This 1990s studio portrait of the band 4 Non Blondes features (from left to right) Roger Rocha, Dawn Richardson, Linda Perry, and Christa Hillhouse posing against a draped brown backdrop. The band embodies an iconic early-90s alternative aesthetic, sporting a mix of layered flannels, beanies, leather caps, and heavy lace-up boots. In the center, lead singer Linda Perry leans forward prominently, wearing her signature tall brown top hat with silver medallions and a leather jacket, while the other members frame her in various crouched and standing positions, creating a gritty yet cohesive grunge-era look.

A perfect blue gradient doesn't exist...

Empty blue sky as seen nearly straight up minutes before noon. A light, bright, cool color starts on the right and imperceptibly darkens by a couple of shades

Drop something blue from your gallery

Shades of blue sky above a ribbon of clouds frame palm trees. A partial moon hangs in the sky even though it's bright daylight.

House sitting for this one (and her brother, who'd rather stay in hiding)

A cat with multiple patches of brown and black, in different shades of light and dark looks disapprovingly at the camera wielder - probably because he stopped giving scritches to take the photo

No one could have predicted this* *except every expert and coder who loudly predicted this only to be shouted down by the hype machine. thenewstack.io/vibing-dange...

Picture of a tweet from Leo, a prominent vibe coder declaring “guys, i’m under attack ever since I started to share how I built my SaaS using Cursor… maxed out usage on api keys, people bypassing the subscription, creating random shit on db… as you know, I’m not technical so this is taking me longer that usual to figure out.”

Slack knows the issue, as of 5 minutes ago. This is a healthy way to deal with your shit. Post often even if you don't have much of an update beyond "we're still looking." Thank you SlackHQ
