Makes perfect sense. If you're beaked on pharmaceuticals and wishcasting for things to be another way.

Marlo tells the security guard that just because you want things to be one way, it doesn't in fact, make them that way.

Literally the 10th word of the headline. NPR has not been an ally in Trump II. Quit fighting with allies.

NPR headline leaves out the most important part of the piece in their headline. They called him an activist and not a credibly accused sexual predator.

When I was first starting out, I couldn’t afford to purchase a large format camera like I learned to use in my photography classes. So I built one. I also needed a tripod so I built one. This is 1989 or 90. camera-wiki.org/wiki/Bender_...

tripod that I built in my Dad’s workshop in 1990 or so.

In journalism it's called "Bury the lede"

"Bury the lede" is a journalism idiom meaning to hide or delay the most important, shocking, or vital piece of news by putting it deep down in a story instead of the opening paragraph

“My final offer is this: nothing.”

The Trail Blazers' sale will be completed in two phases. The first phase, 80.1% of a $4 billion valuation of the team, closes Tuesday, March 31.
The second phase, for the remaining 19.9% paid at a $4.5 billion valuation, will close "no later than 2028," according to Quick's reporting.

Find and Replace "Fourteenth" with "Second" "...a new circumstance that was largely unknown as of 1868 and that the Framers of the Fourteenth Amendment could not have fully anticipated. And the Framers likely would not have anticipated (and presumably would not have intended) the odd result..."

This country is drowning in guns that the framers never imagined would or could have ever been invented.

With his outspoken support the Netanyahu genocide it would have made more sense at this point. I’ll admit surprise that Bilton would join Weiss for her shameful project.

Casey Neistat expressed support for the Israeli genocide in one of his videos. It confused and angered many.

You’re wrong. They should be reading Robert Pirsig’s story of a Minneapolis to San Francisco motorcycle journey while cycling 10-20 miles a day. 😉

The Buddha, the Godhead, resides quite as comfortably in the circuits of a digital computer or the gears of a cycle transmission as he does at the top of the mountain, or in the petals of a flower. To think otherwise is to demean the Buddha - which is to demean oneself.

Summer just shows up On the Willamette River. Sometimes halos too #Photography #Haiku #MonochromeAndColor #SunHalo #RiverPhotography #SpringPhotography #LandscapePhotography #OregonPhotography #Oregon #PNW #MakeArtEveryDay #MakeToEscape

$A sun halo (or 22° halo) is a bright, white, or occasionally colored ring appearing around the Sun, caused by sunlight refracting through, or reflecting off, millions of tiny hexagonal ice crystals suspended in high-altitude cirrus or cirrostratus clouds. They often indicate incoming moisture and weather changes.$ $A sun halo (or 22° halo) is a bright, white, or occasionally colored ring appearing around the Sun, caused by sunlight refracting through, or reflecting off, millions of tiny hexagonal ice crystals suspended in high-altitude cirrus or cirrostratus clouds.

I was frustrated by a hallucination loop in Gemini so I moved over to Claude with my iterated prompt. The first reply was this hallucination by Claude. It looks like I’ll need to consult with a real human to actually proceed. I’m not looking forward to the waterfall of AI at the UC this year.
