According to A.i. slop, Porcelain Bobby Hill is a side-sleeping fireman. Or at least that's according to Sleep Digest Publication, perhaps the most trustworthy source on the topic.
A.i. slop ad featuring what clearly appears to be a porcelain Bobby Hill, staring dead-eyed into the camera while lying on its side in a bed and wearing a black tee that looks to have a fire department logo.  The headline: "Side Sleepers Get Achy Shoulders, Few Know This "Side Sleeper" Trick"  -- Sleep Digest Publication.
Also, there's somebody in the background with a fancy film camera filming something.  For some reason.

Every so often, when kayaking on lakes or rivers locally, I hear a distinct knocking noise from the bottom of the kayak. In my head, I know it’s driftwood or water plants. My heart always pauses and says “are you SURE.” I never ever say “come in” even as joke. What if it isn’t a plant or driftwood?

I downloaded MapQuest’s GPS app, since it still shows Lake Ontario and Gulf of Mexico, unlike the bootlicking Google Maps and Apple Maps apps. I’ll test it out for a week and give you my review.

This urgent care app offers Middle English as a patient’s preferred language in the drop down menu. I imagine a Chaucer scholar getting yanked from their university and transported by helicopter like Amy Adams’s character in Arrival. “Wife of Bath is bleeding out. We need you to interpret ASAP!”
Screenshot of a self check-in app for an urgent care. A drop down menu lists the preferred languages a patient can choose from. Languages visible in the picture include:

Egyptian (ancient)
Ekajuk
Elamite
English
English, middle (1100-1500)
English, old (ca. 450-1100)
Erzya
Esperanto
Estonian

I saw a rear window decal today that read, “Fuck kale. Eat meat.” And aside from the fact one can clearly eat leafy greens AND meat, I can’t imagine being so mad at a vegetable that I have to spend money on stickers to make sure the rest of the world knows.

I met with a Gastroenterologist today to prepare for a colonoscopy. He told me he was going to put me under anesthesia and then insert a camera in my rectum. I hope to Hell it's not one of those giant IMAX ones. 😬
