I asked ChatGPT to turn my selfie into a Squishmallow. If I could get a real Squishmallow like this, I'd consider it! I'd get a whole family of them!

I found a candid shot of the perpetrator who caused me to slip down a few steps this morning! That you, Biscuit?!

I'm not sure where I am on this. On the one hand, this has amazing quality and fidelity. On the other hand, we've left Uncanny Valley behind, and I fear for the uncertainty of my sense of reality in the future.

I wasn't expecting that ChatGPT could generate a crossed-eye stereographic image, but here we are.

Biscuit joined our family about six months ago. The SPCA estimated him to be 8 years old. He was freshly neutered when we got him. I'm in love with this little guy, and am so happy he's adapted so well to our home. We love his (Abyssinian?) playful and goofy spirit.

I see there is a bit of buzz going around about The Telepathy Tapes podcast. As an autistic person who discovered spirituality including spiritual communication, I have to wonder whether there is something that just isn't yet understood. Maybe spirit guides really do exist. I'm glad they do for me.

I've been really enjoying creating songs that can express things that represent my own lived experiences. This one about dissociative identity disorder gives me a song with which I can identify.

I enjoy playing with AI tools as they provide access to creativity in places I don't have those skills. I used ChatGPT to come up with a song about a guy hearing voices and coming to terms with it. I then used Suno to turn it into a song, and I love what came out. "I Hear You" youtu.be/g5rOxrnd3Cs

I was among a group of friends discussing resources that we'd had as we were beginning our journey of selves-discovery with dissociative identity disorder. It's hard to find good resources about lived experiences, so for many of us, these creators gave us insight into finding ourselves.

The one thing that keeps coming up with my particular flavor of DID is the occasional, unexpected laugh when there's a pause in the conversation, much to the surprise of those around me. And it's so often a "You had to be there (in my mind)" kind of joke.

I finished mounting all the pinwheels, and it's delightful! www.youtube.com/watch?v=DxH8...

I had a traumatic childhood. I didn't realize it for many years, but I came to feel all the pain eventually through many tears and much screaming. Despite that, I love who I've become, and that's as someone who was shaped by those experiences. I learned a lot the hard way, but at least I learned.

I'm making great progress on this art project/wall background for work meetings. I need a lot more bearings and magnets, though, but it's really looking great so far.

Artists see the world differently. Their art becomes the lens through which others can share their vision.
