square 2x2 image collage: unphotogenic flour tortillas 1) being rolled out, 2) cooked on a griddle, 3) piled in a kitchen towel and 4) sitting on a plate with black beans, red rice, roast squash, and tofu scramble.
my fourth of july tradition in recent years is making tortillas, beans, and rice at home. i always try to do everything by hand the way my grandma would do; it's a time suck but well worth it.
not the best or best-looking this year, but comfort food nonetheless. this time around i threw in roasted summer squash, peppers, and zucchini, as well as some leftover tofu scramble.

Grandma would be proud. I can say this because I am a bona fide grandpa.
I think they look fantastic!

A single-take, one-shot, 7:40 scene of a traffic jam caused by a fatal wreck, as seen in Jean-Luc Godard's 1969 comedy "Week-End."
The beautiful camera-dolly work must have been insanely tedious to set up, and the camera passes a fine variety of extremely European rolling stock and aggrieved-motorist actors, as well as a healthy dose of very, very French oddité.
It's really kind of batshit.

So many interesting cars.
It really is a bonkers scene, it's so long that it goes from amusing to bonkers to wow is this still happening to bonkers to poignant before it's done. A real hit parade of beautiful (and not all that safe) car design.
@wjcstp I had the 2-door of that Volvo, a grueling story of costly endurance I’ll share should we ever meet over beer or coffee.

Nostalgia for when I was 8 and graphic design consisted solely of "this font looks cool"
I still miss WordPerfect

It's legitimately funny that Apple chose the name "San Francisco" as their modern system font.

"Oh no! Another hideous generative AI flyer. Looks like they:
-Don't care about the harm to the planet and our drinkable water
-Devalue human artists and creativity
-Are fine with theft
-Lined a billionaire's pocket instead of hiring a local artist
-Wanted everyone to become more lazy, stupid and misinformed
How Embarrassing"

What's really wild is how many art events I've seen do this and it automatically looks cheap and amateurish before you take the larger issues into account.
Example: an event for Salvation Mountain, the folk art project by the late Leonard Knight.

Dazed and Confused
I thought I would go back in time for tonight's movie watching, Dazed and Confused (1993).
After this I might watch Fast Times and Ridgemont High. They just don't make films like this anymore.

Fossanova Abbey. What a name. Now I've got this image stuck in my head of Bob Fosse doing the Bossanova in monk's robes.
Hot priests are driving around in your area with articles of sainthood in the passenger seat. Dial 0800 HOLY GHOST

Went berry picking this morning.
alt text
Every year during the early summer, my youngest and I went berry picking. We have driven into the surrounding counties, we have picked in the rain (including this morning). And we have our cleanup and storage down to an art.
Sadly, we were incapable of picking strawberries this season. My daughter had a life altering surgery and I had walking pneumonia just before and during the season opened here. While she’s still not back at work, her fiancée joined us this year in picking blueberries. It was just lovely.
It was a light rain, 20C and no bugs. We picked a little over a peck (~10 L) and delighted in hearing all of the wee ones there make exclamations regarding the size and sweetness of the berries that they were alternately picking for the basket and eating.
And, yes, I was one of those who purchased this shirt from a member of this fine collection of electronic contributors.

Around these parts we call that hand movement the "Hopoate finger"
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki...
During a 2001 game with the North Queensland Cowboys, Hopoate inserted fingers in three players' buttocks and anuses. The first incident occurred during the seventh minute of play. The matter was referred to the rugby league judiciary on 28 March. Hopoate was suspended for 12 weeks for what one commissioner described as "disgusting, violent, offensive behaviour".
Hopoate claimed, in front of the panel of judges, that he was just trying to give all three players a wedgie with his fingers, denying he had done anything wrong and that he was "a great believer in what happens on the field should stay there"

Based on this: https://mltshp.com/p/1RSMD
I put a copy here: https://drive.google.com/file...
It's almost all of the characters in the original set (I couldn't figure out where to put "hook" and "chair"), plus a couple of guesses I made about some other characters. I'm still playing with it, and I'll replace the current version with updated ones as I go.

20 most played artists since i resuscitated my last.fm account in march (see: https://mltshp.com/p/1RNCD)
just a quick vis made whilst zoning out in a meeting of endless standups, working with a CSV export of plays in a notebook.
gotta admit, there's something weirdly fun about seeing my listening habits laid out on the site and fiddling with them.
i was working on a little pie chart to call out what percentage of all plays my top 20 artists were (for example, american football is waaaay up there but only accounted for something like 7% of my plays!) but i hadn't figured it out yet. i don't have a programmer brain so... it's slow.

EDIT: will have to re-run this later... once again, inconsistent tagging and a case-sensitive count function is giving me lower numbers than there should be. oy vey.

I lived in LA for 30 years, and rarely went to the springs. Lovely town. Too hot.
