#caturday

Single panel cartoon.
A human doctor is wearing a long white lab coat and one of those stereotypical round mirror thingies that doctors don’t wear on their heads anymore but cartoonists draw anyway, with a clipboard in one hand, is reaching out to an anthropomorphic tabby cat sitting on a bench looking worried. The doctor says, “Bad news, it’s curiosity.”

with the bar for safe bike infrastructure as low as it is, it's hard to strike the right balance after a project between "hooray! it's so much better!" and "this, that, and the other thing still suck."
Streetsblog SF often errs on the latter side... I'm happier than ever with #ValenciaStreet, but their critiques are not wrong.

Ilford FP4 E.I. 64

**English:**
This black-and-white photograph depicts a tranquil scene in what appears to be a park or a tree-lined street. A person is riding a bicycle away from the camera down a paved path, surrounded by lush trees and greenery. The sunlight filters through the leaves, casting dappled shadows on the ground. The image evokes a sense of peace and leisurely activity in a natural setting.

Last year, we bought a collection of 17 Georgia paintings by 19th- and 20th-century artists, many of whom are lesser known. Even the ones who are better known, like #NellChoateJones, aren't exactly _well_ known. We're excited to start studying these works and learning about the Georgia scenes many of them show.

Nell Choate Jones' painting "Square at St. Mary's," a color scene that shows a Black family in a southern square, next to a big tree. They could be in front of a church. Most of them are wearing white.
Augusta Oelschig's painting of a young Black boy in a gold frame. She shows him at bust length, looking slightly to his left. He wears a pale blue shirt with an open collar.
A watercolor painting of Savannah by Hattie Saussy. Seen from a park it shows several four- or five-story brick buildings across the way, partially blocked by greenery. The image is soft and pastel, more abstract in the foreground and more precise in the background.

New survey data out Friday shows that Republicans are wrong if they remain unconcerned about public sentiment as it relates to the evisceration of Medicaid or healthcare support systems that would result from passage of their colossal legislation now making its way through Congress
— a bill that, if passed, would see coverage stripped from an estimated 11-16 million people in the coming years.

The only jury I've ever been on faced a question about resisting arrest. The defendant was tackled by an officer and initially fought back (or so the officer claimed). The officer was wearing a police uniform, but we acquitted on the charge, because the defendant was tackled from behind and there was reasonable doubt as to whether the officer actually identified themselves verbally in a way that made it clear to the defendant they weren't being tackled by some random dude.
This ain't legal advice, but in situations where a kidnapper refuses to identify themselves, show a warrant, or even a badge number, I suspect a sufficiently white bystander might not be convicted on interference charges if they did something like a citizen's arrest of a suspicious out-of-town paramilitary type who was in the process of an extrajudicial kidnapping. If there are multiple kidnappers, to be effective you might need multiple people willing to face jail time for such interventions to be successful...
#resist #ICE #kidnapping
Just thinking about this in light of the recent kidnapping in the next town over where some fools called the city police thinking they might actually protect the community from an unlawful assault. Can't blame the fools too much because of how deep positive portrayals of cops are embedded in our media diet though...

Claude 3.7 describes the image as: "The image shows a close-up of a person with dark, short hair wearing what appears to be a gray or silver jacket with a high collar. They have an intense or concerned expression on their face. The lighting gives the scene a somewhat dark, muted tone with greenish hues in the background.

This appears to be from a science fiction television production from the late 1970s or early 1980s, based on the visual style and filming quality. The setting seems to be some…

Claude 3.7 describes the image as: "This image shows a person with curly dark hair wearing a gray futuristic uniform with white/silver accents and decorative studs or buttons. They appear to be in what looks like a spacecraft or technological control room, with what seems to be a monitor or screen visible in the background. The setting has a distinctly retro sci-fi aesthetic typical of British television productions from the late 1970s to early 1980s. The costume design features the angular sho…

And by “prevent crime,” what they mean is AI will be able to automatically yell at homeless people to move along! Innovation!

In the video, two individuals approach the side of a parking ramp with a blanket. Keywords appear on the screen describing what the individuals in the shot are wearing and holding.

Soon after their arrival, an automated voice delivers a message: “Attention, the individual in the brown sweatshirt, and the individual wearing the black beanie near the parking garage entrance, please leave the premises immediately.”
