I'm logging off for a while. Stay well, Friends!

Life was better when cellphone contacts maxed out at 400. 📵

Has anyone figured out how to transfer 100K+ media files from FLICKR to GOOGLE PHOTOS? It's not as easy as it sounds. And yes, I've done tons of online research and have paid $100+ for apps to help (it didn't work for me).

MANY THANKS IN ADVANCE if you know the way! 🤷🏻‍♀️ 📷 ❓ ⁉️

I have an environmental science degree because I watched reel-to-reel movies of Dr. Jane Goodall in elementary school. I studied whales because of her and eventually worked in the private sector doing environmental health and safety consulting for ADL on the Big Dig in Boston to repay student loans.

This story makes me happy. Onward!

I've filed a #FOIA request to find out why #virginia has deleted the term #fascism from the state educational standards for teaching #WWII #history.

On a high school tour today, one of the teen guides pointed to a lab and said, “This is old; it was set up in the late 1900s… I think, 1980.” 🙈🤣🪦⚰️💀🫠

Competition idea: The Generalist Games.

Over the course of many days/weeks/episodes, contestants compete against each other across dozens of different disciplines: bake a cake, play tennis, code a simple app, do a dance routine, make a pot, design a logo, solve a crossword puzzle, build a chair, hit a bullseye in darts, perform a lip sync, survive in the wild, play chess, etc.

Applications are now open for Creative Recovery LA, a new initiative focused on arts organizations hardest hit by the pandemic.

Maybe stop calling it AI "art", because art is a uniquely human endeavor. These machines don't practice art. They don't grow and expand and invent. They have no memory of the last task, from which to build the future, nor mind for how the audience reacts. They generate graphics, and that's distinct from practicing art.

This is the story of many refugee/immigrant children. This account is NEAR IDENTICAL to my experience. I'm floored reading another person's words describe a topic I am so intimately knowledgeable about who is NOT my kin.
