He's been doing mosaics like this for a while. (I followed up on the one in the top illustration some while ago, when I first ran into it online. I think I remember discovering that the town in Surrey where it originally appeared has removed it: no idea why.)
How digital systems shape which political alternatives become thinkable
Mill’s defense of free speech has three implications that matter here. A true opinion held without challenge becomes a dead dogma. A false opinion may contain part of the truth. And a person who knows only her own side does not really know even that side; she has a conclusion without the discipline that makes it a judgment.
For Mill, facing genuine opposition educates us. A civic tool need not dignify every claim, but it must keep serious disagreement strong enough to teach. …
AI can serve Mill’s standard. A well-designed assistant can make the strongest objection easier to find, translate unfamiliar arguments without caricature, and show why a position that sounds absurd from one socioeconomic perspective may seem urgent from another. The liberal approach to knowledge is not to seek balance for its own sake, but to seek access to substantive arguments that a citizen might otherwise avoid or miss.
AI can also subvert Mill’s lesson through a falsely balanced answer. A nominally fair-minded model may present “both sides” of a question while quietly choosing in advance which of several positions will be deemed the two relevant sides, which institutions speak for them, and which objections are too marginal to include. An artificial balance can make a narrowed field look complete.

Today's other castle is a little more castle-like of the two. Built in 2007, in Weston, CO, it has 4bds, 5ba, 5,856sqft, $985k (Zillow's est.: $1,068,300)
In this one, you enter directly into the main living room surrounded by a mezzanine. How do you heat this space?
The stairs are on the side at the far end of the room. There's also a fireplace.
They all have the honey-colored wood that I don't like. It's so 80s, and they used it well into the early 2000s.
So, the kitchen is on the 2nd floor.
There's a small table on the mezzanine. Maybe this is supposed to be the dining room.
And, a dining nook in the kitchen.
The family room.
There's a hot tub up the stairs, so what's that thing in the floor? It appears to be empty.
Then spiral stairs come down to this tower office.
And, it looks like they go up to a 2nd turret office.
Very large primary bedroom suite.
The ensuite is very big.
The other bedrooms are oversized.
There are a variety of baths. 5 of them.
Different bedroom styles, also.
This one has a sitting area.
Here's another style bath.
A turret reading room.
Also a home gym.
The rooftop deck is nice. It even has a chess board.
i'm never leaving this fucking site i stg i love you all.
OK
final one
for all the marbles,
this one doesn't have an illustration bc i think it was just a kids novel but i haven't been able to find ANYTHING about it on my occasional internet queries:
kids is staying with his (grandmother?) in the woods and she warns him not to look a fox in the eyes bc they're tricksy and will swap places with you. obviously that's the first thing the little boy does and gets body snatched by a fox who uhhhh proceeds to pig out with his new little boy human hands and the boy has to trick the fox into looking him in the eyes again to switch back...
thats all i got, it's an older book i wanna say from the 60's?? 70's?? kinda the same jist of "Little Rascal"
(7/30/26) The Red Cross just declared the second US blood crisis in its history.
Summer sees both a drop off in donations and, at least for our trauma center, a spike in traumas. Trauma centers across the US are in danger of running out of blood for our trauma patients TODAY, which is very scary but, unlike much of the other scary national news coming across our screens these days, is something you can help fix immediately and directly.
We need ASAP donations of blood, for people to spread the word, and for manager types to help facilitate others' donations. All blood types are needed, but universal donor blood (type O) is especially dire.
Many things that previously made people ineligible have been rolled back. If you previously thought you were ineligible, please consider checking current guidelines!
While O- is the most dire need as it can be safely given to anyone in an emergency, all types are needed! Our emergent release blood is being pulled for patients who have a high chance of death if they don't get blood within the hour. Once they're stabilized, they can have their type confirmed and get blood of a specific, matching type released to them so that O- can go to the patients who need it most.
Canada is also in a blood shortage, not just the US. Even if you're not in the USA or Canada, maybe check locally, especially if it's summer where you are.
The most basic, intractable fact about mental illnesses is that you simply cannot willpower your way out of them. The only exceptions to this rule are the ones I have, which continue to disable me due to lack of determination and other grave personal flaws

I’ve been meaning to ask this for a while and I am sorry if it comes off oddly. How do you navigate an intelligence gap in a relationships? I have dated men of equivalent or greater intellect and found them inadequate in other ways, but when I have dated men less intelligent than me I become frustrated with them and their insecurities bleed into the relationship. You and Ship (or the personas you perform publicly) seem content. How do you avoid getting frustrated? [cont.]
"[part 2] I mean no insult to Ship of course. They seem very attentive and I used to really enjoy their detective skits. From the contents of your blogs they come across as so much less intellectually curious that it surprises me that you are compatible. Do you get adequate intellectual stimulation from other relationships/is that not a need for you in a partner/are my standards unrealistic?"
i have no idea how to respond to this. we have all been in absolutely helpless hysterics about it for the last thirty minutes. this is by far the most deranged ask I have received about my personal life on this website in my fifteen year career on here, and that is saying quite a lot
i can't decide which part of this message is my favorite, but if I HAD to say, probably the part where you appear to be entirely in earnest about this? in almost any other case I would assume a message like this was an elaborate way of insulting me or my partner or both, but I really genuinely don't think that's the case for you, which is actually MORE confusing. its just so compelling. there's so many layers here. i want to hire someone to cross stitch this for me so I can hang it in our living room. i can hear ship intermittently breaking out in peals of hysterical laughter in the kitchen
i read the juniper tree by barbara comyns in december and augustus by john williams in april and. actually i dont know i just keep thinking about those two and they’re two of my favorite books i’ve ever read and nothing else is measuring up so that it’s hard to be that into any other books
There's really this strong temptation that everyone has which basically says "to have interiority is to be like me; ordinary people are surface everywhere." And this manifests in different ways in different spaces, and becomes really pronounced when you cluster together with similar people. So tumblr users often act like straight people don't have any interiority because it helps you feel the deepening of social bonds with other gay people. This happens professionally too. I think it was Summer or Sharks who was saying that programming people think that intelligence is just being really good at writing code. Not surprising but very strange to me! I am (equally ridiculously) used to thinking that intelligence is being really good at philosophy, having command of a lot of sources that you can use creatively, etc. This reflects a kind of dynamic on tumblr and reddit. On reddit to have interiority is to be a science guy and on tumblr to have interiority is to be a humanities girl (and the dynamic is gendered in exactly this way). And I think there is something dangerous about habitually regarding other people as automatons. It's good to have people outside of your niche to remind you that other people from different walks of life are quite deep and complicated. They are full of love and fine grained attention to things you never thought to care about. And I think a lot of people go through life thinking of themselves as perpetually victimized by basically empty people rather than having genuine confrontations with full, genuine people who are committed to subtle, complex and real values, who have detailed and intricate histories, and who have a bond to you that you might never quite fully understand. But we rarely even try at understanding these things. We just decide that they're stupid and ridiculous and unreasonable.

[“As a practitioner and teacher of conflict transformation and somatic shadow integration working primarily within a social change and activist context, I’m often confronted with the question of whether trying to move beyond polarized ways of thinking and act from a politic of revolutionary love is a betrayal of my other values. Many of my students and readers worry, and understandably so, that the foundational ideas of conflict transformation, depolarization, and radical love might inevitably lead us to make unethical compromises, or to lose sight of important truths.
To put it more plainly, famed anti-apartheid activist Bishop Desmond Tutu said that “If you are neutral in situations of injustice, then you have chosen the side of the oppressor,” and the risk that many activists feel when we center ideas like “radical compassion,” “revolutionary love,” and “transformative justice,” is that these ideas open the door to neutrality that supports oppression. The fear is that loving everyone means that we don’t take sides, and in not taking sides, what we are really doing is supporting the violence of the status quo.
This is a central tension inside of social justice-oriented communities - which also tend to deeply value love and compassion, not to mention the political goals of prison and police abolition - and as a social movement mediator, I see it articulated again and again in almost every activist organization I work with. Here are some common examples of questions that people ask me about this topic:
Doesn’t making space for multiple perspectives/multiple truths support the spread of harmful ideas?
Does working to “depolarize” intense ideological conflicts turn us into centrists - and cause us to betray the most oppressed groups? Is depolarization just compromising and saying “let’s agree to disagree” about atrocities? Does depolarization lead us into making false equivalencies - such as saying that the anxiety of privileged people over losing unfair advantages is equal to the harms experienced by oppressed populations?
Does acknowledging that perpetrators of harm are also often victims of harm who have their own needs justify the suffering they have caused and de-center the voices of the people they’ve hurt?
Does saying that people who have experienced oppression or violence can also commit oppression or violence (“hurt people hurt people” etc), are you accusing oppressed people of being “the same as the oppressors”? Isn’t this victim-blaming?
These are extremely sensitive questions that are born of legitimate concerns, and indeed, I believe that the rhetoric of “love,” “transformative justice/conflict transformation,” “non-dual thinking,” “multiple truths,” and so on can certainly be used to excuse, disguise, or exacerbate violence, abuse, and exploitation. However, I also believe this is the result of a serious misunderstanding, or sometimes even the willful corruption, of the ideas that I hold so dear.”]
