The way profit maxxing corpo culture has invaded every form of art through algorithms pushing people into daily posting is really weighing on me lately. Efficiency and regularity of making "content" being prized above all else feels so grim, man.
These findings been validated. And the more it is investigated, the more apparent it becomes that the abuse is intentional. Landlords should not be running healthcare facilities, but investors enable them to overstep the decisions of actual healthcare workers because it generates a larger profit.
I recall seeing a working paper about this around 2020, suggesting that patient mortality increases drastically after acquisition by a real estate investment trust.
I have strong feelings about this but lack the mental bandwidth to put words to it right now.

First time visiting Dixon Lake.
They have this rule specifically to ban anyone who doesn’t sound Republican enough.
I was asked to give my thoughts on generative AI usage in games - here they are!
“If I am killed doing this, throw my body at the White House, martyr the shit out of me & raise hell. Do not be sad. Do not think I would do anything differently. I would do it over & over again — this is too important to sit down & shut up and not do anything.” www.mprnews.org/story/2026/0...

Very cool site where you can look up animal skull reference angles and pair that with pictures of the animal at that angle
I think the misogynist contempt that’s evident as a motivation in the murder of Renee Good makes her killing by a state actor more similar to so-called private violence—eg domestic violence homocides—than some arguments that rely on a firm distinction between state and private violence can sustain.
I unboxed this power bouncer from 1998 and it came out way more pristine than expected
One last plein air outing for 2025. There was lot of nonsense this year trying to distract me with disingenuous immediacy. I will be seeking certain silences in the natural world to drown that out in 2026.
I discovered this recently too! The copyright for the name Zootopia was already claimed there.
has anyone else noticed that food tasted better in the past? it was mushy and easy to eat. and the spoon would come at you like an airplane

Goddamn dude, just go ahead knock 25 percent off my 401k and get on with it, I can't take much more of this.
Hi! We’re a coffee shop where you had a work meeting eight months ago. Would you like to get two emails a week for the rest of your life?
I was too young to watch Amelie when it came out but I’m old enough to remember seeing this DVD cover all over blockbuster.
Did a paint out with my plein air group at an antique tractor show this morning.

Here's another one from the Oregon coast.
I think CeraVe is your best bet here. The tinted kind takes about 10 minutes to stop looking greasy because it needs to soak in. There is also a non-tinted kind which I believe looks less greasy from the get go.
Here was my morning. Just wrapped up at La Jolla Shores.
I’m going to do plein air painting today.
After some trial and error, the technique I’ve settled on for painting cat whiskers is to simply paint with an actual whisker. #catsofbluesky #art
Copic markers & pencil. #art #catsofbluesky #sketchbook
