touching. Bronx is pressed into my belly.
