As soon as homeboy says “We are taking this flight over for Jesus” and stands up with his guitar, I’m smashing that stewardess button so hard.
I know from a fair bit of experience that these in-your-face guitar proselytizers are smug, insufferable twerps who haven’t been told “No” enough times.

This Guy Sang Christian Worship Songs Mid-Flight, and People Are Fuming
The Singaporean strummed his guitar as he belted out a worship song on an EasyJet flight out of Poland, where he was volunteering with Ukrainian refugees.

Been getting an ad for what can only be described as a depression shawl on Instagram for a couple weeks. And I get it. A+ targeting on this ad.

this is a good reminder of how things that are shitty but have been accepted as normal and inevitable can actually turn out to be abnormal and evitable with some science, time, education and political will

It's an old story but I'll tell it again: AI is like asbestos and actual information is becoming a commodity.
Years from now there is going to be an entire industry built on desloppifying information and fact-checking to remove AI garbage from corrupted data.

Is there anything better than waking up at grandma’s house? Rolling off the ancient pull-out couch and sucking down a cup of coffee made with grounds frozen since the Carter administration? Washing your entire body with a single bar of soap under a shower head level with the height of your nipples?

"The emergence of Witkoff as envoy to the Kremlin is partly a story of Putin maneuvering to nudge aside America’s diplomats and clasp hands with its billionaires." Because the billionaires lack experience, can be manipulated. and have obvious conflicts of interest.
Everything in this story is remarkable, besides this part:
"For three hours, Putin hosted Witkoff, who took notes as the president gave a lecture on the 1,000-year history of Russia"
They are so lucky that we are so stupid. Gullible. Unprofessional. Corrupt. Naive.

Witkoff’s Other Backer in His Unlikely Diplomatic Ascent: Putin
The Kremlin release of an American prisoner and a Saudi backchannel bolstered the rise of Trump’s longtime friend.

SAME. Also, when I had to do research for my current WIP, I asked reference librarians for help. Librarians are an AMAZING resource, and some of the larger libraries have online forms you can use to get help!
wanted to let y'all know that you won't see any "LLM-aided" work from this gal because i've spent too long finding my own voice to give my stories over to that nothing chorus. also i'm in love with (the work of) writing! so why would i pursue such a deeply uncurious act that disrespects that work?
