'You'll choke too' - an aerial embroidery landscape inspired by all the wildfires happening right now... I'm upset every time I smell smoke outside and somehow we have people starting them maliciously too! But we all breathe the same air so they'll choke too (1/2 - see thread for close-ups)

An embroidery hoop containing a sewn landscape from above. It shows a forest on the right, a line of fire and charred ground with smoke on the left. The smoke is felted wool.

my main concern is the harm rather than the output, so i don't really need to hear a product testimonial from someone who found it useful. because i don't care

I keep seeing posts about ai models like "actually they're good at this thing now!" but once you understand that ai tools are being built by fascists in service of attacks on humanity, whether or not they can generate useable code or do basic searches kind of stops being the main question

man, I really hate that allergy meds make me feel like my brain is suspended in vaseline. I usually just do without, but I caved last night and now I'm stuck in a metaphorical bog today... but at least my nose isn't in overdrive!

A Nine Night For Noxxy, written by Mercedes Deacon, is a beautiful story about a young girl coming to terms with the loss of a pet with the help of her family and a Jamaican traditional sendoff. So happy to have helped bring this to life with the team at Ladybird. Shoutout to my AD Sally Mullaney!

Photo of two copies of A Nine Night For Noxxy in a shipping box, The softcover books are a matte finish with spot gloss on the main character, the cat, and the title. The illustrated picture book cover is titled A Nine Night For Noxxy, written in large gold letters. In small letters above it is the line 'A reassuring story about saying goodbye to a beloved pet'. The illustration is of a little Black girl with beaded braids and two bows, wearing a coat, striped pants and wellies, looking up in delight at the ghostly version of a black cat with white markings leaping over the title. A sparkly trail of magic winds down and along it are the colourful ghosts of other pets, a parakeet, two goldfish, a dog and a rabbit. The background is a deep blue. The girl is excitedly looking up at her cat, lit up by the sparkly trail of light. Inside a gold circle reads 'with a foreword from Trish Cooke', and the names of the author and illustrator at the bottom. Digitally illustrated picture book cover titled A Nine Night For Noxxy. Not a photo of the physical book, but the art file.

This survey is absolutely slanted dogshit. Work your way through the initial questions and give them hell in the part where you can actually give comment. Canada should be spending money to support human workers and human-made work.

Canadian arts and culture folks: the federal government has launched a (methodologically flawed) survey on "the Cultural Sector's readiness for Artificial Intelligence". If you're ready to resist or refuse genAI, here's your chance to let them know. pch.research-recherche.ca/f/s.aspx?lan...
