I encountered this AI gem yesterday while using Apple Support chat. I immediately told it to stop wasting my time and connect me to a human

Not sure why anyone would spend $499 a month on First Drafts. Its website contains this gem (at the bottom of its FAQ).

Every time I see a pic of one of the male spawn of Trump, I get this image in my mind.

I love that the app from @americanredcross.bsky.social gives me updates on my donation, including that today my donation helped save more than one life.

Went to see the monument to John Brown today. The US has never known a truer hero than him, and more than ever we need his inspiration.

I saw a number of protest signs around DC yesterday evening. I arrived from LA too late to join the protests.

The view from my hotel room as I get ready for ICANN82. My all day meetings start on Friday- and the opening ceremony is Monday. Crazy busy through Thursday next week.

Despite the convicted felon in the White House, I will always support the brave heroes of Ukraine.

Pic of the Orion Nebula using my new Dwarf 3 Smart Telescope. First time playing with it and located near LAX (light pollution) but I’m looking forward to playing with this more!

More dogo pics- took Shio and Pepper separately for walks today. I’m not crazy enough to take two standard poodle puppies for a walk by myself!

For my first Flash, here are my puppies playing. Shio (L) is 4 months and Pepper (R) is 11 months.

Sadly, that won't disqualify him in the eyes of the GOP.

Just hours before the high wind warning is in effect (with potential for hurricane strength gusts), a fire is already threatening Pacific Palisades and Malibu. Pic is overlooking LAX about 11 miles to the southeast (so I’m safe).
