Hilarious. And I read that in his voice.
Reuters recently DID unmask him. Two guys that work together. One was Robin Gunningham, who started out as a stencil artist under the name Robin Banks, which became Mr. Banks, which became Banksy. The other is Robert Del Naja (frontman of Massive Attack). They worked together and separately. Banksy says that De Naja is the better illustrator, by far. So does Banksy’s former agent.

@Davezilla I maintain that there is a secret army of "Banksy's" trained in secret by Damien Hirst. It's like James Bond or the Dread Pirate Roberts. The original Banksy sold out years ago, now Hirst is gleefully living out his Warhol fantasies funded by his ill-gotten millions. I have no proof and I'm trying to make conspiracies fun again. Thank you for picking up my poorly xeroxed newsletter.
Bonkers Board

Another pic from my current research project on Cottesloe Beach, Western Australia.
This one titled: This bonkers 16ft toothpick surfboard is pictured in 1955 with champion board paddler John “Artie” Shaw alongside a Cottesloe SLSC pennant.

That you can see the wood grain on that makes me shiver at heavy this board must have been (to modern boards).
He's got those guns not from surfing/swimming but from hauling that board around.

my brothers and i have been sending each other these guys' norteño covers for months now.

I wish Moz hadn't morphed so thoroughly into his final, asshole form. The songs are so good. This is so good.
@B6FA798A3449 yeah, it's depressing, especially considering how much i love their work. but on the upside, i read somewhere that morrissey is trying to sell his stake in the smiths! (and, at least the other three are/were seemingly pretty diametrically opposed to his asshattery)
plus, i mean, people making the music their own makes it all worth while.
órrale!

Cover of 1920s magazine Radio Craft showing a tuxedoed man playing a new instrument called the Marimbalite by shining handheld flashlights at two arrays of glass bulbs or sensors arranged before him as if they were the white and black keys of a piano keyboard. His facial expression is one of smug superiority.
i would love to play the f*ck out of this thing - and it would likely be completely unplayable.

A bowl of baked beans and corn sits on a colorful glass cutting board on my kitchen counter. In the corner are the handle of a brayer and a print I’m working on right now.
Beans-and-corn.
When I was a kid this was one of the least expensive ways my parents found to get big bowls of complete protein to three kids.
My dad would get cheapo baked beans and add frozen corn and then add ketchup and mustard and barbecue sauce and brown sugar. I used Busch’s instead (ROLLLL that beautiful bean footage), but still ended up adding a little bbq sauce.
It was filling and hot and delicious and the corn adds both sweetness and more texture than just the smooshy beans on their own.
Even my kid who doesn’t like baked beans not only liked it, but spent a bunch of time talking about how much he liked it, so that’s kind of fun.

My version of this uses the frozen corn that has other veggies in it like bell peppers and onions (*not* peas & carrots) , often called something like "Southwestern" depending on the brand, mayhap you'd like that as well?
(Sometimes I add some cumin & chili powder for an "instant chili" if you will.) Then if you have leftovers throw an egg on in the morning and/or put some in a tortilla for insta-burrito.

@williwaw that all sounds good! Tonight it was mostly just for nostalgia’s sake, and m’lovely wife doesn’t love beans, so the fact that she’s out of town is the only reason I was happy to make it this evening’s entree, so prolly won’t riff on it much moving forward. 😂
That said, I DO love bean tacos/burritos!!

Ottoman data viz

This image is the cover of an issue of "Cerîde-i Adliyye" (The Justice Gazette), published by the Ministry of Justice in Turkey in 1926. The publication dates back to the Ottoman era and continued into the early years of the Turkish Republic. The image represents a sophisticated use of data visualization techniques, which were quite advanced for the time.

long weekend selfie

black and white image of a tired-assed middle-aged mostly-caucasian hipster doofus taking a selfie in a motorcycle side mirror. he is wearing a flannel shirt, windsor frame eyesglasses, and a stocking cap
spent the weekend checking in on my parents after their town was hit by (positively massive) hail and a tornado.
i was so relieved to discover that they were left mostly untouched when neighbors had totaled cars, broken windshields, broken roofs. hail did end up piercing their roof in one spot, but thankfully no water got through.
the hail did do some damage to my dad’s gigantic truck, which is a bit of a point of contention. he hasn’t been able to walk well since his stroke last year, let alone drive, and yet he keeps holding on to that truck. i want him to have a rehabilitation goal to work toward, but watching it rust in the driveway while they continue to pay insurance on it seems like such a waste. same with his motorcycle, the mirror of which you can see here.
since i didn’t have broken glass to clean up or windows to board up, i was able to do some cleaning for my mom, who is really overworked right now. there’s a balancing act between letting her cede enough control to be able to do things for her, keeping her easily-bruised pride intact, and keeping my cool with her distractability and avoidance dances. it’s slow work getting there, one piece at a time, but we are building to something.
i’m in a quiet place in my own life at the moment, but i know i need to take a lesson from my interactions with my mom - stop avoiding things, stop being too proud to ask for help. it’s time to unpack some tasks for myself so i can do better for them as they need more help.
anywho, that’s-a-me, that’s where i am. maybe next time you’ll get some pics of my still-intact lego creations i unearthed in their attic instead of my wrinkled-assed mug.

Photo of a cat, but there's some photoshopping going on so it's face looks small on it's body, eyes, nose and mouth look too close together.
Or the face is normal and the rest of the cat has been blown up large.

Sounds like a conflict between hardware and software. Usually caused by a controller using an inappropriate port.
SOP is to apply a permanent fix by KILLing the offender and sealing the port. Side benefit is usually a reduction in attack surface in future penetration testing.

A picture of the Griffith observatory about 50 minutes after sunset. The front of the building is lit by car headlights and many people are visible.
Griffith Observatory. March 17, 2026. First time visiting. Temp was about 85F.
I used to bike up there every so often and walk around the promenade on the front side of the building. I *adore* the Observatory.
A peoples palace of science. Beautiful
There was a series of Big Letter postcards I didn't buy there in the 90s that I still regret. Otherwise , no notes ans try to work in a visit on the rare occasion I get to LA
