Velvet-purple Coronet, sticking its tongue out at me. At @montezumalodge.bsky.social #Colombia

#birds #hummingbirds
A small, vividly colored hummingbird with iridescent purple and blue feathers perches on a textured branch. Its head is dark, almost black, and it has a long bill and it's sticking its tongue out.

Me and the spider on my balcony have grown a kinship. I tried very quietly to set up patio furniture but I must have disturbed him because he very passive aggressively moved his web away from me. Now I’m mad. He mad. Booty crochet every damn where

My latest piece goes out either Monday or Tuesday next week, it's called "The Era of the Business Idiot." I believe our society is in the thrall of middle management, and it's turned our economy into a series of symbolic gestures between people that don't really know what's going on.
Wheresyoured.at
But that's not what a manager does, right? Management isn't work, it's about thinking really hard and telling people what to do. It's about making the calls. It's about "managing people," and that can mean just about anything, but often means "who do I take credit from or pass blame to, because modern management has been stripped of all meaning other than continually reinforcing power structures for the next manager up. This system creates products for these people, because these people are more often than not the ones in power - they are your boss, your boss' boss, and their boss too. Big companies build products sold by specious executives or managers to other specious executives, and thus the products themselves stop resembling things that solve problems so much as they resemble a solution. After all, the person buying it - at least at the scale of a public company - isn't necessarily the recipient of the final product, so they too are trained (and selected) to make cals based on vibes. I believe the scale of this problem is society-wide, and it is, at its core, a destruction of what it means to be a leader, and a valorization of selfishness, isolationist thinking, turning labor into a faceless resource, which naturally leads to seeing customers in an equally faceless way, their problems generalized, their pain points parts of a powerpoint rather than anything that your company earnestly tries to solve or even really thinks about. People - be they the ones you're paying or paying you - become numbers. We have created - and elevated - an entirely new class of person, the nebulous "manager," and told decades-worth of children that that's what they should aspire to, that the next step from doing a job is for us to tell other people to do a job, until we're able to one day tell those people how to do their job, each rung on the corporate ladder further distancing ourselves from anything that interacts with reality. The real breaking point is fairly simple: the higher…

The Brain Raccoons are stomping around and saying mean things and I feel exactly like this Charles Darwin quote.
An image of Charles Darwin with his quote "I am very poorly today and very stupid and hate everybody and everything.".

Women over 40 do not want 15 friends, we want 6 friends, 2 acquaintances, 3 ex-lovers we occasionally pine for, 2 solid nemeses, 1 animal who understands our soul, and a very important tree.

Been trying out "dag nabbit!" recently as an exclamation, just working it back into the rotation a little. Adding a little Yosemite Sam to the day when things are tough. A touch of disappointed Sam Elliott during trying times. I recommend it.

Which is a surprise, as Miyazaki has long banned Ghibli's films from streaming. As Suzuki told reporters in a March announcement: "First of all, Hayao Miyazaki doesn't know exactly what video streaming services like Netflix are. He doesn't use personal com-puters, he doesn't use smartphones. So when you mention digital distribution to him, he just doesn't get it." He added: "Hayao Miyazaki is currently making a movie but it's taking a really long time. When that happens, it's only natural that it will require a lot of money too. I told him this can cover the production costs for that movie. When I said that, he said "Well, there's nothing I can do then."
