The Trump Administration Accidentally Texted Me Its War Plans
U.S. national-security leaders included me in a group chat about upcoming military strikes in Yemen. I didn’t think it could be real. Then the bombs started falling.

I just opened an old book and this invitation to see Mike Flowers Pops at Stringfellows fell out. From what I remember, it was quite a strange night.

Spotify has a weird random backup which you can play when you’re offline. It just followed a momentous passage from Wagner’s Ring with Eye Level. It was brilliant.

I keep seeing American posts about hunkering down and “surviving the next four years”. How about getting out on the streets?

"The next item is the withdrawal from the Paris Climate Treaty"

*huge roar in the audience*

"We're going to save over $1 trillion by withdrawing from that treaty"

"The next item is a letter to the United Nations saying that we're withdrawing from the Paris Climate Treaty"

*another huge roar*

So I get home from work and put the TV on. What the fuck is happening? How long has he been talking? I know it’s stating the obvious. But fucking hell!

ChatGPT just told me that Sid Vicious was in a romantic relationship with Nora Forster, that she was there when he died, and that she later met John Lydon because of this, and married him in the mid 80s. Amazing what you can learn with Ai.
