My brother and I say “buckle up strawberry man” as siblings code for let’s leave (bar, party, whatever). It comes from the misheard lyric in Jungle Love by Steve Miller Band.

Remember when Hillary Clinton told a story about landing in Bosnia "under sniper fire" when actually it was just a war zone but there was no record of direct fire and the media made it into a multiple-week scandal? Only Republicans are allowed to flagrantly & repeatedly lie.

My favorite use of “hot tamale”. Clipping accompanies a recipe in the Butte (MT) Heritage Cookbook.

FINES "HOT TAMALE" MEN
Judge Says They Were Shouting Louder
Than Law Allows,
Peter Pater and Pater Peter, hot tamale venders, were fined $5 cach by Judge Boyle this morning for shouting
"hot
males" too loud.
Pater Peter pro-
tested against the fine on the grounds that they paid a license into the city and were entitled to the privilege of calling out their wares to the passers-by.
Judge Boyle told the men they could pitch their voices to a certain key, but Whenever they went beyond this they would be arrested and fined.
The question now is, what is the key?

I do think “every rich person went insane during covid because it was the first time they’ve been inconvenienced in decades” felt a little reductive at first but damn if isn’t more and more compelling as the years drag on

Agree, I routinely send the bullets. That said, I often write emails that contain both. Bullets because I know recipients that won’t read past the first sentence and the paragraphs for those that need the full “story” I hate that anyone would think AI had anything to do with my bespoke methods

I saw one recently for a psoriasis or eczema medication that showed a patient with huge open cartoonish sores and an AI “doctor” talking about it. I genuinely thought there were laws about how you advertise medications and medical expertise.

Ok, here goes. I’m starting a series about how to tell if a photo is real or generated by ai. I hope this is helpful. Please feel free to reply with tells I’ve missed. Below is an ai generated “photo” that demonstrates something that’s too good to be true #birds #ThisIsAI (1/?)

What appears to be a photo of a young child standing on the beach with two gulls above them as well as a boat exactly centered above them. Text on the image says too good to be true, this is so generated, lined up too perfectly and birds don’t have shadows.

We have a corner sectional couch that has to be taken apart and put together by connecting each piece left to right and that little bugger takes a dive between the the last two pieces every couple of months. I’d try your solution, but I’m fairly sure te cat would steal the noodle-mote.

Oh my kid can and did manage it. And will vote in Nov. The people at the BOE office are delightful. We also had the time and the means to take care of it in person. Asking people in 2026 to print a form and mail it in is not trying to expand voting ease.

Ohio actively discourages absentee voting. My kid, off to college out of state, just completed the process. It involves either visiting the board of elections in person or printing, signing and mailing the form. Nothing 2026 about it al all. (Infuriating!!!)

There are academics who falsified entire Datasets for years, their work leading to FEDERAL POLICIES that have gotten less coverage. Lucy Calkins and Columbia University's Teacher's College made it so a whole generation of kids barely learned to read and they didn't get this much attention.

The Trump family’s close association with these violent rapist pigs should be a bigger scandal, as should the admin’s role in helping them evade charges in Romania and return to the U.S., where they predictably assaulted additional women.
