Super escapade dans les Cantons de l'Est pour la longue fin de semaine!

Owl’s Head en Couleurs - Vue sur le lac Memphrémagog. La végétation a pris ses couleurs d'automne. Un bouleau a perdu la majorité de son feuillage. Le ciel est bleu. (octobre 2025).

Magog - Coucher de soleil sur le lac Memphrémagog. Le ciel est bleu foncé et orange. On voit la silhouette des montagnes en arrière-plan et d'oiseaux et d'un bateau,. (octobre 2025).

Parc écoforestier de Johnville - Sentier de La Tourbière - Une passerelle au milieu de la végétation. Les mélèzes ont pris une belle couleur jaunâtre. Le ciel est bleu. (octobre 2025).

Marais de la Rivière aux Cerises - Une cabane au milieu du marais. La végétation est aux couleurs de l'automne. Le ciel est gris. (octobre 2025).

The only reason it’s happened to me before is they had to do a hard restart of a server - but if it’s been going on for weeks I don’t know.

Now look what you made me do 😏

A record player with the sleeve for the self-titled RATM album on a display shelf above it. I also have an acrylic painting of Tom Morello's Arm The Homeless guitar hanging above the record player.

At the TIME100 AI celebration last night, Natasha Lyonne stood in front of the emperors of AI and challenged them to their face. Doing that takes guts. And I’m incredibly honored that she cited my work as well.

Thank you for speaking truth to power, Natasha. 🙏
