The one in the middle is Seshat, goddess of wisdom and writing. She is in many ways a librarian goddess and that’s kind of neat.

I hope you all come along with me as my work grows and changes too. If you are also an artist I hope you understand that your voice matters and if you want to create something truly yours you won’t involve AI. Nothing new or genuine will ever come from it.

meaningless drivel because life is too short for that. So I will never use AI in any part of my process. To do so plagiarizes the work of countless other artists with absolutely no understanding of what anything means.

the best for anybody and things keep going poorly. So I aim to make art that helps people feel joy, compassion, safety, and inclusion.
Even if I fail I still have intention. I’m a living being creating work to connect with other living beings. I won’t waste my time pumping out…

DoubleTree you’ve got some explaining to do. Why am I - the guest too shaken up to stay - only getting 50% off that night while those who did relocate and stay until morning get the whole night comped. Doesn’t seem fair.
