First moments

When I got out of bed this morning, I felt a chill from the autumn air that had been flowing through the room since yesterday evening. The air was cooled by midnight and would soon be warmed by the burgeoning sun rising over the hills. The seasons are changing. I can feel it...

Parasocial grief. This week we lost a cheerleader. Days before that we lost a professor. A few weeks ago a musician. I knew of these individuals, had never met them, fairly certain they had no idea who I was. I was either a fan of their work, or sympathetic to their struggles...

Latest strange “AI” (LLM) behavior in the #indieweb community: the same entity that showed up a few days ago (for a second time) joined the IndieWeb Slack (a bridge to our IRC) yesterday, introduced itself again, and seemingly engaged in human-like chat behavior.https://chat....

Chuck Tingle and the Internet

Beth Accomando interviewing Chuck Tingle Kelly got us tickets to see Chuck Tingle speak at KPBS San Diego Book Festival. It was a hot day and it was great to peruse the booths and the energy of the folks walking the USD campus was terrific. Aside: I got to tell Kelly (again) that my parents,...

A fine foggy morning. Two surfers argued in the surf. Dumb. But like toddlers they wore themselves out eventually.

handgun: discussed; handgun: lost

We drove to Orange County yesterday. Kelly went to work, and I stole away to the beach at Huntington. I enjoy the scene at Huntington Beach, and I’ve been treated well by the folks in the water each time. Yesterday as I was walking out, in my wetsuit and carrying my swim fins and handplanes,...

Saturday morning

Before I leave this morning, I have to pack some things to read. I picked up a zine and a book on colour and set out to a coffee shop to ease my way into the weekend. I purchased the zine and the book following my reflection on reference works earlier this week, which had me...

A blue and a yellow pedalo on a pebble beach in the sun. The lake in front of dark clouds and mountains.
Last rays of sunshine before the rain started.
