I used Co-pilot AI to remove red-eye from a photo because I can't find the old tool, and now I feel dirty. I've already used enough water so a shower will just make me feel dirtier.

Stephen Lewis was unlike anyone else I've met. Nobody does righteous indignation like Lewis did. His vocabulary, eloquence, compassion, passion and persuasiveness were remarkable. When he spoke at our college, many students and staff wanted to quit and go work with him in Africa. What an orator!

I was looking for something to post for #InternationalWomen'sDay, and boom there it is. On Bluesky this topic is classified as "Entertainment". Anyway, have a good one, sisters. I appreciate you. #IWD2026

Is anyone else sick of websites and apps that don't work? I am tired of contacting support because of faulty login processes, webpages that don't load/lack info. I've also NEVER met a chatbot that provided any useful information. I try several devices and modes before bothering support. I am fed up!

Anthropic has publicly stated that it will not support the use of its AI for domestic surveillance or for lethal actions without human oversight. The contrast is hard to ignore. Many people are deleting the ChatGPT app. For those looking for an alternative, downloading Claude by Anthropic.

Boycott OpenAI! OpenAI and its CEO, Sam Altman, announced Friday that the company reached an agreement with the Department of Defense to deploy its AI models on a classified network just hours after Trump ordered federal agencies to phase out rival Anthropic.

According to the New Yorker, Donald Trump and his family profited off the presidency by an estimated $4 billion in 2025 — mostly through shady crypto deals. That amounts to $456,621 per hour. But how are you doing?

“He remembers ICE agents pulling him from a friend’s car outside a St. Paul shopping center and throwing him to the ground, handcuffing him, then punching him & striking his head with a steel baton. He remembers being dragged into an SUV and taken to a detention facility, where he was beaten again.”
