Smith is so careful. If I were asked about my staff’s texts, I would probably say “I don’t know why they said that,” or something similar that could be read as a weak denial. But he waited, and instead the moment unfolded into the Schmitt self own. Patient and smart. Excellent

Just helping with editing here. These bots aren’t sentient. They’re doing what they’re programmed to do. OpenAI, a private company supposedly bound by laws, committed federal crimes.

I not sure my kids appreciated my “My sciatica is bothering me today and I am butt-hurt about it” joke. Moms can make dad jokes, too! Sciatica=no fun ☹️

Yoda lit that tree on fire from the Other Side, so maybe they can do things if they practice really, really hard, like Patrick Swayze?

I found a package of seeds in chair cushions the other day. No I didn’t look there when I lost the seeds because who would? I wasn’t even looking for them anymore when I finally ran across them. All this to say you’re not alone and good luck!

My daughter teased me about my analog watch until her smart watch ran out of power. Was I mature enough to not say “I told you so”? No I was not. I also pointed out how much prettier mine is. 😁

Just a little hole in the wall. My dad used to go there. 😁 It changed hands a few years ago, but it’s still going. My sister says it’s had some improvements too

I wasn’t there, but family (in the suburbs) said that there was concern about the Sears Tower being a target. Not unreasonable, probably. The small military base I lived on ramped up security but I don’t think we were ever on a “we’re next” type lockdown.

I haven’t thought about Del Taco in years. Seems like it was the only fast food in the tiny town I lived in. There was a Cornet store too. All the memories breaking loose tonight!

I would think about resigning if I were the Fed guy. Who wants to work for someone that froths at the mouth when he mentions your job? How long until ICE shows up to “negotiate” a rate cut?

You know what’s nice? When a dog moves from one end of the couch to the other, knocks a pillow to the floor, and squishes in just so she can touch you while she naps🥹
