I had this idea a while ago, of an animated series of The Phantom, in vein of classic Ghibli stuff, and Lupin III. Sky pirates, secret brotherhoods, trains, bi-planes and loyal animal sidekicks. C'mon, this makes itself.

I'm loathing the ai music thing. At first listen, some of it is pretty good- but it is hitting all the data points for things you've liked in the past. It is in no way innovative or creating something new. Its like those versions of "not quite Simpsons" that are derivative, but not as radical.

So what did Santa bring you?

Gift-giving here on #theMicrofarm will wait 'til the Grankiddo can be here, though the Kiddo said "Check your email, Dad. . . "

She bought tickets for us to see two of my singer-songwriter heroes, #LyleLovett and #JohnHiatt. She grew up listening to them. What a peach!

I really miss it — nothing since has been anywhere near as good whole-family viewing — but I thought the ending was perfect (the Christmas-Special ending, not the ‘fake’ end-of-series-ending), so I'm accepting of it.

The making-of book is excellent:

🤩 I often use the #lensbaby #velvet lenses for models and portraits. Even when the pictures don't "look like" classic lensbaby, there is something unique about them. Recent portrait of Karina is the Velvet 85, seen especially by the way the hair blends into the background.
