Well, I want to go here too as well. Tumar has such great stuff. I got this shrydak more than 20 years ago from a different women's felt cooperative. It's un peu garish but as tough as nails, surviving 15 years in my parents' garage. www.vogue.com/article/kyrg...

I had the following exchange with ChatGPT when it added names to a basic fav/unfav graph slide that weren't tested in the survey. Absolute monkeywork that an undergrad could have done correctly in 20 mins. Its response tone enraged me.

Is ok. Have plenty of plums.

Is ok. Have plenty of plums.
Me: Look at these plums I found. I wonder what they are?
Wikipedia: Cherry plums are a key ingredient in Georgian cuisine where they are used to produce tkemali sauce, as well as a number of popular dishes, such as kharcho soup and chakapuli stew. 🙌🙌
Too bad there are only 8 this year. 🫤

Thrilled to finally get this book, which compiles all the best writing about what it was like to be alive on the internet just before everything went so horribly wrong. An amazing document of my favorite writers. Thanks @flaminghydra.com

I walked past the fireplace in my friend’s old Provençal house, which I’ve looked at 1000 times, but never noticed the plaque. Same shape but much more charred and not as interesting
