Another really personal poem, as I can only seem to write these types. I've been on anti-epilepsy medication for years, which has left me with short-term memory loss. As a writer, it's truly frustrating when I can't remember words.
I have gathered a posy of other men's flowers, and nothing but the thread that binds them is mine own.
-- Michel de Montaigne

"In crafting, there are no mistakes, just unique creations." - Jane Thorn
It is a tool that produces results and has good/useful uses. It should improve our lives, not make us dumber, lazier and be the sole source of knowledge/"creation"
If the trend we see currently on social media, search engines, writing... Is our future, then it is very bleak.
Are people forgetting the very core of what makes our #humanity ? #humans #facism #ai #aiart #populism #aitools #criticalthinking #creativity #aitools #aieverywhere
It's a picture, yes. It's not art. It is a different thing, it serves different purposes. Just like we take photographs for different reasons. Either that was made by a teenager, or by someone that had zero art education and it's worrying. #aiart #creativity #taste #generativeai #ai #artificialintelligence #art
"The ai version looks better" or any similar statement tells me you have no sense of what makes us human, joy, whimsy, or what makes art art and makes us create things. And I disagree it is not the same statement as the one once made for photography. #creativity #art #aiart #ghibli #ghiblistyle #ghibliai #photography #artdiscussion
"Making is not just about creating products; it's about expressing your identity, embracing imperfection, and connecting with a community that values the soul behind the work." - Anonymous
"Just make something, even if it’s laughably bad. Make it yours."

"In the world of creation, your hands are your truest friends. Through them, you give life to what once was imagined." - An artisan's muse
For me, an aquarium is simultaneously a sanctuary, meditation, and a means of self-expression. It inspires, calms, and provides an opportunity to create. #Aquarium #Meditation #Creativity #Sanctuary
Hyperfolk is a contemporary update to traditional folk art. It uses bright colors and digital manipulation to combine old folk imagery with futuristic technology.

Emotional AI Firmware Updates: A Human Upgrade or the Path to Digital Numbness?
Imagine waking up anxious, stressed, or carrying an emotional weight you’d rather not face—and instead of turning to therapy or introspection, you’re offered an “Emotional Firmware Update.” One click, and the discomfort vanishes—replaced by instant calm and contentment.
Tempting? Maybe. But at what cost?
In my latest newsletter, I explore a future that feels increasingly possible: one where artificial intelligence doesn’t just influence how we live—but how we feel.
The question? 
Are we enhancing our lives with AI—or slowly trading away what makes us human?
If you’re someone who enjoys thinking about the intersection of#technology, emotion, and humanity’s next chapter, I invite you to read it—and share it with others who might appreciate the reflection.
Read it here, share it, and please subscribe to it. It is free!!!

How quickly anything can become a drudgery. I have two videos to edit tomorrow plus a t-shirt to design. Is this a hardship? It is not. Is it hanging over my head just a little? Yes it is. You can’t please human beings. They live to be miserable. #Creativity
