some pictures of art im making to represent the 15 dimensional space of the Cistern, a multiverse system for my worldbuidling projects

[myryzza]

some more, since i can only attach 10 images at once

okay. fine. i have a solution that will make no one happy. let's make pluto a planet. if we launch one tungsten cube per day for 200 years precisely aimed at pluto's surface it will become massive enough to gravitationally clear its orbit of other kuiper belt objects. this will be completely useless and extremely expensive as well as potentially dangerous. and it will destroy the heart

astronomical definitions of planets are complicated and fucked, but in either case my personal hot take is that the moon (Luna) should be considered a planet, and im dead serious

its been about 10 years since she showed me this but i am STILL thinking about how my (then) 4 year old cousin drew birds

OBSESSED with this creature; she draws the body from above/below and the head from the side, with a giant eyeball that takes up the entire head and never looks in a specific direction. in a very old-fashioned sense: iconic

lovely, lovely static as smooth as fine silk and decadent as a plum, refreshing as a sprig of lavender, this static will make you feel just like that cool, dewy spring morning has come again, a rare sight indeed.

cat this stat with Quicksilver-D10-N3, with cohesion turned Way down and resonance between 30 and 47 MHz

Once when I was in undergrad, someone described something as “problematic” in class and our professor was like, “That’s cool, but ‘problematic’ doesn’t really mean anything. It means that the thing you’re describing has a problem, and in and of itself that’s not bad. Art, especially, should always have problems, or else it’s not interesting and not art, either. It sounds like you’re trying to say that this is bad, but you don’t want to say ‘bad.’ Is that right?”

So from then on whenever one of us called something problematic, he would make us talk it out until we could name the “bad” thing we were hinting at. In this particular class, 7/10 it was some type of oppression, and the remainder was like, “I’m uncomfortable because this is very new/confusing/pushing boundaries that made me feel safe.”

Once we stopped calling things “problematic” and stopping at that, class got way more interesting and... we all had to say, like, “that’s racist” or “that’s misogynistic” or “ew capitalism gross” out loud, which a lot of us had never done in a classroom before. Or we had to be like, “Uhhh... I’m not sure what’s so bad?” and confront our own beliefs and that was maybe even more useful.

Anyway. Whenever I see the word problematic, I can’t help but think of this professor being like, “Good starting point, now let’s get specific.” I think when we have to commit to saying “that’s ___” it requires a lot more careful thought about the truth and impact and complexities of whatever we’re claiming. Sometimes there really is some bullshit afoot, and also sometimes it’s art, and it should be full of problems, because that’s what art is.

i think the fun thing about learning how to talk to dogs, or one of them, is that you get to have conversations utterly unlike the conversations you'd have with human beings. like, for example: Skippyjon is often hesitant to come inside out of the yard because he knows he will have to put his belly band on and he doesn't like it. sometimes we need to coax him in. so he and Ship often have the following conversation

Skippy: I don't wanna come in. you're gonna put that belly band on me :(

Ship: Yeah, I am. sorry dude. you gotta wear it. will it sweeten the deal if I do a funny little high pitched voice?

Skippy: no I don't really care for that

Ship: ok how about if I use a sort of slow deep voice when I ask you to come inside, how do you feel about that

Skippy: Hmmm. yes I like that voice. i will come inside if you ask me in that voice.

these are not human being conversations they are dog conversations. perhaps occasionally adjacent to human toddler conversations but not a conversation you would have with a peer. so. it's fun. and interesting. its different :)

Happy Pride Month to those two women dancing together in the foreground of the boat scene in Godzilla (1954).

I’m sorry your romantic foibles were overshadowed by a big ass atomic lizard thing.

“Because the truth is, tech doesn’t have an image problem. It doesn’t have a message problem. It has an intention problem. What’s wrong with the axe murderer who broke into my house is not that he hasn’t successfully persuaded me to buy into his narrative. What’s wrong is that he’s trying to kill me with an axe. Similarly, when you launch a product that’s designed to put millions of people out of work, block access to sources of verifiable truth, replace human creativity with slop, and lower the barriers to every sort of atrocity, the problem isn’t that you haven’t told the public a good story about those things. The problem is that you are trying to do them.”

Since you don’t respect my opinion anyway, quit pestering me to fill out a survey after every single consumer experience. I keep wondering who looks at these surveys. Is the CEO sitting in his wood-paneled office, reading each individual response on an old-timey stock ticker? If so, you can keep doing this. If not, I rate this experience zero stars out of infinity.
