Oh, I agree that they are a problem for her. What I don’t understand is why they’re a problem for Carney or why he’d be in incentivized to do anything to placate them.

I believe the argument is “We paid a lot of money to add AI features into our product and we would like to pass those costs onto you so pretty please can you buy it already?”

Tomorrow we have a 3-year old's birthday party and a trip to the library. Sunday I'm doing lunch with a friend and then Eileen has a friend coming over for the afternoon. Oh, and D&D tonight! Should be a good weekend.

UCP: There are bad parents out there and that's why we can't trust parents to allow their kids to receive gender-affirming medical treatment.
