there's only one use of AI that I'd REALLY like to see...

"you appear to not being using any of the AI features on your phone. Would you like to remove them all and any associated data that we've scraped without your permission?"

that's it. AI to detect AI refusniks which then deletes itself.

Late afternoon near sunset photo of the Dixon Lane - Meadow view big pasture that is a mixture of sagebrush and grass ecosystem in the foreground. Middle ground has a few trees, along with one big round tree that has the last of autumnal leaves. Background is dark mountains with a smattering of snow at the peaks. Said peaks are also swatted in clouds. Big late day blue sky with layers of different clouds. Photo by Jenifer Hanen on Friday, Nov. 14, 2025 in Bishop, California.

I don't know who the artist is but the dog model is the best, so is the painting. Happy Saturday night!

Sometimes when I have writer's block, I draw out a potential scene with the people as birds... from 2017 when I was working on A Quiver Full.

Might be Mars over Mt. Tom, it might also be a plane. Late twilight tonight in Bishop, Calif.

Our job as Team Human is not to succumb to the zero-sum mentality of the wealthy.

They’re the ones who have given up on prosperity.

They are living the nightmare.

I’ve spent today painting an icon of a mouse while listening to the rain drumming down on the studio roof. Tomorrow it’s whiskers and a plant between its paws.

Hello Fall Back Time change,

It feels like it is after 9pm. I am ready for bed. But it is, in fact, only 6:40pm.

This will go badly.

My niece told me if one her high school teachers catches them using AI on a paper, they are required to write a letter to a family who lives near a data center to say sorry for using their water to do their homework.

Emma the Amazing has hit the nail on the head. I like to write first in my notebook with a nice dark pen, then I take the ideas to TextMate to flesh out and edit as a txt file. I only take it to online text editor (never use Word) at the very last stage to format.

Close up of two white hibiscus flowers with scarlet red inner petals and big cream colored stamens or possibly inflorescences. In the larger hibiscus flower is a bee, all we see is bee butt sticking out as the bee sips away at nectar or gathers pollen. Photo taken by Jenifer Hanen in Bishop, Calif. on October 25, 2025.

Oct 2025 first snow scene at the Silver Lake Campground in June Lake, California. Foreground is a paved single lane road cleared of snow. The middle ground is a line of yellow autumnal aspen trees and occasional dark green pine tree with a white small motor home. And the background is the majestic Eastern High Sierra Nevada Mountains covered in a new layer of snow with a sunny sky. Photo by Jenifer Hanen.

The bsky.app website is no longer rendering when logged in on Firefox for Mac since the 143.0.4 update.

My 57 year old eyes would much rather look at Blue Sky on my laptop's monitor than on my phone. Yes, I whitewashed it on all the things plus did the hard rest. Still no go.
