One time I was talking with my dad about COVID and he said “when you get to be my age, all your friends and enemies have mostly dropped by the wayside – unless you’re one of the ones who drop.” He’s 90, now.

I feel that listening to a semi-dramatic reading of a Trump indictment gives me a mental distance that allows me to appreciate the language and the argument as I hear it.
I made the “uptown shiv” and it turned out, as I had feared, it was a bit too ostentatious.
It’s when a vocalist is on the edge, that their voice comes through.
It’s sad that Henry Kissinger is still alive, while Sinead O’Connor is not.

My favorite thing about AI art is that the results are throw-aways. You are not asking a real artist to pour weeks of work and years of skill into something that is, basically, a joke.
Seriously, sometimes we humans and our AI friends completely fail to get on the same page.
My high school science teacher asked me if I could make a hiking staff for one of my other high school science teachers who is retiring in September. How could anyone say “no” to that?
What I realized is that I was making those chisels for a beginner, who was going to be working at a makerspace, and, unlike mine, the chisels were not going to sit permanently on a rack near the lathe. They were going to wind up being transported in a car, carried around, etc. Godzilla chisels might be a tad ostentatious. Also, the skew chisel might be mistaken for a harpoon, or a murder weapon, and police involved. We need a chisel carrier!
Sometimes, I just have too many nearly-completed projects and experiments.
