Reading the following and my brain just says "good lord" and/or "good heavens" and/or "holy shit" and/or "holy hell" again and again.

AI's Economics Don't Make Sense by Ed Zitron.

By the way, "Zitron" must be his nom-de-plume, right? It isn't a real name, right?

I love it.

"El gato victorioso"

Autor: José Emir Juárez Muñúzuri

Institución: Centro de Arte Universitario Acapulco

La obra enfoca la grandesa del gato como animal, representandolo en una posición de victoria en medio de un campo de batalla, imponiendo su dominio sobre otras especies de animales.

A raffle by the H.P. Lovecraft Historical Society for the restoration of Robert E. Howard (the Conan author)'s historical house (which is currently a museum dedicated for his life and work).

From time to time, the HPLHS conducts a raffle to raise funds for a great cause. It came to our attention that the home of Robert E. Howard in Cross Plains, Texas is in serious need of restoration and needs funds to do it. So we've reached out to some friends in the community and assembled our biggest prize package yet.

Who was Robert E. Howard? He was a friend and correspondent of H.P. Lovecraft. He was a fellow author of pulp fiction. And where Lovecraft created Cthulhu, Howard created Conan the Barbarian, Red Sonja, Solomon Kane and other great characters in his all-too-short writing career. The Robert E. Howard Foundation maintains his home as a museum in Texas. Time has taken its toll on the house, and together we can raise some money to help with its restoration.
