"The White House isn't sure whether Trump actually had a phone call or just imagined it" is where we are on the dementia scale now.
An amazing new Trump controversy, Part II of II:

- Saturday afternoon: Trump says he spoke to Bolsonaro the night before and planned to see him “in the very near future”

- Monday afternoon: The Trump White House isn’t sure whether Trump actually had the conversation he referenced two days earlier
White House hedges on Trump’s curious claim about his call with Brazil’s Bolsonaro White House hedges on Trump’s curious claim about his call with Brazil’s Jair Bolsonaro
Did the Republican president talk to Bolsonaro as the Brazilian plotted to escape? Trump said yes, but the White House isn’t so sure.

Friendly reminder that striking workers are asking you not to patronize ANY Starbucks store.

If you're traveling this week, your airport definitely has other options. Zero reason to even think about crossing a picket line!

You can make art.

The biggest step isn't getting good at art, it's being willing to make art that doesn't match the idea of "good art" in your head.

Making a lot of imperfect art is an essential step toward making perfect art; a counterproductive goal you shouldn't have anyway.

Just make art.

Again, there’s a group of people to seem to think the end goal here is to create a bunch of highly regarded, in-demand people who write great prompts, rather than the actual “executive types in some words and gets a result they’re reasonably satisfied with.”
AI art guys try to sell the tech as a great time-saver/labor-equalizer but also insist it requires LOTS of skill and work. It’s a funny negotiation that gets to the emptiness in how some people see art. Hyper outcome-focused but unsure of how to measure that artistic outcome except by time invested.

We’re up to $250! (Unless my math is wrong, which is possible.)

Also, since you can’t send images by DM, you can either post it here or just DM me the amount you donated and the name it’s under.
Still plenty of time to get your donation to help Books with Pictures matched.

The Epstein bill is headed to Trump’s desk as we speak.

So, what now? Well, a lot of panic, it seems. I have seen every single possible worst case scenario all over social media in the last hour, so let’s go through this step by step. My only request, read the whole thing before commenting.
