Hello. I know you probably weren't hoping for an update to my rant yesterday, but you're going to get one: Why on God's poor dying earth is this news delivered as if it's not a major problem? Class starts at 0800. How many parents had to call in late to handle this shit? #pickuplinelife

The car-rider pickup line is gonna be SPICY today, y'all. Fully anticipating some suburban soccer mom Karens to ascend from their sun roofs and start throwing Sonic milkshakes. Hell, I might be one of them. (2/?)

Looks like we're settling in. APD presence never really materialized after the bridge. No cops here now. One guy with a brick is menacing traffic but only seems to have one and he's hanging on to it. Wise man. #asheville

It appears my show-up-late gambit was not so masterful. I packed PPE for teargas, y'all. Could we yell a little? #asheville #nokings

When I left, the #Asheville subreddit was full of pictures of the throngs that gathered for the first two #nokings events. When I arrived, I counted exactly 4 protesters left in Pack Square. Pics as of ~445pm.

Going live at Pritchard Park in #Asheville NC, on the scene of the day's third #nokings protest. Follow along for real-time coverage! #ashevillenc

Prepping to head to the #Asheville #NoKings protest in Pritchard Park. I keep coming back to the the FL sheriff's remarks about killing protesters & the fact that the 6pm start time on the DC parade seems designed for a long evening. Knowledge of history benefits all, even tyrants. #bostonmassacre

This evening I cancelled my #Adobe plan. I like to own my software, my catalogs, and my images. But the last straw was the push toward AI. Adobe could have regained much of their reputation if they'd come out swinging, holding the line to defend the creators that made their customer base for 35y.
