High fives!!! Progress + polish is amazing (especially in These Times).

This is at the edge of the prompt, but I've often thought about the timing of the Goncharov phenomenon on Tumblr—fall 2022, right before the era of widespread genAI adoption—and how a collective event like that could not have unfolded in the same way even a few months later.

This interview with Any Lucia Belloza is heartbreaking but everyone should read it. These are the lives our country is destroying.

As she sat on a bus near a tarmac in Texas in the early hours on Saturday morning, just about 48 hours after her arrest — with handcuffs around her wrists and shackles around her feet — and saw that most of the people around her were from Honduras, too, Lopez Belloza realized she was likely being deported that very day. “The thing that was hitting me so hard, it was my education,” Lopez Belloza, who is the first in her family to go to college, said. “I was so happy when I got there [to Babson],” Lopez Belloza said. “I was just living the college life — going to events, going everywhere ... everything there was really great. I really loved the school." She and her father also had a special shared aspiration. With her business degree, Lopez Belloza was going to help her father open his own tailor shop, they hoped.

I'm so sorry for your loss, Matt. It's clear from seeing even just those two photos what a vivid presence your dad must have been.
