This morning we went to see an exhibition by the wonderful Margot from watercolorpatterns (watercolourpatterns.com/), and it's just insane the precision, dedication and just sheer amount of care and detail she puts into every single one of her watercolors.
And it's all just this wonderfully enthusiastic lady doing everything herself!

VOTE EARLY THIS WEEKEND
Good morning. If you live in a state where you can vote early or vote by mail, why not vote this weekend?
Check your state: cbsnews.com/news/map-early-vot…
Voting early is the best thing you can do to help Harris. It establishes a winning narrative which undermines polling manipulation by biased GOP pollsters. It also motivates our team and demoralizes them. Right now, with more than 10 million votes already banked, Dems are up by >1.5 million votes.
VOTE!
Map shows which states offer early voting and mail-in ballots for the 2024 election
Weeks before the 2024 election, early voting by mail or in person will be available in most states — here's a map with more information about early voting options.CBS News
Tim Walz is not "redefining masculinity." Tim Walz is redefining *white masculinity*.
Trump does not have a big lead with men voters. Trump has an *absolutely massive lead* with *white men voters*.
70% of the NFL is Black. 90% of those Black men vote Dem. More Black men than white women think the environment is important. Black men support masking to prevent the spread of Covid. Black men are more likely to support women's reproductive rights. Etc, etc.

Football coach and cheerleader: How Tim Walz is defining masculinity in 2024
With gender central to the campaign, Democratic VP nominee Tim Walz is taking a different approach to masculinity compared to bro-ness and aggression., USA TODAY (USA TODAY)
The reason this view is so discordant is that so many people's view of Black men is based on gangsta rap - base, aggressive, violent.
Which is funny since, as I learned from a post of yours from many months ago, gangsta rap is more popular among white people than it is among Black people.
@davidnjoku it took me a while but entirely I finally clued into how media portrays black men. Once you start seeing it, it's perversive.
How they show a mug shot if one is available by default. White guy criminals get yearbook photos. words like thug get used a lot. White guys get discussions of their lost future, black guys get only discussions of the crime.
Someone benefits if we're all afraid of black men. It's bullshit. And a lot so called liberals buy into it too.

Pues acaba de salir un estudio al respecto y adivinad qué: no solo no reducen la mortalidad sino que aumentan el riesgo de varices y trombosis venosa profunda.

Speaking of #MyAdoredDaughter this morning... I don't know if I ever posted this photo.
This is ... my daughter? This is how she looks like, exactly - a beautiful, young person with long legs, and wonderful hair. And she keeps telling me "OMG, we look so alike, we could be twins..."
#Trans #Enby #NonBinary #TransJoy #EnbyJoy #NonBinaryJoy #Selfie
...
... but no, this is not a photo of her, this is a selfie of me reflected in a window. When I saw myself reflected in that window, I had to take a selfie and send it to her and she was absolutely amazed at how similar we look now, really, like twins, everything, the form, hair, posture, arms, legs, ... only her face is slightly different (and way younger, obviously 🥰
@Marco TBH, she resembles my wife more than her mother (my wife isn't her mom), but she looks more or less exactly like me. So the photo above could really be me or her, if I didn't tell you who that person is on the photo and you'd see us next to each other, you couldn't tell who that was.
But, and that's the fun part, whenever she is visiting us and we three, her, my wife and me, go out for a walk, people are 100% sure she is our daughter, because she has nearly nothing from her biological mom, but some really interesting similarities with my wife.
In my own case, I have half-half, i.e. about half of me resembles my father, and half my biological mother (as far as I can remember, and I have one single photo of her).
Then, it is even more interesting that you three look so alike.

in reply to Matt Campbell • • •I suppose the whole process, and my own mind, is still contaminated because I initially used an LLM. I can think of the following things that remain from my usage of Claude:
- The use of FFV1 as a lossless video codec. Presumably I would have found that in the FFmpeg documentation if I had really looked.
- The pixel format conversion to yuv420p to fix compatibility problems. Claude gave me that one for the MP4 version, and then I also applied it to WebM.
- The use of 256 Kbps for AAC.
