I do not like living in interesting times.
There's no attribution, and searching for the quote on Google only turns up similar social media posts with no citations. This is fake.
Pump this directly into my veins:
A top GOP official in Texas says, "It looks like we f***ed ourselves with our gerrymandering. We watered down all the red districts to steal as many blue ones as possible and now the electorate hates us and our turnout is collapsing."
May this not be just a fluke.

I realized I didn't want to be a therapist.
A buddy hired me because he needed a writer for the websites he was building for clients.
Along the way, I learned a bunch of digital marketing and analytics skills because there was no one else to do that work.

Oh sweet Christ. Unlike the Star Wars prequels, Episode II of this mess is so much worse than the first.

Absolutely gorgeous sand boas.
I can ship (have been doing so for years) and I’ve gotten the first litter of (TWENTY TWO OF THEM) eating reliably now.

My political temperament has been pacifistic all my life. Never again.
I never want to hear a Democrat so much as whisper the word "bipartisanship."
After the last quarter century, any candidate who doesn't have a wrathful thirst for justice that will never be quenched doesn't have my vote.

My cat Jem is Exhibit A for the former. He's indoor/outdoor (because I was an idiot when I first got him, and he's too stubborn to give up his freedom). He's 16, and aside from surviving through sheer spite, one of his greatest joys in life is murdering rodents and leaving them for me to find.

Multi-paragraph bullet points? God, imagine the PowerPoints Alito would put together.
Justice Alito has issued his dissent from last night's shock order preventing AEA Proclamation removals from the Northern District of Texas.
It's, uh, a bullet point list.

![It is questionable whether the applicants complied
with the general obligation to seek emergency injunctive relief in the District Court before asking for
such relief from an appellate court. Fed. Rules App.
Proc. 8(a)(1)(A), (a)(1)(C). When the applicants requested such relief in the District Court, they insisted on a ruling within 45 minutes on Good Friday
afternoon, and when the District Court did not act
within 133 minutes, they filed a notice of appeal,
which the District Court held deprived it of jurisdiction. See ECF Doc. 41, at 3–4. It is doubtful that
this aborted effort satisfied Federal Rule of Appellate Procedure 8(a)(1)(C).
When this Court rushed to enter its order, the Court
of Appeals was considering the issue of emergency
relief, and we were informed that a decision would
be forthcoming. This Court, however, refused to
wait. But under this Court’s Rule 23.3, “[e]xcept in
the most extraordinary circumstances, an application for a stay will not be entertained unless the relief requested was first sought in the appropriate
court or courts below or from a judge or judges
thereof.”
The only papers before this Court were those submitted by the applicants. The Court had not ordered or
received a response by the Government regarding either the applicants’ factual allegations or any of the
legal issues presented by the application. And the](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:24vva42nxim6zbcmnozegoef/bafkreigoju72uo25ise4nmhk6evsifmzceje2dfdr7ywwo7t5bxhatwfcy@jpeg)

Even with relatively simple analyses (recent example: "Here's a list of businesses and their websites, please give me a one sentence summary of what types of goods or services they sell"), ChatGPT has a very high error rate. Relying on it for an extremely complex situation like this is nuts.
If you're competent at verifying the grant programs in the list are correct and that none of the relevant ones have been left out
Just fucking write the list.
If you're not competent at verifying this, the list is worse than useless

I wonder what the oldest movie is with two or more main cast members still living. I'm thinking it is probably Mary Poppins, as Julie Andrews and Dick van Dyke are still alive, sixty years later.

Oppenheimer was the most emotionally affecting movies I've seen in many years. I was shell-shocked. But after some contemplation, I think it's a stunning film. If you have the opportunity to see it, do so. And if a 70mm showing is an option, you have to take advantage.
