Thanks, Siri (and ChatGPT)! I’ll be sure to mark my calendar on Thursday, January 25.
Anyway, remember to use AI for everything all of the time (while making sure you are physically in the office and not at home) or you aren’t really working.

In a potentially related follow-up question to my last one, why are there casters on the floor of the kids’ room? Two sets. From what? Nothing up here even uses casters. In fact, I can think of nothing in this whole house which would use them. What would even use only two of them??

Found this absolute unit of (what I think is) a Chinese mantis in the back yard. Carry on, little guy. Eat your fill and tell your friends - plenty of god-forsaken yellow jackets to go around.

If we could all agree on the definition of what a cup is, I wouldn’t have to manifest an Excel spreadsheet in my coffee cupboard. It didn’t have to be this way.
