It was just, I realized that if I was going to be into a boy, it would be Josh. I mean, he's cute, and he's sweet, and he's such a gentleman. But I feel more when I look at a picture of Kristen Stewart than I do when I kiss him. No wonder you saw those Twilight movies so many times. Definitely wasn't for the quality storytelling.

i understand that it's unreasonable to expect a band on world tour to play in every country in the world but i do think they should only be allowed to call it a world tour if they play in every continent. we need to make it embarrassing to say world tour and then not even step foot in africa

I worry a little bit that people who refuse to learn about ai as a part of their anti ai position are going to be extremely unprepared to understand what’s actually scary about it and already have their digital literacy at risk tbh

[amanitaphalloides]

not that I am some genius in this regard but if you follow ai developments even slightly you might change the things you are most worried about. do people know the extent to which ai is already eating itself and how meaningless this is making swaths of the internet. do people know that there are plenty of random mid-sized companies today buying their employees’ likenesses to create digital clones and using these to make hundreds of videos. I am so much more worried about labor and surveillance and abuse than people becoming lazy about writing emails. and idk man I sort of like and respect people who are willfully ignorant about it as a way of minimizing its force in their lives and I am in some ways jealous but also when I see posts that basically still boil down to “chatgpt will never fool me” I am like 😭😭😭 for one thing not the only thing to be concerned about, for another thing I am really sorry but I don’t think you’re right

“Riumar Dunes” (2024)

In the summer of 2024, my children and I drove to Spain to explore the Ebro Delta. It was July–August, yet this place felt surprisingly peaceful.Riumar is nothing like the typical Spanish coast. You leave the highway, drive another 40–50 minutes through endless rice fields, and suddenly reach a shoreline of white sand dunes stretching toward the Mediterranean.This is one of Europe’s most important stopover points for migratory birds. Pink flamingos gather in the lagoons, and birdwatchers often outnumber ordinary tourists. Most travelers never come here—they are looking for busy beaches, nightlife, and large resorts. But locals, nature lovers, and ornithologists know just how special this landscape is.What fascinated me most was the sand. It didn’t feel static. It flowed like water, shimmered in the sunlight, and seemed to change color every moment. I wanted to capture that softness and movement, so I used delicate pastel tones, pearlescent pigments, and flowing brushstrokes to make the dunes feel almost alive.You may notice a small figure of my son in the painting. My children occasionally appear in my stories on social media, and they are a huge part of my life, so sometimes they naturally find their way into my paintings as well. They are not portraits or the main subject—just small figures within the landscape, quietly reminding us of our own place in nature and inviting the viewer to step into the scene.

getting fixated on something is funny because the first like week i have an insatiable need to tell everyone i know about it and spread the good word but by weeks 2 and 3 it becomes so intense and personal that even hearing it mentioned in public makes me sweat as if a dark secret was alluded to

late summer / early fall thoughts

[moonshinemagpie]

researching the history of education in japan and learning that, pre–Meiji Restoration, peasants/commoners formed their own schools to become educated because it was the best way of fighting tax fraud.

That is, when an official told you, a rice farmer, that you owed more taxes than you really did, it was very useful if you were good enough at math to know he was lying (and could prove it) and if you were good enough at writing to write a letter to your government defending your case.

all of which is to say it's crazy that mega-corporations are now pushing education to be "what if you paid us whatever we tell you to for the rest of your life and never do math or write anything ever again"
