The Wetland Project has been my favorite alternate-reality radio experience since it began. Since it only happens once a year, you can’t become accustomed to it. Close your eyes and be washed over by the sonic reality of an isolated bog on Saturna Island!

Thys ys a respite. Thys ys a quiet shore. Thys ys a forest full of lost songs. Thys ys a hope machine. Thys ys a treasurye of languages. Thys ys a beacon for wanderers. Thys ys a workshop for the broken heart. Thys ys wher we meet across tyme and space. Thys ys wher dreames begin. Thys ys a library.
Oh hey, I am once again going to talk about lack of distress tolerance, specifically for shame, and how it ties together AI, the “male loneliness epidemic,” Trumpism, and yes, people’s indignation that anyone might think they’re a bad person for continuing to buy Harry Potter merch.
A poem titled "Humanities" made up of a set of 6 haikus The text of the poem reads: Who needs history? Literature? Languages? Art? Philosophy? These can only help you to better understand our humanity. Best to let machines read your books. And write your books. Do your art for you. You will never need to think. Never need to learn. You’ll learn to like it. And when the end comes you’ll have never burdened your soul with any growth. Someone selling this sees profit in destroying your humanity. - John Wyatt Greenlee

4 pictures of différents woodcarvings Top left : Woodcarved humanoid octopus wearing a robe, arms wide open, in front of a book standing on branches. On the book, a frog. On the right arm, a kinfisher, and on the top of the head of the octopus, a round duck. The base is burn, on that angle it is not really obvious but is water with a slight wave form arround the octopus. On the background, an old door with old white paint. Top right : Woodcarved creature (Siren Head) with very long skeletal arms and legs, also too many ribs. Its head is a pole with two speakers and wires. Those speakers have teeth. On the highest speaker, a nest with a pigeon. Siren Head is extending its left arm, point a finger forward. A pigeon sits on its index. Caption says "Based on Siren Head by Trevor Henderson" Bottom left : Woodcarved humanoid goose wearing plate armour. She's holding a shield and a flanged mace. On the handle of the mace, a red robin landed. The eyes of the goose are made of glass. The feet and the beak are painted in burnt yellow, as the breast of the red robin. The upper part of the robin is painted in brown/grey and its eyes and beak in black. Bottom right : Woodcarved humanoid crow wearing a hooded cloak, shoulder armor. It has its right hand on a sword. A squirrel is climbing its left arm. On the base, a cat is resting.

Hey all, if you have the capacity to help out two Minnesota families who are struggling, this is a great way to do it.
Strongly encourage all academics, novelists, reporters, bloggers, whatever to just email this account and state that you want to opt out of this idiocy.
Overload them with emails and make them regret they ever tried this shit.

The declyne of readinge ys caused by manye thinges. One major cause ys a systematic & decades-long devaluinge of literature at all levels of educacioun. We kan not put instrumentalitye above meaninge and still thrive. Fundinge the humanityes ys key to a just societye of well-informed citizens.

A dump of photos from this evening's sunset at Big Beach in Ucluelet. Lately I've been trying to limit my photo posts to 1 or 2 shots but I just couldn't cull that many... There was light, waves, birds and I brought out my "good" gear. Hope you like some of them.

A few moments from a new, 16 minute long, widescreen video I just shared. It features storm watching moments from #Tofino, #Ucluelet and Long Beach earlier this month.
It's all shot from the ground with just the camera audio so you can imagine you're standing in a #VancouverIsland storm!
