I beat the crap out of the bot today! I don't love how it attributes more to luck than skill, though. There was a thought process behind it, I assure you.

Why does @kasie.bsky.social have on Patrick McHenry and Rahm Emmanuel? How are they relevant? I wish they'd have fewer talking heads and more reporting from the scene. Give me news, not opinions.

Does @jaketapper.bsky.social not have a copy editor? The chyron misspelled "month" as "moth" and now they left the "O" out of Minneapolis on the video credit. These may be small mistakes, but I find it a reflection of how much people care about their job.

This new Adobe Acrobat jingle is a banger. I always wonder if people who write jingles are sad they're not rock stars, but they should be proud. I've heard some great music in commercials and video games.
