I was on a 22 passing 16th & Bryant and wondered why it was taking so long. the signal was out at that ridiculous intersection!

A few years back, wifey and I did a project together, as we often do. We wanted to do a very specific mashup - death metal and Pokémon. It's admittedly a niche. But we wanted to choose Cubone because that's the name of our furry son (the one in my avi). And the Pokémon's back story, wearing his dead mom's skull, it's pretty metal. Original shirt inspiration on the right, for reference (I have a very worn copy of this one). I sketched it out, she painted (she's so tale…

I drove down town for the No Kings Rally to see how it was going, and maybe attend. It was going great, but because of that no parking in sight. So I drove by the rally and honked, clapped, and waved ... and cried.
I realized that being a recent widower, my emotions aren't settled enough to experience such inspiration -- it's overwhelming to see.

Former UN Ambassador Andrew Young describes 'dirty work' of civil rights movement in new documentary
Former U.N. ambassador Andrew Young says that he was often responsible for “the dirty work” during his time fighting for civil rights with the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. in the 1960s. It seems an unsavory phrase. Grunt work is more like it — efforts that may not produce headlines but keep the …

I've noticed that increasingly the conditions necessary for creative activity can't be willed into existence. Even when inspiration arrives, the "setup" needed for bringing it into reality remains maddeningly contingent - some fragile constellation of circumstances must align.
"Creative readiness" seems to involve a delicate equilibrium of internal permissions and external ratifications, where the subconscious operates as a kind of skeptical gatekeeper, dema…
