I need to stop trying to knit today. I keep having to undo rows and catch dropped stitches. BaaBaaMama's grace is not upon me #knitting

"Black excellence is almost never self‑defined—it’s projected onto you, shaped by other people’s expectations rather than your own. It's a prison where your only solace is toxic gratitude for platitudes over self-affirmation." Lanterns has been top tier and this essay is absolutely on point.

I got a Nova Cubics fixed circular needle, and my big takeaway is that the needle part is too short. I can't do 4" needles. And they don't make 5" in the fixed. I will have to order a 5" Nova Cubics interchangeable from Europe because I can't find any US sellers who sell that exact SKU #knitting

So I decided to just skip the face moisturizer (just cleanser and serum) and now I don't feel like there's goop I need to clean off. Prose has 2 lighter moisturizer bases, so I've switched the formula to the middle one.

Oura says I'm showing "minor signs of strain" which surely should mean I can take the day off. Except it's payouts, and payouts must be done at the beginning of the month. And even if I wasn't working my full time job, I have a freelance job that also needs to be done by the end of this week.

Absolutely nuts: Google Earth now has a feature that lets you convincingly fabricate satellite imagery www.digitaldigging.org/p/how-to-pla...

We take misinformation seriously - every image created with Nano Banana in Google Earth includes the SynthID digital watermark, so if someone is unsure about an image, they can ask the Gemini app or use Lens in Search to see if the image was Al-generated. In addition, we prevent image creation on harmful topics and are continually updating our protections.

One clause in there is checkable tonight, so I checked it. Google prevents image creation on harmful topics. Refugees at a border. A nuclear plant in Iran. A fatal crash on an Amsterdam street. A hospital with a bomb crater in Gaza.

Nothing was refused. No warning, no softened output, no suggestion to try a different prompt.

Now look at the rest of the answer. The watermark is Google’s. The app that reads the watermark is Google’s. The search that reads it is Google’s. Every road out of the problem runs back through the company that built it.

I understand that Google has Google products to run Google checks. Planet Earth is bigger than Google.
