Finally switching from Spotify (good riddance) and the unexpected side effect of importing all the playlists and saved songs over the decades I’ve used them is finding old gems I completely forgot about.

Good Job Chicago! Memphis, your up next. Arguably a harder fight ahead without your governor’s support, but we believe in you.

Systematic attribution of heatwaves to the emissions of carbon majors - Nature Climate change made 213 historical heatwaves reported over 2000–2023 more likely and more intense, to which each of the 180 carbon majors (fossil fuel and cement producers) substantially contributed.

no time to post properly about this but yeah - the companies, governments and state-owned orgs that extract the stuff are the first in a chain of events that lead to Earth's atmosphere becoming deadlier, and bear a necessary but insufficient amount of responsibility for who gets hurt

Ask and ye shall receive

What a lovely morning with @unstarvedartist.bsky.social

I give the Midwest a bad wrap with regards to scenic views. Often just takes a good storm to show its best colors.

The world spoke yesterday, from the small town of Little Rock, Arkansas with some of my earliest memories, to this grand city of Chicago. It felt like a turning point. And for the first time in a long time, I felt truly proud to be an American.

Had the pleasure of shooting some portraits of @pawschicago.bsky.social older residents in hopes of getting these sweet souls a home. Honestly amazed every one of them hadn’t been scooped up yet.

Man I can’t wait; preordered the week you announced it.

So concisely put

Highlighted text form THE NEW YORKER The task that generative A.I. has been most successful at is lowering our expectations, both of the things we read and of ourselves when we write anything for others to read. It is a fundamentally dehumanizing technology because it treats us as less than what we are: creators and apprehenders of meaning. It reduces the amount of intention in the world.

Reminds me of this eternal Ted Chiang banger-

Un immense livre en train d’être brûlé par des petits personnages avec marqué « I hope everyone realizes that scrubbing historical references from web sites is no different than burning books »

Good Night World

Doing my first short film with a producer as well, holy shit do they get a bad wrap!

Feels like co-ops are the only sustainable future for creative industries. Shared resources reduces risk and limited control over creative identities and IP.

Your latest looks always make me think “maybe bowling leagues are actually pretty hot…”

Taking a poll, is this too much effort?

Cannot wait. It’s looking great!

One of the few pieces I directed, instead of DPed

Little 30 second spot for an STL painting and restoration service i made back in 2021

Surprisingly haunting beauty found in a small town in Michigan back in 2021

I don’t know about videos, but there’s a great server I play on once in a while called near vanilla that is all adults ran by some of the kindest souls I’ve met

Slow film season is for networking, pre-production, and learning new skills. The skill i'm taking on is HTML, CSS & Javascript to build something for the local film community.
