“Cis dude talks about gender” alert. I’ve been thinking a lot about gender recently. I mean a lot. This is not a coming out post. I’m still a straight cis dude. But the more…

Time to post one of my favorite old illustrations. :)
I created it for a group show resolving around botanical visuals. During this time I read a lot about the ISS and how they grew plants in there to test botanical behavior, which also sparked dreams about deep space travels.

That photo of Pertwee and the sonic with the radiating lines is my most vivid memory of the book.

That and how amazing it made all the aliens look. The brilliance of the designs shines through when you can't see the rubber crease every time they move.

I was a fan of the original #Tron in tbe 80s and (perversely for such a visual film) devoured the novelisation by Brian Daley, which I found incredibly satisfying. I read it multiple times.

And yet somehow I have absolutely no interest in the new one. Is it me or is it them? Who knows.

Half the ads on social media look like viral marketing for a Black Mirror episode.

"Loyaltyous" advert. Christmas tree with an orb bauble showing video. "Now you can hang all of your Core Memories on your tree this year".

#Frog #Pratchett

Even its plagues were half-hearted. All self-respecting river kingdoms have vast supernatural plagues, but the best the Old Kingdom had been able to achieve in the last hundred years was the Plague of the Frog*.

*It was quite a big frog, however, and got into the air ducts and kept everyone awake for weeks.

Indignant ghost: "It's pronounced SLIMM-er."

Merriam-Webster @merriam-webster.com · 2d

Here’s a primer on ‘primer.’

It’s pronounced ‘PRIMM-er’ if you mean “a small book” or “a short informative piece of writing.”

It’s pronounced ‘PRY-mer’ if you mean “an initial coat of paint.”

As AI gets more realistic, reality heads in the opposite direction. It's niche differentiation.
