Wow I thought Jim Bakker was already dead. Coulda fooled me!

Just watched this old episode of Forensic Files where they tracked down the bodies based on a rare pollen type found in the soil on the vehicle’s tires and then linked it back to the killer. No DNA needed!

There was a research fellowship I was going to apply for, but they changed the guidelines this year to focus on four specific artists so now I don’t fit. Bummer.

Finally found another of my holy grail curling irons on Vinted which Hot Tools for some reason stopped making. And now my curls have actually stayed for multiple days like they never do with others!

Boy, Tom Cruise is really angling for an Oscar with this Digger movie. He still won’t get it, though.

If you want to both restore your faith in humanity and witness something that AI will never be able to do just go in person to a performance of Beethoven’s 9th Symphony.

I have now become one of the olds at work who knows where all the piles of stuff came from and why they’re there and I’m not sure how I feel about it.

Cool so this should work about as well as when Judy Dench played Old Deuteronomy in the CATS movie.

Heard a guy on NPR say what excites him about AI is developments in medicine and potentially discovering new drugs and treatments. You know what else does that? Funding researchers!!

I just want to go on record at this point with my longstanding dislike of Ed Sheeran.

Of course Noah Wyle was going to win the Emmy (and deservedly so), but it’s always nice to see my relative Rufus Sewell get some attention!

Man, I really don’t want to write about this AAP ebooks study crap, but there’s so much that’s not being said about it that I think it’s very important so here we are.

A vintage exhibition catalog that I ordered months ago from Singapore is finally set to arrive according to the tracking…tomorrow. Which means I’ll have to wait at least another day on account of the holiday.
