I cannot believe how many people I talked to in the last 4 days. Wow. So many good connections made! So many people roped into satellite pollution advocacy!! This is excellent.

I made two Terra Cotta ollas to sink into one of my raised garden bed. You fill these with water and the water slowly seeps through the porous clay into the dirt. The roots of the plants are attracted to this slow water seepage and surround the pots. I'm testing these near my tomato plants and hoping for the best. (photos attached)

Judith Larner Lowry, who founded Larner Seeds in '77, has just died. She turned her own land into a native California plant paradise & collected seeds from them to form her business, which is where I got the seeds to turn my lawn into something beautiful #bloomscrolling ๐ŸŒฑ

OMG - I missclicked and pulled this tiara onto Carlo's picture instead of the intended hat AND IT FIT PERFECTLY.

I have NEVER had something fit without a single tweak.

I can't fight forces like that.

Assoc editor of Frontiers in Systems #Neuro:

Over the last month I saw that human editors are now stripped of control. I could no longer stop the system from auto-inviting "reviewers" with zero relevant expertise. Even worse - the AI began actively revoking the invitations I manually sent out to actual, qualified experts.

I emailed and met with the editorial office to ask for the AI assistant to be turned off. I was told this is not possible.

Iโ€™ve officially resigned as Associate Editor for Frontiers in Systems Neuroscience. It used to be a reputable journal, but became a case study in how forced automation destroys academic integrity. ๐Ÿ‘‡
