The video features a small, fluffy dog with a light brown coat in a well-lit living room. The room is furnished with a grey sofa adorned with cushions, a large flat-screen TV on a white media console, and a beige shaggy rug on a wooden floor. A glass door with dark curtains leads to a green garden, allowing natural light to fill the space. The dog is seen holding a green hose in its mouth, moving around the room, and interacting with the water being sprayed from the hose. The water creates a wet spot on the floor, and the dog appears to be enjoying the activity, moving energetically and occasionally looking towards the camera. The video is recorded in real-time, as indicated by the 'REC' and battery icon in the top corners of the frames. The dog's playful behavior is the central focus, with the camera capturing the scene from a fixed position, emphasizing the dog's actions and the water spray.

I wrote about the humility of expertise and the arrogance of ignorance, the profound laziness that attends believing that you can find knowledge by ignoring the accumulation of inherited human knowledge, and the ways lazy arrogance fuels narratives of fascism. the-reframe.com/your-ignorance…

Makes me think of that Asimov quote:

"There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there always has been.

The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that 'my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.'"

Das Bild zeigt drei Stofftiere auf einem alten, dunklen Lautsprecher. Links ist ein Stofftier mit einem bunten Pullover und weißen gestreiften Socken zu sehen. In der Mitte befindet sich ein pixeliertes Stofftier, dessen Gesicht nicht erkennbar ist. Rechts liegt ein Stofftier in einem schwarzen Kleidungsstück. Der Hintergrund ist dunkel und wirkt etwas verwahrlost, mit sichtbaren Flecken und Schmutz. Die Stofftiere wirken etwas verstaubt und verlassen, was auf eine vergessene oder abgelegte Umgebung hinweist.

Time to think about a #Halloween #costume.

One possibility: a solar punk. Some thoughts:

- A Mohawk made out of solar panels
- An animal companion and/or a potted plant
- Circuit tattoos
- Shoulder board dioramas of wind turbines, greenhouses, etc.
- Fingerless black gloves or gardening gloves
- A denim vest covered in studs or political buttons
- Jewelry with lots of glass and bright colors
- Tool belt
- LEDs aplenty

Hit me with your ideas!

@economics-that-works

Heterodox economic models will assert that housing prices are a product of the enthusiasm of the banking sector to lend. This is all well and good, but in its abstraction, it pays no attention to the actual factors on the ground.

* I will not hear that the dynamics of 2008 had more to do with the extraordinary profits of the derivatives markets. Derivatives are obscenely profitable to finance with no transparency requirements still

youtu.be/ALlsZYLMGxw

in reply to GhostOnTheHalfShell

I've always assumed that the broad housing market most directly reflects the most fundamental factor in economics, supply vs. demand. It is one of the fundamental and essential resources -- habitation space and shelter -- which everyone needs, like air and water. As the human population grows while the world does not, it's inevitable that the value and therefore cost of housing must rise, for that fact alone, no matter what else is going on.
in reply to WesDym

@wesdym

Right, but the structure of the homeownership specifically as governed by the mortgage market. And if you go through the math because the supply is relatively inelastic, the dominant factor controlling the cost of houses is the eagerness with which banks will offer loans.

This is because of the bidding war from buyers and they bid by the size of the loan they can qualify for.

Housing speculation adds another layer to this dynamic




OK so I am doing something I have not done in a very long time, Thanks to someones kindness I was able to order a few food items, some of which was a 7lb pork shoulder roast which is currently in my roasting pan in the oven, surrounded by 6 chunked up potatoes, the roast is lovingly covered with apple sauce and some is gingerly drizzled upon the potatoes, then as a poor man spices are sparse, but I had some pumpkin pie spice blend, which I offered a generous but not over flowing sprinkling over everything along with a light sprinkle of pink salt, the roasting pan and its cover on are sitting gently on the 2nd from the bottom rack as its the only way to fit, at 350deg I plan on letting it roast there for the next 3 1/2 hours, at which point I plan on shutting off the oven and letting sit for another 1 hour, then I will have some dinner today, tomorrow and the next two days, but This #disabled man existing in #poverty still needs $1323 This month, please help today, Lets See If We Can Come Together And Raise At Least $500 Right Now, It wont take care of everything but it will be a big help, I need to pay rent and buy #food yet this month, your prompt and compassionate support will be greatly appreciated, $5-10-15 It All Helps, via #cashapp at $woctxphotog or via #paypal at paypal.com/donate?campaign_id=…

I experimented with posting my art on deviantart, then settled on another platform, but forgot to delete the deviantart account.

Years later, I came across my images on merch being sold in another country.
Decided not to bother stopping it, I guess it's on me for digital negligence and not watermarking my images. Sigh.
I hope people enjoy their shirts with my artwork on them.

At the end of every summer, my dad offers to drive us back to the city. Every summer I decline and get him to just drop us off at the train station. The kids hate sitting in a car and we get to do other things on the train together.

Today it was solving this puzzle together.

in reply to PaulaToThePeople 😷

@PaulaToThePeople

It was a long train ride so I taught them to set up equations rather than do it intuitively.

7 figured out how to simplify it right away but had a bit of trouble with isolating. 10 got it after I set it up but needed a bit of a prod.

We ended up with a sheet of coloured in squares, triangles, circles, and stars with the value of each. It was fun to walk them through this... If daddy was there it was have been done intuitively. I wanted to teach them to logic their way through it.

in reply to Chu 朱

Ouch, my brain hurts now. I set up an excel clone to figure out the value of each symbol. From your other comments there is an easier way. Oh well, it was fun.
Thanks for the challenge.

in reply to Dave the Nomad 🇨🇦

The image depicts a forest scene with a bird perched on a branch. The bird, likely a hawk, has a mottled brown and white plumage, blending well with the surrounding foliage. It is positioned on a horizontal branch, with its body facing slightly to the right. The branch is part of a larger tree with white bark, and the background is filled with dense greenery, including leaves and other branches. The lighting suggests it is daytime, with sunlight filtering through the trees, creating a dappled effect on the bird and the surrounding area. The bird's sharp beak and keen eyes are visible, indicating its predatory nature.

Two shirt patterns to choose from. One claims it is a 3 hour shirt. 🤔 #sewing
in reply to AI6YR Ben

The full pattern is 20 pieces. The 3 hour is 15. Probably should figure out the difference. Maybe pockets. #sewing
in reply to AI6YR Ben

The short sleeve version will be easier and faster.

Not all of the 20 pieces for the dress shirt may be needed. The pattern envelope gives the total amount of pieces included, for all views on the package. Each view will probably use only a portion of those pieces.

The first instruction sheet will have drawings of each variation, followed by a list of pattern pieces used for each variation. It also shows which pieces will need interfacing, and of course, the cutting layout for different widths of fabric. The best practice is to study that sheet first, before cutting out the paper pattern or fabric.

in reply to AI6YR Ben

The sleeve plackets are the most difficult sewing I see.

They have interfacing for extra body and strength. They have to have a neat miter point, covering the slash.
Buttonholes and buttons.

Light weight interfacing for the collar, front placket, cuffs and sleeve plackets. does not make it more difficult, just stiffer. The top fold of the pocket might call for interfacing so it doesn't sag.

in reply to AI6YR Ben

This pattern is a size medium. Have you compared your measurements to the pattern's?
Shoulders, chest and waist.
If you bought a dress shirt, do you know your current size?

Sleeve length is an easy adjustment.
Any collar size adjustment must match shirt.

Casual short sleeved shirts can have 0-2 breast pockets.
Long sleeved work shirts, western shirts, safari and sport shirts have two.
Dress shirts have one pocket on the left, for your pocket protector - where you keep your pens and slide rule.

in reply to Shirley Eugest

@EugestShirley Maybe a shirt pocket would work for a mini slide rule but for a serious one you need a case with a belt loop like this: ebay.us/m/sf5yqi. I may be misremembering but I think the one I took to high school every day had one and I wore it like that. #nerd
in reply to Shirley Eugest

@EugestShirley wait, a slide rule in a pocket protector???

c'mon man, a real slide rule comes with a full length scabbard of fine leather, and is worn the same way you'd wear a sword back in the elder days.

you don't wanna die with a wimpy little slide rule that fits in a pocket protector

in reply to llewelly

@llewelly @czarbucks @EugestShirley @xris I was posting a lot about slide rules at that point--I don't recall going on much about circular ones specifically, but I remember being fascinated by the International Slide Rule Museum's page on specialized slide charts, some of which were circular:

mathstodon.xyz/@mattmcirvin/11…

in reply to Shirley Eugest

@EugestShirley The "3 hour" says it's Men's Medium

Bust-chest 36-38
Hip 38-40

My measurements:
Chest: 40
Hip: 41

The other says "size HH" 34-40 whatever that means.

So I guess the Medium would have to be scaled up a bit to fit me.

in reply to AI6YR Ben

Scaling up is called pattern grading. You probably want to use the slash-and-spread method to grade up.
Insert a strip of paper. Don't lose your armhole and neck shape.

If the armhole increases, so does the sleeve cap.

If you need a longer collar, make the neck scoop fit where the seam will be stitched, not the outside of the seam allowance.

As you sew, clipping curves is your friend.

in reply to Shirley Eugest

@EugestShirley
Doing a little of this my self on a pants pattern where I need an extra inch in the height (rise?) Of the waist.

@ai6yr see of you can find this book at your library: The Act of Sewing, by Sonya Phillips. It shows how to make adjustments of all types to different garments. It is written for women but should be adaptable to men's clothing
