AVCX is great! They put out a really fun variety puzzle last night that was perfect to do during a middle-of-the-night baby feed.
It was also my first time solving a pdf in the books app, which worked surprisingly well.

If you use GMail, AI (Gemini) was turned on yesterday by default and now scans all of your content for machine learning. To turn off, go to Settings>General and scroll down. Uncheck the box for "Smart features."
There's other "Smart" add-ons as well, but that's the one that reads your content.

My furlough-long effort produced the same result.
it's not that i ever doubted that being a barista was a skilled position, but my year-long effort to try to produce a half-decent latte at home has convinced me that a good barista is easily more skilled than virtually every c-suite executive on the planet

The President wants to use the military to crack down on Americans who are exercising their 1st Amendment rights to oppose him. I can’t think of a better reason to insist on exercising those rights.

Remember, there’s nothing more American than protesting a self-indulgent, power abusing King. It’s actually how our country was born.
Behave accordingly.

Ok everyone, I’m assigning you your resistance homework for the week.
Everyone ready?
Do something silly that makes you smile. I just waved at a dog that had its head out the car window because it made me happy. Don’t let the assholes take your joy.

I think we should do Trump-is-dead speculation every time we get a clean chance, it’s clearly great for team morale.
If you’re not into it, I dunno, post cat pics or something and enjoy the downstream benefits of other people being in a good mood

At this point, any Democrat who votes to keep this government open without extracting very serious concessions — RFK’s resignation, ICE rollback, Epstein Files release, etc — will absolutely face a primary challenger who will set fundraising records.
Republicans run the White House, Congress and Supreme Court on the principle that the only role Dems can play is bailing the GOP out from facing the consequences of their own actions.
They expect Dems to clean up after them and save them from voters’ blame, and sadly some Dems want to do just that.

A grim reminder: these people will never be satisfied. There’s no point at which they will say “we’ve won, let’s enjoy life.” They will always be looking for someone else to punish, to revile, to dehumanize. They’re empty without that.

Read this. We are, yet again, risking actual readiness and military capability to gain stupid parochial political points.
"Why should I care about U.S. Space Command being transferred to Alabama? I hate the military-industrial complex. We spend too much money on defense. Why does it matter which rich people get richer off it?"
There are a number of reasons you should care, but you really only need one.

Old Soviet joke for today:
A man walks into a newsstand every day, looks around, and leaves.
After a long time of this, the owner says “Can I help you find something?”
“I’m looking for the obituaries.”
“The obituaries are in the back of the newspaper, comrade.”
“Not the one I’m looking for.”
