Elon's incredibly ugly bear statue is up outside of Tesla's California headquarters. Predictably it looks like AI slop made real. Insulting to look at even in an area rife with soulless corporate "art."

pre-writing a devastating obituary for your enemy is god-tier hating of a kind you don’t often see anymore. renaissance haterism. beautiful stuff.
A Sharon Begley byline, almost 5 years after her death.
Upon hearing the news James Watson had died, a STAT reporter said in our Slack, "I wish I could read what Sharon would have written."
Incredible news: Sharon in fact did pre-write a Watson obit. And it is masterful and excoriating.

Minneapolis achievement unlocked. Traded in my 26+ year old library card for the new limited edition Prince one. Central library was doing brisk business in these this morning. Plus picked up six books!

This is probably AI versions of his truth social posts.
I'm confused about the video clips Trump is pushing out on Truth Social and YouTube right now.
They're all shorter clips on various topics, but I'm not sure where they were shot or why they were done in this style behind a podium talking directly to camera.

BREAKING: After months of stonewalling by Starbucks, unionized baristas just voted 92% to authorize a ULP strike unless Starbucks finalizes fair contracts & stops union busting.
If forced, our baristas will strike in dozens of cities on November 13 – the company's busiest sales day of the year.
