The top opinion headline in The Washington Post right now, as written by one Kentucky governor.

Glad this made it through my muted word filters because this piece is spot on, and this is a perfect example:

A hit squad flew in from Saudi Arabia, murdered Jamal Khashoggi, dismembered his body and promptly flew back to Saudi Arabia. It was audio recorded. His remains have never been found.

New levels of adorable have been achieved.

I'm reading it, and I'm regretting that I'm reading it.

Grok also seems to have misread Gov. Andy Beshear's "KYEM" jacket as "KYIV."

Flight 5342 was traveling from ICT in Wichita to DCA in Washington, D.C., when it collided with an Army helicopter over the Potomac River.

Grok had the states wrong. It had the crash site wrong. Hell, the crash didn't even happen OVER LAND.

But it gets worse.

If you go to the conversation where Grok admits to being wrong, it says the scene is similar to that of PSA Flight 5342, which was traveling from CVG in Northern Kentucky to DFW in Texas, killing 64 people on board, in January 2025.

Except...

Grok continued to double-down on its spread misinformation — even after Grok corrected itself elsewhere.

It just... appears programmed to not admit it was wrong?

I couldn’t get there fast enough, y’all.

Welcome back, Glizzy! I don’t think I’m going to let you leave this time…

Fostering dogs is such a roller coaster.

I took Arlo back to the shelter Sunday. I didn’t feel like I could meet his needs.

He is incredibly sweet, smart and knows commands, but he’s also the most anxious dog I’ve met. He needs to be assessed by ACS’s trainer so there’s a plan for helping him.

I'm tired... but not surprised.

A few things about Arlo from our first 22ish hours together:
- Housebroken.
- Knows sit, down, stay, paw & wait.
- Ball is life. LIIIIIIIIFE. Played fetch for 30 min. this morning & never tired (unlike my arm). He actually gives the ball back!
- Velcro pup must keep me in his line of sight always.

This is my new foster pup, Arlo.

ACS thinks there was some abuse/neglect in his background before ultimately being surrendered by his owner last week.

He’s very stressed and anxious about all the changes, and the injury on his noggin wasn’t healing well in the shelter. So we’re hanging out.

INBOX: Per the Tennessee AG's office, Kentucky Attorney General Russell Coleman signed on to an amicus brief in the birthright citizenship case, arguing the 14th Amendment does not provide automatic citizenship to everyone born in the U.S.

I gave a TEDx talk 10 years ago today, and in honor of that, I’m sharing my absolute favorite photo from that day.

Very funny. Sadly accurate. Highly meme-able.

At some point, you have to admire the persistence of Rep. Hart and Sen. McDaniel, even if you don't admire the policy.

Oh, that's it?
