I haven't been to Wendy's since they tried to dynamically price a Baconator. Now McDonalds wants to give it a try right with [motions around] all this going on. I guess Taco Bell will end up winning the franchise wars after all.

I have been told I have an absolutely ridiculous music collection, and thought, after a few mentions from friends, that I'd start sharing what I'm listening to while I'm working. Feel free to give feedback and share some of your own as well!

As the world waits for AI to go full skynet, Aston Martin is like: Hey guys we made a moto-terminator. I like carbon fiber and billet titanium sure, but on paper this only weighs 28lbs less, and makes 3lb.ft/50hp less than my 11 year old Suzuki... But will cost as much as a house. I don't get it.

from personal experience, I can tell you that erotic mimery is perhaps the one field that really doesn’t work out here. So, you have pretty much two options: Become the host of a tourism promoting show, or become a fitness guru and make friends with Tom Petty. Either way, get that shingles vaccine.

I've passed the same school bus stop most weekday mornings for years now, and every time, I see a girl waiting for the school bus. Always alone, looking sad. Last week, 3 other kids appeared. Now when I pass, they're waiting together, and she's joking and smiling. more of this please, universe.

"Marty. Are you fixing this AI agent, or what? What do you mean you have no idea how it works? Is there like a check box to make it stop randomly saying moist? Okay... Marty says there is a check box for “Racist tirades”, and “Buy out PS5 stock or Pokemon cards”, but nothing about it saying moist."

It's easy to say "Haha! Fuck those Red states!" I live in Arkansas, and more of us voted against all this than you would think, and will continue to. But when state government systematically erodes your voice and vote at every turn, it ends up like this. Not everyone anywhere is anything.

In a town near me in Arkansas, the block goes something like this: -Gun shop/Bait shop -Vietnamese restaurant. -The "Trump House", a house covered in trump pictures with flags and banners that say "Trump House" -A behavioral Health Halfway House. (yes. next door) I think about it a lot...

Bezos on CNBC: "You could double the taxes I pay, and it's not gonna help that teacher in Queens. I promise you." Well yeah, because 2 x 0 still equals 0. And despite all your money, you still need to pop a mint after a meeting with Trump. Does A1 sauce work well with rich people?

I recently saw a quote that summed up the whole AI push perfectly: "The underlying purpose of AI is to allow wealth to access skill while removing from the skilled the ability to access wealth." None of my work contains AI. Any bad writing/editing/artwork is all me. #ai
