unsettlinggrounds.com is an augumented reality project I worked on with some very talented artists, dancers, & poets. Follow the link to download the IOS/Android app. Wear headphones/earbuds, and step outside because you’ll need room to walk a few feet to some parts of the exhibit. At startup, click on the black cat’s eyes until they glow.

Found this clever solution for curing onions here: melissaknorris.com/podcast/how . I use livestock panel for everything from fencing and trellising tomatoes to laying them on the ground under the porch to create “no dig” zones for my dog. Who knew you could use them to cure onions?

When I’m not creating art, I like to grow things. My mother was an Alabama farm girl who was swept up in the Great Migration out of the South. Many of the life lessons that have directed me on my own path were learned in her garden. The grapes and berries are deliciously sweet and the jalepenos, nice and hot. What’s in your garden?

“The Nadir,” as the historian Rayford Logan coined it: the period following Reconstruction in which America witnessed the resurgence and bloody normalization of White Power politics.” (Boston Review) @BlackMastodon

This all happened on the same day, a day after the Supreme Court’s affirmative action ruling. Coincidence? Are we in the midst of another nadir period in American history? See post about nadir.

3 years ago I returned to my artistic roots. I spent yesterday hanging work for a solo show. After decades of working in the mines of the American Corpocracy, it’s rewarding to be embraced by the arts community. Artists are cool & quirky & some of my favorite people. No wonder that guy with the weird mustache and the funny haircut was rejected.

Love watching “Gone With the Wind,” on Freedom to Own Slaves Day. Scarlet is such an evil creature, and Rhett with those SETI telescope-sized ears. Butterfly McQueen working that Brer Rabbit magic by manipulating her captors. All that and the shamelessly racist tropes played with straight faces. The whole movie is such a hilarious unintentional comedy.

There's no doubt - the Fediverse acts different from Twitter. Whether it's search or the convention of using tags - things are not the same.

I have found some newcomers' resistance to using tags a little puzzling. Tags are how one navigates and jumps across the Fediverse!

That's absolutely how I'm finding and other identity-specific content/users. I find the tag, scroll through the posts/users, and either follow the tag wholesale or pick out the users to follow. And so on and so on.

This has allowed me to follow folks on different instances, across topics, regions, etc.

For me, it's clear that there are at least 2 different issues at play, which are unfortunately not creating the best experience for folks: safety and belonging for Black + Brown users and then ease of use for all Fedi newcomers (especially if they come from the Twitters.)

@yehuda discussed something I didn't think about. Did you know the nursery rhymes, 10 Little Nig.. (1869), Then There Were None (1939, Agatha Christie), & 10 Little Indians (1964) were they the same, just different titles & taught in schools? Sung around the world, not just the US. Thoughts?

In Mississippi.
Earlier this month, white representatives in the Mississippi House approved a bill to create a new district—that includes all of the majority-white neighborhoods in Jackson, a capital city that is 83 percent Black. This includes creating a criminal justice system for the district, overseen by an all-white power base.
