Not paying Adobe anymore, so I'm up to maybe 55% proficient with GIMP.
Meanwhile I can do some basic image compositing, like this, which of course is 99.9999% the creation of Emmanuel Leutze, 226 years ago. I like to think he wouldn't mind my vandalization. I feel certain George Washington wouldn't.

Side note: if you're the owner of one of the Teslas that got set on fire, you should probably talk to a lawyer before you talk to the cops. Even if you had absolutely nothing whatsoever to do with this. Even if you're not upside-down in a loan!

The great Jules Feiffer has died. If there were ever a time to revisit his work, it's now.

Arguably one of Jimmy Carter's greatest achievement is bringing the world to the brink of eradicating the Guinea Worm.
From 3.5m cases a year in the 80s to less than 15 the last few years. It's an astounding public health achievement.

Arthur C. Clarke was a pretty rad dude.
"One of the great tragedies of mankind is that morality has been hijacked by religion. So now people assume that religion and morality have a necessary connection. But the basis of morality is really very simple and doesn't require religion at all."
