Tomorrow, at my apartment complex,
the management is doing a "sweep"
where anything left outside by
residents will be gathered up and
thrown away. Also , all planter and
pots must be removed or they'll be
thrown away. Anything planted in the
ground will be covered in bark dust or
killed. I wish I was joking. The
complex is run by home forward, the
management is Pinehurst.
There is nothing in the lease that
says we can't pant stuff. They say
they're doing it to make it look better,
but I don't understand how tearing up
plants and destroying flowers and
covering it with bark dust is an
improvement.

Last time they threw away bikes and
grills. All perfectly
Good stuff going to the landfill. They
gave us 6 days notice, left it on our
doors on Friday

APARTMENTS
April 03, 2026

Dear Residents,

As we all know the weather will be changing and we will have
more sunny days ahead. With the sunny days coming, The
Ellington will be cleaning up the property, and we have
scheduled a few projects that are coming up next week along
with reminders.
1. On April 8,2026 we will be putting down bark dust all
around each building. We will need all residents to
remove everything away from the buildings, including
plants and personal rocks. Any plants that have been
planted into the ground will need to be removed and if
not, the landscapers will lay bark dust over them. The
Ellington or the landscapers will not be responsible or
liable for any damaged potted plants and or plants in
the ground. Residents have until Tuesday 4/7/26 to have
all items removed.
2. The Ellington did a walk-through of the property and
noticed many personal and non-exterior patio furniture
being stored outside of the buildings. We noticed many
BBQ pits on the property which are not allowed. We
noticed trash, broken down items, and cigarette
cup/cans filled with butts. All residents have until
Tuesday 4/7/26 to remove all items or will receive a
notice and all items will be removed by staff on
Wednesday 4/8/26 at 8:00 AM if not removed by
residents.
3. During our walk, many breezeway doors were propped. The
doors are to always remain closed. Residents leaving
doors propped are putting everyone else in the building at
risk.
4. The Ellington is a NO SMOKING PROPERTY
(Marijuana included); Smoking is allowed on the
sidewalk.
5. All pets/animals must be on a leash and registered with the
office. No breeding is allowed on the property.
6. All approved cameras need to be installed on the unit door

How do we function in a post-truth paradigm? When even the skeptics are no longer certain whether a photo or video is real or not.
What comes next, after “truth”? This is not a rhetorical question. I honestly want to know how we move forward from here. 4/4

And in an authoritarian regime it’s not unusual for the powers-that-be to lie with impunity and the true believers will ignore the fact checkers, if the fact checkers are even allowed to live. But with the new powers of AI the lies and deepfakes are becoming undetectable. 2/4

The thing that terrifies me the most about our current times is the rapid extinction of the concept of truth. “Truth”—especially “photographic truth”— has always been a tricky term but we’ve generally been able to come to some sort of consensus about what is real and what isn’t. 1/4

A man in a suit is lying is in the middle of a road. He has been disemboweled by a couple of velociraptors. (I think they're velociraptors, but I'm no dinosaur expert.) At the side of the road another man in a suit is fleeing from a couple more dinosaurs. The lights of a town are visible in the distance.

This 15-year-old piece never got finished to the client’s satisfaction so she came to me to give it some life.

Undiagnosed autism is spending your whole life doing things that make you uncomfortable or that are just not "you" (conforming) to avoid being mistreated (bullied) until you're so good at it that when you finally do get diagnosed, people around you don't believe you.

I’ve designed a new anti AI sticker based on my piece “Kalopsia,” which was created to illustrate the grave concerns around the environmental impact of unregulated generative AI.

These stickers are 100% made by me, so you know you’re supporting a human artist with your advocacy too. 💜

An exercise in backlighting. The figure reference is from @howardlyonart.bsky.social and the horse is an Icelandic pony i met on the drive from Reykjavik to Akureyri a few years back.
