Formerly @codypd of Twitter/X now parked here. Just another one of those mensa weirdos who has become an absurdist because that's the only way I make sense of the world.
In San Jose del Cabo there is a pretty cool gallery that features sculpture from Sotomayor. He takes junk and spare parts and welds animals out of them and then uses an epoxy resin to color them. They hold up very well outdoors, keeping their color for many years. Here is a peacock he recently made. Zoom in to see the items he used.
You would think, with Stanford and Cal in the middle of Silicon Valley, they’d be able to set a new course for “affiliated independent” schools in the west who can do streaming deals to fund their athletic programs. People forget that it isn’t just football. Baseball, gymnastics, golf, rowing … they will all have to travel to the East Coast if these schools join the ACC. Student athletes unlikely to go pro (like swimmers) aren’t going to benefit from flying to the east coast to compete in most of their meets. And there isn’t enough football TV revenue to cover it.
