A collection of drawings with suggestions of how to live in the age of AI.

• Read slowly.
• Make ugly things.
• Don't believe everything. (With a drawing of a man with a tie saying "the future is here, while a woman is holding a dog that's pooping while on a lead)
• Eat together.
• Get bored. (With a drawing of someone stargazing)
• Avoid instant replies. (With a drawing of someone playing with a fish in a fish bowl while their phone goes "ting ting ting ting!" on a nearby table
• Call your grandma/grandpa (A drawing of two people next to each other, have a phone conversation "Where are you?" "Right behind you"
• Fall in love (A drawing of two people dancing together)
• Cry every now & then (A drawing of someone lying on the floor, sobbing, while holding a flower and telling it "omg you're so pretty!"
• Memorise a poem (A drawing of someone holding a piece of paper, reading "I'm a phenomenally phenomenal woman, that's me!")
• Trust your gut (A drawing of someone who has freed three birds from a cage)
• Take your time (A drawing of someone working at a desk on a laptop. There is an angry person standing next to them wearing a shirt that says "boss". The boss says "Can you finish this in the next hour?" the person working says "Nope!" with a smile on their face.)

I went for a walk in my local woods. I heard blue tits, robins, chiffchaffs, wrens and, of course, pigeons. I highly recommend spending some time surrounded by nature.

inspired by Maria's last post, I thought I ought to show off my custom keyboard I made with my girlfriend! It's a fucked up layout that I like. It's technically open source but I really wouldn't recommend it as I've never bothered to actually get the screen working 🥴

Here's a closer-up of the custom xenia keycaps I got made

And here's a close-up of the silkscreened comic sans text

Tobacco hawk moth. Found adjacent to my tomato plants, this moth will likely spawn tomato hornworms which will be devastating. But it’s part of the ecosystem. Without them parasitic wasps will not have food and would not survive. So keeping a few pests means success for their predators as well.

Does it hold sentimental value? Has it just lasted ages?
