In the days before cellphones were widespread, you would meet up at the red Snoopy dog bowl fountain at Camp Snoopy when it was time to head home 🥲

@gretakaul.bsky.social understands the growing up in Minnesota experience 🥺
How a beloved piece of Camp Snoopy ended up at a Ham Lake pumpkin farm
The giant red dog bowl, once a Mall of America amusement park fixture, is now being used as a corn pit.

David Simon, creator of ‘The Wire’, being interviewed by Ari Shapiro (NPR)
SHAPIRO: OK, so you've spent your career creating television without Al, and I could imagine today you thinking, boy, I wish I had had that tool to solve those thorny problems...
SIMON: What?
SHAPIRO: ...Or saying...
SIMON: You imagine that?
SHAPIRO: ...Boy, if that had existed, it would have screwed me over.
SIMON: I don't think Al can remotely challenge what writers do at a fundamentally creative level.
SHAPIRO: But if you're trying to transition from scene five to scene six, and you're stuck with that transition, you could imagine plugging that portion of the script into an Al and say, give me 10 ideas for how to transition this.
SIMON: I'd rather put a gun in my mouth.

There’s evidence much of the “maga feelings” about recent things like Cracker Barrel were driven by bots too.
