Damn, these tech fools just do not get being human. People don’t want data! They want fucking heart! Real human truth and connection that can only be provided by humans, not something bullshit AI pulled together!
Jeff Bezos' statement, his first since last week's layoffs: "The Post has an essential journalistic mission and an extraordinary opportunity. Each and every day our readers give us a roadmap to success. The data tells us what is valuable and where to focus."

Gov. Wes Moore (D-MD) says he was uninvited from a bipartisan White House dinner for governors
"As the nation’s only Black governor, I can’t ignore that being singled out for exclusion from this bipartisan tradition carries an added weight — whether that was the intent or not"

In the 90s, I read somewhere that you can see Spock's face in the comet tail in the #StarTrekDS9 opening credits if you stop at the right moment. My friends and I thoroughly looked for it but we never found it.😅 I do see Ben Sisko's face in the clouds in #StarfleetAcademy's "Series Acclimation Mil".

Had an urge to watch some Lower Decks last night so I cracked my blu-ray set and I gotta say, there is a noticeable difference in quality between the discs and watching it on streaming! Everything is crisper in ways that I didn't expect to notice.
Anyway, buy your favourite shows on physical media!

OTD, the Star Trek: The Next Generation episode "Lower Decks" premiered, giving viewers a first glimpse into life on the Enterprise as a junior officer. The animated series from Mike McMahan shared both the title and the basic premise... and a couple of the characters.

There will always be someone who cannot see your worth, who will underestimate you, who will undermine you. Do not let that someone be you.
