It’s true. I seriously considered cancelling a £10,000 contract after an AI agent rang me (while I was busy) just to confirm the delivery date.
Do you ever stop and think about how we spend so much of our lives doing housework and life admin and email and trying to live up to our parents' standards and impress our bosses and worrying about our weight and meanwhile we live on a planet where the sky just does this and we're not going to be here forever. And it's not doing this for us, sunsets are just as beautiful whether we're good people or bad people and whether we have good credit scores or clean kitchens.
It was and is one of the hardest things in life for me to learn. To not care so much about "things as they should be" as imposed by others.
Taking a moment to just exist is genuinely a treat (provided you can get your inner voice to lay off for a bit) Having a sky like that helps.
Hope you enjoyed it - and continue to wonder in amazement at the things of nature and beings in our world :)

We are struggling to survive in a tent in Gaza. There is no safe home, no stable income, and often not enough food for my children.

@otherdog Looks great! I like the parallax layers. Perhaps a subtle gradient on them?

@anji That’s a great idea! I am at the boundary of my skill set here but am learning new things and really want to make the game as good as it can be.
Complex software behaving in unexpected and sometimes harmful ways has been a persistent problem since software was invented. The phenomenon used to be called “bugs” or “defects”, but I guess “going rogue” sounds cooler. It also implicitly frames “rogue” behavior as some kind of inexplicable exception, as if software is somehow usually trustworthy. https://www.nytimes.com/2026/09/25/technology/openais-ai-us-government-websites.html?unlocked_article_code=1.EFE.RfLT.x6YBjHa1PMz6
@mattblaze Software is absolutely trustworthy. Stupid computer does precisely what it is told, every time. The problem of course is paying attention to what you are asking it to do.

Today's Low Quality Ad is for this Functional Pin. It's not your fault that society is becoming an unlivable hellhole, so it is perfectly acceptable to lower the bar for being proud of yourself. 2026 functional is equivalent to 1990 exceptional.

@zymurgic I'm queuing for a hotdog, come say hi 😄

At All Things Go, aka Lesbian Cochella, and the Women's National Law Center is distrubuting zines called "Dont be a TERF" and explicitly call out that supporting JKR and Harry Potter is furthering transphobia. You love to see it.

@Edent I'm sure it will be excellent. We saw them do it back in 2019 for the 50th anniversary of the moon landings. Have a great evening.

"Freedom" in the American context has always been a property relation. You are free if you own. You are free if you can buy your way out of consequences. You are free if the law is written for you and enforced by people like you.
The Epstein class is free, not us.
