Little Caesars, the Omelas of pizza chains.
Chart showing grouped custome ratings by pizza chain. Most of them are grouped around slightly bad to to slightly good. Little Caesars is good to great but there is one truly horrible store shown.

This reminds me of my favorite fact about Sherman: marching bands were determined to relentlessly troll him by playing “Marching Through Georgia” whenever he was present. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marchin...
From Wikipedia: 

“Sherman himself came to loathe "Marching Through Georgia" because of its ubiquity in the North, being performed unremittingly at public functions he attended. When he reviewed the national encampment of the GAR in 1890, the hundreds of bands present played the tune every time they passed him for an unbroken seven hours.[59] Eyewitnesses claim that "his patience collapsed and he declared that he would never again attend another encampment until every band in the United States had signed an agreement not to play 'Marching Though Georgia' in his presence."[56] Sherman maintained his promise for all his life. However, the song was played at his funeral.”

Incredible things are happening on r/litrpg. www.reddit.com/r/litrpg/com...
Screenshot of post on the litrpg subreddit.  It is entitled "I'm finally launching!", and shows a muscular man nude to the waist from the back, facing an even more muscular and even more nude-looking minotaur."Hey guys,

Very happy to announce that after an incredible amount of work, I'm finally ready to launch my new book - "The Staff" - which is a portal fiction story about the most infamous thief in American history.

The mods have very kindly given me permission to post the first paragraph below. I've also dropped a link to the rest of that chapter for free on my Patreon.

If you have time, I'd really appreciate a quick read and any feedback you care to offer.

Thank you!

EDIT: Thanks to everyone for the honest feedback.

Just to be clear - and here's a brand-new sentence for you - no, this book does not contain gay minotaur sex. Not even a little bit.

I'm going back to the drawing board with my artist tomorrow, and we're going to make a cover that conveys more accurately the precise amount of hot minotaur sex in this novel, which again, is zero.

EDIT 2: Apparently I also owe an apology to the small (but vocal) contingent who really wanted this to be minotaur smut. Sorry to let you down."

Really sketchy and misleading fundraising email from the @roycoopernc.bsky.social campaign — they edited the sender’s name to make it look like I’d already talked to them even though it was the first email from them.
Screenshot from Gmail showing an email with the subject “following up” and where the sender set their name to “Andy, me (2)”.

(For those keeping track at home, Mark Cuban's post below is dramatic foreshadowing for Trump arresting him on a pretext sometime within the next year.)

Posted one last banger on Twitter before I finished deactivating.

There’s definitely a bunch of them who will pretend to be remorseful to get a lighter sentence, like this guy: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dominic...
Sentencing
edit
On September 1, 2023, Pezzola was sentenced to 10 years in federal prison[30] and three years supervised release,[31] less than half of the 20 years that prosecutors had sought.[32][33] In his tearful plea for leniency to the court, Pezzola said he had given up politics, telling the judge, "Your honor, I stand before you as a changed and humbled man." However, minutes after his sentence was handed down,[34][35] and U.S. District Judge Timothy Kelly had left the courtroom, Pezzola, as he was being escorted out of the courtroom by U.S. Marshals, reversed his earlier stated positions of having given up politics and of having been deceived by Trump. Raising his fist and with a smile, shouted, "Trump won!",[36][37] repeating the reason for the original January 6th protest.

The "Shipping" topic on Manifold Markets covers exactly what you'd expect.
Screenshot of Manifold Markets showing the following prediction market questions:

Will Aella be romantically or sexually involved with @Domer by the end of 2024?

Was the Francis Scott Key Bridge deliberately hit by the Dali cargo ship?

Will there be a security incident involving the Chenab Bridge (2024)

How long will the Suez Canal be closed between now and the end of 2024?

Will the US Foreign Dredge Act be repealed or reformed by 2025-05-15?

I was also surprised to hear that the campaign wasn’t talking about the felony convictions, since this is the fundraising text I got that day:
Trump is GUILTY on all 34 counts! Rush $7 ASAP (400% MATCH) to help us DESTROY him in November: forwardblue.us/l/

Most of my previous projects have been kind of slipshod, but I’m hoping to use more precise tools and plan ahead more to get better results. So here for the back panels I’m using a doweling jig to get much more precise results. This will let me join two boards on the first try if I’m careful.

Woodworking project thread: getting started on building an outdoor cabinet/sideboard for our patio. Started off with getting the wood — I went with sapele due to local availability and rot resistance.
