A poem for your Saturday
Don't Hesitate
~ Mary Oliver
—If you suddenly and unexpectedly feel joy, don't hesitate/It could be anything, but very likely you notice it in the instant when love begins./Anyway, whatever it is, don't be afraid of its plenty.

Don Lemon went on a podcast and said Megyn Kelly was ugly because she "looks trans."
Here's the receipt.
Misgendering people is gross, calling someone trans as an insult is gross, calling someone trans to say they're unattractive is gross, and is not defending Megyn Kelly to say so.

There's such a fascinating, frustrating tension around suing over your work being used in LLMs and how the settlements in these things normalize the idea that companies can do this anyway and just get a slap on the wrist for it.

The Trump administration has a rainy day fund that will keep SNAP from expiring in November. Trump is refusing to use it.
Funding SNAP isn't a choice he can make. It's a legal obligation. USDA must release the funds and stop punishing the American people.

Extremely frivolous grievance here, but I am irritated I can’t block a restaurant on gig economy delivery apps. Some of them the food is so awful yet the name is so generic, I worry I might accidentally order from them again.
