Got a new 256mb pixel 9 on EBay. Perfect condition. Feeling super savvy. Didn't give into the Verizon - get a free phone with little memory. I might seem all high tech but the last time I got a new phone my kid was in eighth grade and she's currently graduating high school this weekend.

What if the next time you come across an outraged woman, you have her back without question...let's try this for a while.

T money telling off the reporter in Wisconsin reminds me of all the stereotyping about women...but I'm talking about him. Here it goes... So emotional, almost hysterical. And then always so dramatic with the insults and storming off. He might just be unstable or maybe it's the hormones.

In Mississippi, lawyers on both sides of a court case were caught using AI, essentially two LLMs arguing against each other. The judge dismissed all lawyers from the case and canceled the trial: www.404media.co/judge-learns...

Help me learn more about the environmental impact of AI data centers. I'm *aware* of debate here in Wisconsin front and center, AOC statements and visual aids, generational refuse to use Aligning with sustainability values, what else l should I read or learn about? Nothing too in depth yet.

TMZ reporting on the pope’s encyclical was not on my bingo card.

Did Wisconsin just get all the data centers or what?!!! Why am I just finding out about them?

Music has always had the ability to speak to us, and for us, in a way nothing else can. That’s why, if you want to understand the last 250 years of American life, one of the best ways to do it is to listen to the music that defined them.

Do you know I actually think that these people are so inoculated from any public sentiment that they are legitimately shook by a handful of boos at commencements this week?
