  Saw a bus wrapped with an ad that just said, “Goop Kitchen” over a salad or vegetables or something. I wish we didn’t have so many gullible people but also am sorry I recognized the font treatment of those two words. :/

  Paid $69 for gas yesterday.

  Graphic design is my passion. Really wondering how this canvas print in a hospital came together.

  The person who cuts my hair—who’s marginalized and targeted by fascists—mentioned he should look something up on “Claude.” I sighed but there wasn’t room to push back in the moment. Normies don’t get how these tools support oppression, often their own.

  My keyboard started dying at our almost-final rehearsal for Bowie/Prince. Some of the sounds don’t work, some do. One button kept turning itself on after an intermittent time—within a few seconds—after I turned it off. 🙄 The interface still works in general; backing it all up now before I take it apart.

  Friday, I play Bowie and Prince songs in San Francisco. You dance or absorb the moment in contemplation. Tickets have been selling, I think this will be a good show. I hope a big Mastodon group goes and can talk about the best Linux distribution between the two sets.

  Verge spends 45 minutes talking about all the numbers and can’t* simply connect this to: Ellisons don’t care about losing their or others’ money. Money is imaginary to them. It’s about capturing mainstream media for themselves and the state. Why is this so hard? Verge reveals more about itself than its subjects. *After skimming manually, I searched for “Trump” and “right” in the transcript. None of their mentions connected to anything political. https://mastodon.social/@verge/11625623725507441...

  Tennis commentators using the word “ladies” a few times. I have never heard them say “gentlemen.”

  Little girl in soccer stadium with bedazzled shirt that says “USA.” I thought it said “ICE” and now I can’t unsee it, I’m doing a They Live apparently.

  “AI discovers rules of an ancient board game” is a huge part of laundering “AI” for the public. They had some algorithms try variations of known ancient rule sets on a newly discovered board design. At best they got possibilities to play, no “discovery.” And humans created the original game; who knows if they did something novel, different than contemporaries? Every article without this critical edge is just marketing. https://mastodon.social/@arstechnica/116160125699357483

  In about two weeks, the Bay Resistance group is having another big training event, this time in SF. I went to the Oakland one, I think their first, last year and found it an accessible way to learn, meet people, and get funneled into local groups. If you’re wondering how to meet this moment, this is a good starting place. https://www.bayresistance.org/events/bay-area-mass-meeting-training-non-cooperation-may-day-beyond

  On April 10, I’m playing Bowie and Prince songs at Rickshaw Stop in SF. If we rock hard enough together, maybe we can heal the rift in our reality, for at least a moment.
