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.

AI could send mass tourism to some grotty outer suburb destination lauded it as the new Taj Mahal, and it wouldn't be a bad thing.

It’s #WineWednesday! 🥂 With Forlong Mon Amour (VT Cádiz) by Bodegas Forlong at lvantxú Espacio Bistronómico #sevilla #wine #azaharwine #spain

🍇 100% Palomino Fino
✨ Salty, mineral, with hints of chalk, herbal notes, and a creamy texture. It also has notes of nuts and blossoms and a bone-dry finish.

I’m 5’4” so after l manage to clamber up onto the stool (never a graceful move) my legs just dangle there until they lose all feeling. Today those poky things nearly killed me.

I mean I’m no fan of tall stools in bars as I’ve been afflicted with short legs that never reach the rungs, but this is just next level cruelty. Why??? Those poky fuckers just dig into your thighs until you can’t think straight anymore.

Goddamm… quick rescue of yesterday’s previously freshly washed and sun dried bed sheets after Morcilla unceremoniously barfed all over them this afternoon 🤦🏻‍♀️

Lucky for her she’s cute.

Also lucky that sheets and quilted mattress cover kept brand new mattress from harm.
