Dear movie theater: Why are you showing me *four ads in a row* trying to convince me that going to the movies in person is great? I. Am. Already. In. The theater!

Normally I like the way my neurodivergence works and don't experience it as a disability, but earlier today there was Too Much All At Once and my brain did a meltdown/shutdown thing. Not the first time it's happened, but the first time I've known what it was as it was happening. Whee.

Snow is good but broken trees make me sad. :-( Lovely crabapple tree in front of out house lost a big branch. On top of the huge amount that got taken off when they pruned it last fall, it's like 1/3 as much tree as it was a year ago.

Anybody who thinks cats are antisocial has never had one yell at you because it's bedtime and he wants everyone to come to bed instead of whatever human thing you're doing.

Mysteries of the hotel: Why are hotel towels so much better at drying you off than anything you can buy for the home? Who decided that the primary selling point for consumer towels should be "soft and fluffy" and not "good at drying"? And what can be done to make them answer for their crimes?

Mysteries of the hotel: Why is there marketing on the shampoo? There are no other options to choose from. I can't go out and buy it; it's exclusive to the chain. And if I brought my own, I'm not going to switch b/c the bottle says "nourishing" and "provitamin". Who is this ad copy *for*?

I just finished re-reading @dlelandwhite.bsky.social 's book Exile In Guyville. It's very funny and I enjoyed it very much. And I admit, I got a little choked-up at the end. Thanks, Dave. You're a good writer, and if you ever write another one, I'll buy it for sure.

I honestly believe all LLM results should come with a disclaimer reminding people that the thing doesn’t (and absolutely cannot) know any facts or do any reasoning; it is simply designed to *sound* like it knows facts and frequently sweeps some up accidentally in the process.

No, you needn't be a fighter. Fascists hate art and philosophy which expose their lies, so draw and write if that's your strength. Be more punk, more queer, and more rebellious on the daily with whomever you meet. Just don't remain silent, don't remain passive. Push back.

Zero fare transit improves the experience of all riders by making boarding frictionless, it also improves the safety of drivers and transit personnel by removing fare conflicts. Transferring spending from fare enforcement to funding zero fare is straightforward.

Deadpool and Wolverine: enjoyed it very much! Full-on snort-laughed at some of the jokes. Two thoughts: 1) There were a lot of very fan-servicey choices that worked well. I think they were thoughtful and deliberate (& didn't pander), and integrated in a way that actually made it a better movie.
