I have been struggling to understand why so many people would gleefully and openly celebrate the theft of writing and art via AI. Then I realize they haven’t ever had something that they personally brought to life, nurtured, loved and was immensely proud of, let alone depended on for paying the bills and feeding their families—they’ve never had anything they needed to protect at all costs, and that leaves me even sadder than I was before.

Care is the opposite of algorithmic detachment and abstraction. - Dan McQuillan

Went to see Sumo yesterday - yet another lovely assessment of masculinity.

Reading, relaxing, and Rockweiller.

I read one fiction and non-fiction in any given moment to keep things balanced — I just finish the Poppy War and Resisting AI.

When I read a book after the wife I get her commentary.

Riding with the Rockweiller in the sidecar on the west side of Central Park.

Poppy insists on pooping in front of BMW showroom at 7:00 AM every morning.

I asked Audrey where the Hindenburg crashed -- she said the cover of Led Zeppelin One.
