New York 2027. I receive notice in the mail that it is time for my mandatory service as the bodega cat for the nearest city run grocery store. I put all my clothes in a locker and prepare to spend the next week sleeping on an unopened floor case of Fabuloso.

Was introduced to Bill Moyers the way I imagine lots of folks were -through his interviews with Joseph Campbell. But I came to really appreciate his journalism. His show NOW on PBS was exceptional.

Amongst the unbelievable amounts of bullshit the New York Times is unloading today, they do have a neat lil’ feature on Mamdani’s wife, Rama, an illustrator and animator. Including a link to her website: www.ramaduwaji.com

I’m not a New Yorker, but I did visit once specifically to see a Laurie Anderson show, which I think bestows some kind of honorarium.

Standing in line to pick up meds with a very fragrant wheel of Camembert in my bag. If anyone asks, I’m treating necrosis.

Nipples on the batsuit were a punchline, but it works really well as a heroic device both by evoking the mythic relationship to hoplite armor and by Schumacher being the one superhero director willing to actually acknowledge the sexual energy that exists somewhere in all this nonsense.

I thought 28 Years Later was a fantastic movie, but I can also completely understand others not clicking with it at all. It’s been a while since I’ve seen a movie, at least a big summer popcorn movie, with such precise emotional attunement.

It was stupid, obvious, and built on a frighteningly solid foundation of a nation wanting revenge. But there was no AI social media shitposts, so this is indeed stupider.

I think about this juxtaposed against any other creative endeavor. Like if I just stated as a matter of course, obviously I use ai to draw hands. I would get so much deserved shit.

Watching the original Lilo & Stitch with my kid and the watercolor backgrounds are so gorgeous. Singular even when 2D animation was the standard.

I was sifting through all the neglected emails from the kid’s schools which is how I learned one of their children worked at my son’s Montessori. I had been thinking how unbelievably horrible this would be for them, but this small context just reignited my fury all over again.

When people say Bluesky is failing, I think they’re specifically talking about the lack of salty sea dog illustrations on the site. And I’m here to help remedy that.
