Fyi the reason a lot of others will often say 'appears to do X' before a conviction is recorded is because rich fuckers can bankrupt outlets very easily regardless of who wins in a court of law

Has anyone used the iPhone call record and transcribe feature a bit? Recording works a treat but the transcribing is super buggy. I don’t know what I’m doing wrong. Just a lil spinning wheel and not much else. Is it too long? Help!

Young in their teens and 20s, especially men, are spending more time alone than in previous generations. They ""now hang out about as much as someone 10 years older than them did in the past." Interesting data from

After months of putting it off, I’ve finally migrated away from Wix and its insane price hikes to a new platform for my portfolio and personal web presence. It’s called Journo Portfolio and it’s simple and intuitive but fairly impressive. I whipped this up in a few hours:

Jan 20, 1961. A blizzard the day before. Temperatures well below freezing. Without a coat or hat, JFK gave a speech we still quote today. Robert Frost, 86, recited a poem. Steinbeck and Hemingway and Rothko were among the VIPs. A million people gathered in the cold to hear it. This is the precedent.

I got hit up to do an opinion poll tonight. It was all about politics - who I prefer, who I usually vote for, bla bla bla. Then it was all about climate change anxiety levels. And THEN my thoughts on a possible election commitment to offer everyone free rooftop solar. Now that would be something.

I don’t get the confected blind outrage from conservatives about Michelle Obama ditching Trump’s inauguration. Aside from the fact he was horrid to her and her family for years, didn’t Trump not go to Biden’s four years ago?
