There are a lot of possible explanations for this:
Maybe the people who aren’t interested in AI also happen to vote for more sessions. (At a quick prod at the data, penalizing votes from people who voted for large numbers of sessions does not seem to change the conclusions above, but I haven’t investigated this thoroughly.)
Maybe AI is a more fragmented topic due to its newness, and interest has not coalesced, leading to a large number of small sessions. (But again, •total• votes for AI, including the whole long tail, were proportionally smaller.)

I love this #mural I saw in #OrangeMound this morning. It goes on like this for a couple blocks along Carnes, adjacent to the park, painted on the side of a giant warehouse. So many handprints!
#Memphis …

A small section of a mural painted on the side of a large warehouse. Against a white background, there are gently rolling grassy hills (likely meant to be interpreted as mounds). Above, there are large oranges among foliage. This segment of the mural features dozens of handprints in various shades of red, orange, and yellow. Carnes Avenue at Grand Street, Orange Mound, Memphis, Tennessee, June 26th 2026

Frida Khalo was such a legend. I can't say anything that hasn't already been said, because she is so iconic. But for me, her self determination and control of her own image in the face of her illness and disability is the lesson we could all take from her. #Tate #art

Autorretrato con collar de espinas y colibrí Frida Kahlo - Self-Portrait with Thorn Necklace and Hummingbird, 1940 In this self-portrait, Kahlo portrays herself wearing her hair in an elaborate braid, adorned with butterfly brooches. On either side are a monkey and a cat. She wears a necklace made of thorns, which pierce her throat. From her necklace hangs a dead hummingbird. Above her head some gossamer blooms look like dragonflies.
Frida Kahlo - Girl with Death Mask, 1938, Oil paint on tin plate In this miniature painting, a young girl wears a skull mask while holding a yellow marigold flower. Both objects are associated with the Day of the Dead, a day in Mexican culture where the dead are celebrated instead of mourned. The tiger mask that lies near the girl's feet is used for traditional celebrations in the state of Guerrero, Mexico. The open landscape, gentle colour palette and the presence of a child contrasts with th…
A rare self portrait of Frida with her hair loose. An inscription below tells us that this is her, aged 37, painted in the mirror.
Self-Portrait (in a Velvet Dress), 1926, Oil paint on canvas This was Kahlo's first self-portrait, painted soon after she was hit by a bus, sustaining serious injuries. She wears a loose bathrobe, with an embroidered collar and plunging neckline. The intimate portrait was intended as a gift for her then boyfriend, and she presents herself as a modern woman who is who is free from social constraints.

One expert said the loss of ice in the Bellingshausen Sea was “depressing”
and the failure of ice to form could have intensified a heatwave over the continent’s peninsula
Last week saw daytime temperatures peak at 15.4C
which is more than 20C above average.

Getting a jump start on #caturday, before I forget.

Single panel comic. Saint Peter is standing at his kiosk in front of the Pearly Gates. The little halo above his head confirms his identity. In front of him a cat is sitting on a cloud. A fireman has climbed to the top of a ladder poking through the cloud, in front of the cat. He is holding out an opened can of cat food. The fireman is saying to the cat, “I don’t know how you got up here, but I’m here to help you down.”
Single panel cartoon. A man is laying alone on a double bed, under covers up to his armpits. His phone is atop a side table at his left. There’s a small lamp atop a side table on the other side of the bed. A cat is sitting on the man’s chest looking at him. The cat is saying, “You’re in my personal space.”
