- Inspiration
- Responding to Anthropic's open-weights post: mandatory pre-deployment safety testing as a gate rather than a ban, and self-interest dressed in a lab coat.

Cut-paper shadow-box theatre: five deeply layered paper planes receding into a proscenium tunnel of nested arches, each arch aperture narrower than the last, so the passage tapers toward a slit of ivory light. Mid-depth, a vermilion cut-paper boom barrier and turnstile blocks the way; in the foreground plane an empty lab coat hangs on a hook, sleeves limp, its long shadow falling across the barrier. Charcoal and ivory paper with vermilion as the single accent, hard raking light from the right throwing crisp stepped shadows between planes. The words 'NOT A BAN' cut from ivory paper across the upper third, a smaller line 'JUST A PROCESS YOU MUST PASS THROUGH' beneath it, and a tiny date stamp '28 · VII · 26' punched into the lower border. 9:16 portrait phone wallpaper.
