Brushing up on Mouse Guard. I don't yet know who I will run it for next year, but run it I will.

Just finished, for the third time, "The Gunslinger" by Stephen King. Looking forward to once again continuing Roland and his ka-tet's journey for the illustrious Dark Tower in The Drawing of The Three.

#booksky
Cover art for Dark Tower 1: The Gunslinger, by Stephen King. It features Roland, a tall, cowboyish figure, looking down at a raven. The ground is dusty brown and the sky is a mottled yellow. A tall, dark tower looms, enshrouded, far behind Roland to his left.

Will Ferrell and Chad Smith (from the Red Hot Chili Peppers) are sitting side by side on the set of a late night show, wearing matching outfits. Because they look so much a like, it makes them look like clones. "2001 Iraq War propaganda" is superimposed over Ferrell. "2025 Iran War propaganda" is superimposed over Chad Smith.

Yuuuuup. My layoff notification isn't far away. Not because these work as promised, but because they'll sacrifice everything and everything to maintain the artifice that they do.
A cut from an email notification from Microsoft says: "Try Researcher and Analyst today ‌ ‌We’re excited to introduce our latest Copilot gamechangers—Researcher and Analyst! These are first-of-their-kind reasoning agents giving you highly skilled expertise on demand. "

This is just desparate, Microsoft. You've shoved Copilot into every corner of every product imaginable, almost no one's using it, so now you're making it follow my fucking cursor? It's the same they-can't-keep-saying-no-forever strategy most of these loser engineers use to get dates.

A superimposed comment from a previous video asks "You do know that Anne Frank is a fictional character?" as the video creator, a middle-aged woman with short brown hair wearing a sweater and a scarf, looks into the camera and holds her head in disbelief.

A screenshot from Stardew Valley. It shows 5 of the single female characters - Emily, Haley, Leah, Penny, and Abigail - with 8 out of 10 hearts, the most you can get without initiating a relationship.

Poster for the show MacGyver. A sandy-haired man (our hero, MacGyver), dominates the frame. He is standing cross-armed, looking off to the right, while wearing a blue and green flannel shirt and tan khaki pants. The show's title, "MacGyver," is in thick, large, red block-letter font at the bottom of the image and is outlined in gold.

Day 19 / 20
Poster for the TV Show Pushing Daisies. The background is a bright blue, slightly cloudy sky. A large cloud is at the top and serves as a background for the title of the show, written in large, green, block letters and arranged a little helter-skelter. A bee is flying in front of the letters. Below, in the center of the image, the characters in the show sit on oversized daises. The two man characters in the middle - a man in a suit and a woman in a red dress - look at each other longingly.

Poster for Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares. A large headshot of Gordon Ramsay with his trademark forehead wrinkles and spiky hairstyle is in the center. Superimposed is a Freddy Kreuger glove that has kitchen knives in place of claws. "Gordon Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares" is written at the top in white except for the word nightmares which is red and has blood dripping from a few letters.
