It’s #Caturday and Tilly is being ridiculous. And also asleep. #CatsOfMastodon
The Ethics of Fake Guitar, by Adam Neely.
"The Sound of Rain", Scotland (2024).
From an early morning scout down on a loch shore, I initially went to see what these small ponds would look like facing in the complete other direction. When I approached on foot, I came over a small crest and was suddenly presented with gorgeous glowing light, the sound of soft rain on the water's surface, a perfectly framed mountain, and a fragment of ancient woodland.

The friendly farm cat seemed to think I needed grooming (and she’s probably not wrong) 😊
AI is one of the most horrific risks to human civilization in history. NOT because some imaginary super intelligent AI would take over the world, but because Big Tech CEOs are using generative AI to utterly destroy the ability of anyone to trust information. These billionaire CEOs -- who Trump accurately says are "kissing his ass" -- are "poisoning the well" of our information society, while decimating their workforces, screwing society, and smiling all the way to the bank.
A couple of nights ago it came to me in a dream - Samus doing the Akira slide but in her morph ball form. Naturally, I had to bring it to life and into the world :p
I’m proud to be joining @Mastodon’s Board of Directors to guide and support this important platform.
I believe that #Mastodon and the #Fediverse represent some of the most important advancements in social networking design and technology. They have the potential to reverse the harms wrought by the monolithic social media platforms of yesterday.
But even more than that, Mastodon and the Fediverse can be so much more than what we are against. We have so much potential. I believe in all of our power to build and change the world. We start by building and convening in healthier online communities because our strength together is far more than the sum of our differences. I believe in building technologies that help bring out the best in humanity; I believe in the amazing things we can do and be when we work together.
I love Mastodon. I love what we are and what we will be. Now let’s build a better world together 💞
In case you're wondering about Mastodon / Kallax compatibility
No need to wait for #Caturday for cat photos; today is #NationalTabbyDay! Do you have a tabby? Brag on them in the comments!
The tabby-esque beauty in the 1st image is one of my two furbabies; the orange tabby in the 2nd image was a distinguished gentleman I encountered on a winery tour in rural Alberta.

The trial of the people accused of cutting down the tree at Sycamore Gap is in progress: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/cvg93k0950pt
They took videos and photos of themselves doing it, which the prosecution have presented. How stupid!
Secret Panel HERE 😤 https://tapas.io/episode/1693440
Canadians using Twitter/X are being bombarded by misleading right-wing posts designed to boost Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre and tarnish the reputation of Mark Carney.
The FT’s analysis finds a growing volume of that misinformation is coming not from Russia or China, but the United States.
