It's been heartbreaking seeing so many people I know use ChatGPT to generate "caricatures" when I am married to a living, breathing caricaturist. This technology was built off theft. It's soulless & bland. Here's caricatures by @tealcartoons.bsky.social to remind people what human art looks like.

Always so pleased to see that the Hellebores have survived another year in the garden. Gardening in heavy clay soil can be challenging 🌸

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.
