I like football 🏈 *sometimes* but football *talk* is boring, tedious, and often ridiculous.

We had Seven Peas, which was just seven cartoon peas that made various noises when you clicked on them while music that sounded like an off-brand "You Are the Sunshine of My Life" played in the background, and damn it, we LIKED it!

AI cultists are the number one thing wrong with AI. Those of us who grew up watching Star Trek, not to mention numerous sci-fi novels featuring sentient machines, have been waiting for AI all our lives. It's hugely disappointing that this is what we get. futurism.com/artificial-i...

You guys want to hear a short but adorable story that happened right in front of me at the baggage claim in NYC yesterday? I wasn't part of it and there are bits I didn't catch but holy crap, I can't stop thinking about it.

It won't let me read the article and I don't know what "Woke 1" is but in every ideological group there is an intolerant lunatic fringe that spoils the reputation of the whole group even if they are not truly representative of that group...

Over 50, what skills or talents have you lost? Me: I used to be able to touch every part of my back. I never needed help with zippers and there was never an itch I couldn't scratch. But now the spot that always itches is out of reach.

I am 99% certain the Razorbacks are going to lose tonight but here's hoping they will at least lose in a spectacularly entertaining way. The kind of loss that makes you go, "What the f--- did I just watch?" 🏈

This shirt brought to you by, "Colors may appear different on different devices." I needed red. The color name was Flame red. It looked a perfect bright red. But it's actually orange. So I have a surprise orange shirt. (More details in ALTs)
Mirror selfie wearing an orange long sleeve shirt. Not my best work. The buttons are not quite centered and the topstitching is terrible but that's okay it's mostly going to be staying home.I had used this pattern once 20+ years ago and wasn't thrilled with it. The collar is extremely narrow. Very weird. For this version I fixed the collar problem and left off the waist darts for a comfortable casual shirt. Also made the sleeves a little different. I dislike button cuffs so I made it without. I lengthened the sleeves just a bit and made a generous pleat on the back of each sleeve.

Listen, if You-Know-Who can rename things whenever he feels like it so can I. From now on Artificial Intelligence is Artificial Ignorance. See? We don't even have to change the initials.

I hate when I need to make fun of something I saw on TV but I can't find a picture online. One of the NFL players arrived at the game wearing culottes. Okay, allegedly suit "shorts" but they were very wide legged and came to somewhere below the knees.

I have been fortunate. The worst I've ever experienced was inappropriate comments. I don't know what I would do in a situation like this. I like to think I would have some loud and aggressive words but in reality I'm more easily intimidated than want to be.

Last night we watched the 2nd ep of Best Medicine. After ep1 I didn't like it much. The doc was rude & the townspeople were annoying but ep2 revealed a bit of the doc's back story which revealed him as a more sympathetic character. And Annie Potts is delightful as always so it's worth a chance.

Judge not. Unless it's regarding images you suspect of being AI, even if the poster had no idea it was AI. Then you must judge and block. I guess from now on I never repost any images and only post photos I took myself and even then never anything that looks a little odd.
