  “Archival Magic” seminar. This morning I attended a presentation Dustin Renwick about “Archival Magic” via the FieldTrips effort by Creative Mornings. I like the idea of using archival public domain resources as part of creative endeavors. I appreciate that he’s turned a good deal of research into a handy list to find treasures of the past that can...

  New Bot Day! Welcome Dynomutt, Dog Wonder. The Dog Wonder can extend his neck and paws and often his heroics go awry. He worked with Blue Falcon to protect Big City in Hanna-Barbera’s The Scooby-Doo/Dynomutt Hour (1976). I love dog-bots. And Joe Cool. And art. And social justice.

  Open Graph Protocol Tools updated to version 1.91 It’s been 10 years since I first wrote the Open Graph Protocol Tools WordPress plugin. It was first published to the WordPress Plugin repository on April 28, 2010. It’s a tool that embeds metadata into your WordPress blog so posts and pages that can be parsed by social media. It’s not a particular popular plugin,...

  On misgendering I was wearing my red sweater and was misgendered this morning (November 4, 2019) at the drive-through. Writing here in 2020, I can’t remember whether it was “ma’am” instead of “sir” or whether I merely overheard someone refer to me as “she” rather than “he.” But it’s immaterial.

  New Bot Day! Long time no bots. Welcome Silent Running (1972)’s Dewey (01), Huey (02), Louie (03). They are bots that help Freeman Lowell’s fraught effort to preserve Earth’s forests on a spaceship called the Valley Forge. Behind it is Kelvin @klart760/ @thehillstreetcountryclubs’ lovely screen-printed #BLM canvas bag. Have hope—eyes on the prize!
