“I am at the moment writing a lengthy indictment against our century. When my brain begins to reel from my literary labors, I make an occasional cheese dip.” ― John Kennedy Toole, A Confederacy of Dunces (Ok, it's two sentences, but I smile every time I think of it.)

And if you like scifi that is 85% off... today is the last day to grab Devon's book (you've seen the buzz around it by now, right??) Theft of Fire: Orbital Space #1 for a mere $1.49 Act now, limited time offer, all that-marketing-jazz Devon hates, aka BUY NOW —Christine Eriksen

A recurring theme of these is the metrics we choose to pursue will often predict (and in some cases, fairly directly cause) the pathologies of our programs.

ai ain’t taking everyone’s jobs, let’s be real. what it’s actually doing is making the human touch worth its weight in gold. when a single prompt can spit out a track, live acts and real bands are gonna hit harder than ever, trust me. as prompt-to-video tech blows up, live theater is about to flex its status exclusive, top-tier, luxury vibes only. jazz clubs, underground poetry readings, and the rise of live painting as full blown performance art shows on a mainstream level. i can already picture schools bussing kids in just to catch a glimpse of real human creativity, raw and unfiltered instead of homeworks like watching a movie on netflix or a documentary human made art’s about to go premium, mega luxurious, almost untouchable. handwritten books, custom-made crafts, anything touched by human hands will be the new holy grail of pop culture. give it a decade even less, and that’ll be the game. just some thoughts running through my head lately. feels like today is the perfect time to create art, start today.
