Saw Larkin Poe open their new tour here in the #STL last week. Witih our @stlouisblues.bsky.social punching their ticket to the playoffs last night, will be spinning this tune all day. And if the team isn't calling to get the rights to this for the postseason run, what are we even doing?

Seems about right.

Happy Daredevil Day to those who celebrate!

What an absolute embarrassment to our country. Zelenskyy and the people of Ukraine deserve better. ( I'd say the US deserves a better leader, but I'm not sure that's the case right now.)

TOMORROW- Friday, February 28th is BLACKOUT FRIDAY! If you believe we are in danger of losing our Democracy forever, FIGHT BACK! Let's make our voices heard in numbers too big to ignore. JOIN US if you've had it with Comrade Krasnov. 🤬 🇷🇺 #24HourEconomicBlackout

The truth of January 6th can't be erased. Watch the pardoned criminals brutally attacking police inside the Capitol and see what some call 'patriotism.' No spin, just facts. adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/revisiting...

Anyone who would fire Jose Andres is an asshole. You will not change my mind on this.

Working up a new Xmas playlist, only uptempo/cheery songs. Mostly. Discovered this one today, definitely going on the list! youtu.be/R8YV4aelg5Y?...

A jive glossary from 1992. I think my NY resolution will be to use each of these in a conversation at some point in the year.

Things I've said today to students after their presentations: - If you use a term, you should know what it means. - Why would a tariff imposted on goods imported into the US increase the cost of operating in China? - Why would you pick Best Buy as a fast food case study?

Sometimes you have to take the velvet glove off the iron fist to make your point.

Talking to a friend tonight about the most ridiculous ideas for a funeral. My favorite is having yourself embalmed but movable, like an action figure, then selling pics with you for $10. If anyone objects, say it's for the family and call them a monster for not wanting to help. Any better ideas?

Holiday lights with the boy!

I love this a lot.

I can't send this to the person who needs it, though I SUPER WANT TO.

I wonder if Elvis Costello cares that I'm in the top 0.5% of his listeners worldwide. Or that he came in at 1 and 5 on my list. Probably not. (BTW, that Wallflowers song is a banger.)

The only two options on the the staff holiday party RSVP are "Delightfully Accept" or "Regretfully Decline." I feel like there's a very robust set of other options.

Wow. And I've seen almost zero sympathy in any of the discussion. Given the number of people who have family that were denied care by UHC, the suspect pool must be HUGE.

president tries to seize power in south korea? significant resistance. president tries to seize power in brazil? president is arrested and banned from running again. president tries to seize power in america? the courts grant him total immunity and the voters reelect him with an allied congress

FOURTH T-Day meal in the books. I think this is the most meals I’ve prepped for one holiday ever. Now to sleep until my birthday.

I can think of no better way to prep for #SurvivorSeries than another T-Day meal with the family. I will explain my place at the head of the table, demand my own personal #Bloodline acknowledge me, then dial up #WarGames. Pretty good Saturday I think.

Sticks out for Colin Brown. #72Strong

Prepped first bird of the week last night. At least three more to go. Is that weird? Does anyone else go through this many iterations in a week? Are they all done the same?

I super dislike pages that keep sending you emails weeks after you unsubscribe. I'm looking at you, @rotowire.bsky.social.

By the way, if you took the time to dive into this, THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! And if you started but didn't finish, please do! There are about 50 that are sitting as partially complete!

She got an extension for today. Still need 10 people who identify as #neurodivergent but without a medical diagnosis, and have used #AI in their job search. If you qualify, please spare a few minutes to help with research. I’ll owe you a favor! #WritingCommunity #ADD #ADHD #Autism

Man, I'm already impulsively refreshing my feed for new stuff. I'mma need y'all need to start trying harder to entertain me.

We need 12 more respondents who believe they are neurodiverse (ADHD counts!) but have not been diagnosed AND have applied for a job using AI this year. I know at least 12 of my #WritingCommunity peeps fit this criteria and have 5 minutes. Would make a HUGE difference! Due today!

"How is your weekend going?" Such an innocuous question, asked by a cashier ringing up my purchase of a bottle of Jameson, 4 pints of ice cream, and a first aid kit...

Last day for data collection, and she needs another 20 to be able to complete her analysis. Can you help us make sure her degree isn't delayed? Only takes a few minutes!

Brilliant assignment, which I'm stealing for my Business Comms class next semester. Brilliant response as well.

If only.

I just finished an AI-guided writing project. I did an adaptation of a Bob Dylan song, which the AI knew, and built out a narrative structure by chapter. I then let the AI do most of the writing. If it is any consolation to the #writingCommunity, the output was pretty terrible.

I firmly believe that writing coding notes is the whole purpose of 4-color pens. I mean, I use them for a lot of notetaking, but they are priceless for this kind of work. #python #coding

Where the F is my coffee?!? #7syllablesentence #writing #writingcommunity

This is the most important chart published in America this week. (By @dylanlscott.bsky.social)

Well that’s something. Can we haz report now?

This is my Bartisan, my personal bartender. His name is Lloyd. #IYKYK

I feel like sprinkling some positivity. If anyone would like a compliment, just let me know and I’ll hit you back.

Some of you have been asking me, "When do we get to see you doing fun emcee work again?" Well, ask no more. Join me and some super smart leaders to hear these topics: - Hiring the 1% - Disability & Neurodiversity in Hiring - AI in Hiring. This one-hour program will cram your brain full!

Worth your time to read. This is from the guy who sussed out cheating as far back as Bush-Gore. There are statistical impossibilities in key states. Considering what we have already seen happen since the election, this is way too important not to look into it. substack.com/home/post/p-...

First day on Bluesky, first blocked account. There are some trolls I don't want to deal with on any platform.

One of the local radio stations kicked over to Xmas music today. In response, I have kicked over every radio playing that station. One holiday at a time.

Official synopsis for The Fantastic Four: First Steps. No surprises, but I’m into it.

We started our foray into A.I. a few months ago, rolling out our own EB focused tool, Eidos. The more I see the space, the more it feels like a tidal wave, and most people are trying to get on top of their surfboard to ride it. But what a ride, amirite?
