with around 90 minutes, I unpacked groceries, put beef into two different marinades, made sigumchi namul, breaded baked pork chops, and a lot of pad si ew with tofu for lunch

and weirdly during the entire thing was thinking of an old distinctly *not* east Asian folk song

@anthracite hey I liked Mirrormask!

Instead of eating weed or masturbating frantically to physically impossible scenarios, like a SANE person, I worked on #drawings.

oh NOOOOO it's the part of Labyrinth where she eats a poisoned peach and hallucinates so badly she thinks she's in the music video for Anne Lennox's "Walking on Broken Glass"

Labyrinth/Dune fanfic in which young Alia Atreides, tired of caring for her baby brother Paul, travels deep into the labyrinth to face the evil Feyd-Rautha Harkonen, but she has only 13 hours before he gets his heartplug inserted and becomes a Harkonen *forever*.

Residents of Fremont have learned to fear the annual Ballard Nordic Festival, when swarms of armored raiders drawn by their neighbors’ far greater wealth drive east.

In fact, fearsome raiders from Ballard have voyaged as far as Queen Anne and even, supposedly, Georgetown.

@Kensan_Oni I still love how at 1:45 or so the track suddenly becomes VERY swashbuckling.

@LexYeen Corporations do occasionally get deadnames. Twitter had problems but was basically usable, before she transitioned into a completely different entity.

oh yeah listening to "Supermarine" and "Me 262" on the drive home reminded me

current bathroom reading are Osprey books about Operation Dragoon and Allison engine Mustangs and the latter is so completely incandescent in its praise I suspect the author is dating a P-51a/P-51b

the Denis Villeneuve version of “Up in Smoke,” so much truer to the source material than the 1978 version

Posting tonight’s #drawing now, to feel better.

a couple of years back I worked for a company that packaged AI with their sales software - it'd scan emails and roughly flag them for salespeople. I curated sets of data to feed the algorithm - f'rex, if an email says "go fuck yourself" you and I know that's a "do not try to sell me your product," but without that input the AI's got no context and guesses.

They were ultra super ethical about this, in contrast to how AI's come to mean "we can freely raid your images and text."

And I came to the conclusion that AI would cause WWIII not because of actual autonomous malevolence, but because it'd come to correlate an increased level of hostility with say, specific sandwich orders, and one evening it'd pick up on a lot of those sandwiches being orders and decide launching missiles was the next logical step.

marginalized experience is that you're either villains, invisible or occasionally whatever heroic role (you know; Athlete, Musician, Comedian, Computer Scientist)

and I am noticing this holds true for how trans people are treated only there's also a gender binary where it's trans women who get to be villains or occasional heroes; trans men get to be invisible.

emailed senators again, asking them to please do something about the EPA's role once again as the Administration's means of advancing an anti-environmental profiteering agenda.

Do you think for a moment I LIKE emailing or calling my reps?

#drawings from/finished yesterday

Hot biological nomenclature take;

Any genus with the suffix –don sounds indistinguishable from minor Doctor Who villains

*rubber lizard suit*
*Dr. Who villain voice*
You are an enemy of the IGUANADONS! It is pointless to resist!
*thumbs fall off revealing guns*
*UNIT troops open fire as is tradition*
