We need a video loop of a nefarious face saying "Jesus" in the Depeche Mode style of "Personal Jesus".
You're welcome.
Kicking off another print job.
The last was successful, so I doubled up on the quantity.
It will be printing for the next day and 6 hours and 21 minutes.
Success!
I finally got my 3D printer to print supports with PVA, a material that dissolves in water.
I need about 80 of these leaves and didn't want to sand all of them.

Whoa. Thunder over San Francisco just now.
Maybe we'll get some cool shots of lightening tonight?
The next project has begun!
I just sent the drawings off to the marble fabricator.
Looks like the execs at Home Depot understands the macroeconomic effects of approaching a living wage for their employees: https://www.npr.org/2023/02/22/1158684971/home-depot-minimum-wage-15

People on Twitter are unbelievably stupid and immoral.
I just kicked off a shit-show on Twitter: https://twitter.com/jurban1997/status/1628488376197451777
Your entire life
Is lived
Action by Action.
Each Action matters.
You control each Action.
Problems can be viewed from 2 perspectives:
Moral and Objective.
The moral perspective describes the failure.
The objective perspective describes how it will cause a failure in something else.
Consider homelessness.
It is a moral problem. Our society should not allow people to suffer without shelter.
It is an objective problem because it causes failure in:
- Healthcare delivery
- Logistics
- Aesthetics
We must understand the problem before we propose solutions.

Morning musings:
Art doesn't solve a problem.
Art enhances our ability to understand our universe and can improve our emotional baseline (aka: create satisfaction).
If Art was solving a problem, artists would be compensated more by society because they would be used to mitigate failures.
There are no failures caused by a lack of Art.
Morning musings:
Failures are caused by problems.
Problems are caused by both Issues and other Problems.
If you think it is a Problem, but it doesn't cause, or is not going to cause, a Failure, it is not a Problem.
It is simply an Issue.
This will assist you with prioritizing your efforts.
The creation of personal wealth
Is highly correlated
With discipline
My wife had planned on a party for her team a couple weeks before Christmas.
She got COVID. It was postponed to the 2nd week of January.
I got COVID. It was postponed until February 16 (tomorrow).
Someone on her team tested positive after working all day with the team.
Now it's postponed to March.

Robert Costa definitely didn't have to write it that way - but he definitely wanted to.
Eloquence and intensity
do not precisely correlate
to intelligence or wisdom.
Military balloons are now being shot down over #Ukraine:
A new project has started.
A slightly recessed arch detail.
Currently just a simple surface with some candles mounted inside.
This will turn it into a beveled-mirror detail with a coving frame.
I'd like to do it in marble, but I don't have the skill or tools. So, it will be wood with a semi-gloss paint.
