Thanks for these suggestions Melissa. Both quilting stories were great and Hannah Yoon's Substack resonated. And I've been hoping the right-to-repair would catch on for some time. I remember the days when pretty much everything could be repaired. I hope you enjoyed your time on Cape May. The short time I spent at WorldPride was amazing.
Trump's portrait - Hi Melissa, Interesting that anybody who thinks they're so hip it hurts nowadays has to compare everything to AI. I can think of all kinds of things to say about that portrait, but really, it just doesn't look at all like an AI-generated image to me. But you know, whatever the subject is, it HAS to be about AI somehow. And this from a person who hates AI more than just about anybody. (I'm not real fond of over-worked suck-up portraits of old white guys who think they're tougher than marshmallow fluff either, but that's another story. ) -Carl
