Operation Every Book in the Scifi Section of the Library continues. Did not enjoy GENERATION SHIP, a meandering and loose book suffering from uninteresting characters, tepid scifi, and idiot plot. A decent book to pass time on a plane maybe, but not anywhere else.

TIL about a memorial ceremony in Iceland in 2019 to mark the end of a glacier, changing the place name from Okjökull to Ok (jökull = glacier). Uncompromising wording on the bronze plaque:
"This is to acknowledge that we know what is happening and what needs to be done. Only you know if we did it".

BEHOLD THE OLD SPOOD SHAMAN WHOSE WISDOM GOES BEYOND HIS TEEF, WHOSE BEARD REACHES FARTHER THAN HIS LEGS.
Day 6 of my 2025 Favorites: There's a particular oak in a particular spot upon which for some reason I've found an adult male Phidippus richmani every year for the past 3. Little things like this bring me joy. And he looks like that 🥹

If you'te stretched too thin to pay attention, you're vulnerable. If someone slides something subtle into your awareness, you won't notice.
Does it matter? It might not, in the short term, but gosh darn it you want to be able to stay in a state of mind to know when you are being lied to.

Re: everybody getting got by an ai dog video: I want to talk about propaganda in general as well as ai in specific. We are awash in way too much stuff to pay deep attention to and that's absolutely by design.

"Do not pollute the common well."
AI has done precisely that, polluted the information ecology we all live in and draw from. Think about what YouTube was like just 3 years ago. Think about what search was like 5 years ago.
AI pollution is forced down every throat.

this is interesting because American society is super conformist. but the mechanism isn't either shame or guilt, the two classics, but peer pressure, as though we're all permanently in high school. like the same stuff, or be ostracized!

A massive problem today is the uneven distribution of shame. Some of us are running dedicated on-site shame servers 24/7 while others have no access to shame at all, even though they desperately need it. What we need to do is put shame in the cloud

The term 'snowbird' can refer to quite a number of species that hang out in northern areas during the winter. One of our favourites is the Pine Grosbeak. They are a stunning delight when they show up at a feeder, & bring colour and song in return for seed. #birds

Limulus polyphemus - Atlantic horseshoe crab (2023)
I love these guys, they look so cool but are quite harmless. If you ever see one upside down, help it out and flip it over! They're clumsy and aren't good at doing it themselves!

This is wisdom.
When I lived up to the north end of the county, there was a chili and BBQ place a couple of blocks away that I'd walk down to a couple of times a week.
There was a sign on the wall: "No, my chili is not flaming hot. Any damm fool can make things hot. It's much harder to make it taste good."
