haven’t seen ROS or Solo but this seems like a pretty ball-knowing list from Pritzker, particularly if he volunteered the name “Star Wars” rather than “A New Hope”

My Epstein files skit is doing pretty well — thanks all for watching, liking, commenting and sharing! Still a few who don't get that it's a bit, which I chalk up to a combo of me doing a good job making the video, and them doing a bad job watching it. youtu.be/Zs9isUS1D5k

I just got one of those "Ask Anything — Really" emails from ChatGPT. Does the vibe of sweaty desperation mean it's growing closer to actually becoming human? Seems like if the product is as good as its owners say it is, they wouldn't have to beg people to use it.

Today is a good day to remember, and to say, that the #MeToo movement was right, and was righteous, and has been vindicated over and over again. There was no overreach. There was no excess. There was no they-went-too-far.
So much work remains to be done.
