Charging

Synchronized update

Life is reduced to charging devices
Damned to eternal update hell
Bitcoin indulgences ring in virtual coffers
But no souls spring from the depths of our self-made electronic purgatory
Enslaved by our devices
Can we ever learn to breathe again?

Half moon at sunset

Sunset

You all’s souls may be trapped in a self-made cyber purgatory, but I’m just beeing. Just sayin’!

Moon strays farther from Mars and Venus.

A Change of Scene

Sunrise as seen from the same as it ever was scene.

Tristan’s funky chickens at the Solstice party. Chickens may be fowl, but they know how to party.

Drama in the southern sky.

Orange in the western sky.

Venus and the moon riding a black dragon.

Happy Solstice!

Spunk: “Bah, Solstice humbug! The stinking day lasts too stinking long on stinking Solstice!”

Venus and the sliver moon at dust again.

Night sky looking east.

Sol the orange and black striped beetle: “I love Solstice and having a long day to lounge in the daisies!”

Night sky looking west.

Night sky looking north.

Night Sky Looking south.

Degenerate AI

Sunset no AI

The beta version of Adobe Photoshop has Generative AI, which I tested. For those of you who are familiar with my music videos using images generated by AI image generators based on my lyrics, the AI-compiled images were more degenerate, on the edge of profligate, than engendered. The results are not much better in Photoshop (beta).

This image is the best result by asking PS Beta to add a UFO.

I asked for a horse, a white horse, and a black horse. The black ram was the best of the three choices that PS Beta offered for a white horse.

PS Beta produced the unbearable likenesses of planets — Jupiter, Saturn, and Mars from left to right. It did okay on the Milkyway.

PS Beta produced fairly bearable likenesses of hummingbirds.

Like A Bowl Of Strawberries

Silver thinks life is like a bowl of strawberries.

We remodeled the kitchen at the office this week. It all started Tuesday when I removed the cabinets in the storeroom so we could move the cabinets from the kitchen to the storeroom. Jake and I took out the lower cabinets in the kitchen and installed them in the storeroom, and then replaced the hot water shut-off in the kitchen. The new kitchen cabinets were installed on Wednesday. I installed a new, deeper sink and a new dishwasher. We have a new kitchen at the office.

Half moon and clouds this morning.

Spunk: “Life ain’t no stinking bowl of strawberries. It’s more like a stinking bowl of birdies!”
