Notes from the Post-it Wall | Week of April 30, 2023
“AI expert” is a 2023 phrase that gives me the same feeling as “Social media expert” in 2009. As new as it is and as fast as it’s changing, how can you consider yourself or anyone else an expert? We should be mindful of the foreboding foreshadowing in front of us.
Another Strike at the Arts in America

A Case to be Made for a Pause
Here's the thing: the bill will always come due.
I Believe... [PodBlogger]

Adventures from the Orlando International Airport
If what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas (it doesn’t) then what happens in Orlando haunts you for months.

My happy place is a funeral. Puts things in perspective. At least I don’t have to dig a big hole in the rain.
Give THAT Guy a Gun!
Let’s give that guy a weapon designed to kill another human being. Great fucking idea.
The Quiet Part Out Loud
Writers? I could write that.
I Believe... [Elon Kaufman]

Justice Clarence Thomas is exactly the guy today he was in 1991. An angry, entitled, hateful prick with little regard for rules that impact him.
An Open Letter About Ethics from Brett Kavanaugh
We sat in his jacuzzi and drank PBR out of Hitler’s boot.
Delicious Ambiguity
Eventually, I rub everyone the wrong way.
I Believe... [Adulting]
...that the challenge of being a single adult is that there is no one around to say “Honey? Maybe that brick of cheese and craft beer could wait until tomorrow.”
An Unrelentingly Depressing Poem
