Saw some delightful lenticular clouds floating above the Olympic mountains today.

Seattle has some great scenery. We see these kinds of clouds often over Mt Rainier, but I’ve not seen them over the Olympics before.

“distillery raises money using crypto” is … a real thing?!? 🥴 (via seattle Inno)

Personally, I don’t care about my whisky having “exposure to the biggest opportunities disrupting the asset class.”

Modern day street view from about the same point.

Now there are: trolley buses, a light rail station just over the bridge, two nearby bike trails, an intersection with a major state highway a block away, and lots of cars.

TLDR: AI-generated news erases women’s achievements.

Recently a woman was appointed as Interim Executive of King County, WA. She is the first woman in that role & local news mentioned it.

I then saw this AI “news” account generated an article…repeatedly calling the exec he/him/his.

The #pwhl hockey game in Seattle had great energy!

Unsure how they decided that Boston would be considered the home team, though.

I took a vacation and United showed ads for Jira in my entertainment & the airport had ads for Anthropic.

Can’t escape #tech.

Visited Deception Pass last weekend but the most important part is that I took some 0.5x photos of my dog there 🥰

When office decorations go not quite right.

“Huh, I wonder what these old books are, that are being used as office decoration?”
“Oh, an anthology of works of Joseph Conrad”
“The WHAT of the Narcissus?!”
