Took our K students to the central library today and their excitement over books and the beauty of the space was so lovely! Free field trips rock but if you’d like to sponsor a future trip for our babies… let me know ❤️

To me, the biggest tell that AI is massively overvalued is that Big Tech has to keep shoving it in our faces. I just noticed Chrome has a 'Gemini' button at the top of the browser, and I'm getting prompts all over the place, including Zoom, to 'try AI.'

Julie nails the problem here. The press lets him get away with this shit all the time, showing zero support for each other. It's what has allowed him and the White House to just lie and insult people with impunity. Shame on all of them. This is absurd.
I just watched the whole video, and not a single reporter stood up for her. Everyone just pivoted to asking questions on other topics.
This is shameful.
This is shameful.
When asked if there was anything "incriminating" in Epstein's emails, Trump pointed a finger in a female reporter's face and snapped. 'Quiet. Quiet, Piggy.'

Surprising no one, the person who answered the phone at McGuire's DC office could not tell me how he plans to vote tomorrow on HR 4405, the Epstein Files Transparency Act.
If you're a VA-05 voter, his number is 202-225-4711 so you can share your thoughts.

It's not.
The ultimate luxury is community. These people keep paying more and more for isolation when we know from research that we need community and that small pleasant interactions, like with the grocery store clerk, are really important.

VERY windy conditions, low fuel moisture, and very dry air today will lead to critical fire danger across all of central Virginia through this afternoon. A *red flag warning* is in effect until 6pm Sunday; outdoor burning is HIGHLY discouraged.

I was approached by a lady outside the gym today while parking my bike. She was likely in her 70s. She had such great questions about the bike and then proceeded to tell me about her ebike.
She told me that she rode over 600 miles on it last year and was so proud of herself. She was so happy.
