Polanski’s Greens want universal energy bills bailout for Brits

Made a new print this week, in honor of the women in my life with their own special inner power.

The majority of my life I’ve worked in places dominated by female artisans, managed by other women. The skills I learned were taught to me by women. The collaborators I respected the most were women.

The printer got stuck after 3 pages, waiting for more data. That never came, of course.

Rinse, rise, repeat.

There were multiple panels and sessions on the topic, ranging from discussions of AI Ethics to practical considerations for […]
