Giving descendants of chattel slavery land from the plantations they enriched was the right thing to do. And breaking that promise created the racial wealth gap we're still reckoning with today.

I can't emphasize how bad an idea this is and how annoying it is for a random Copilot pop-up to interrupt your work.
“Microsoft also warns against using the AI function for numerical calculations or in ‘high-stakes scenarios’ with legal, regulatory, and compliance implications, as COPILOT ‘can give incorrect responses.’” 🤷🏿♂️
Microsoft Excel adds Copilot AI to help fill in spreadsheet cells
Get ready for some AI spreadsheeting.

Imagine being a paid shill for an organization that was busted for stealing signs *more times than the Astros* — and is currently managed by the ringleader of the #Astros system — and having this lack of self awareness.
Oh, and also an organization whose highest-paid player is one of the 2017 users

We also have an influx of spam callers to an unprecedented amount. I also pause when answering an unknown phone number because you never know when it’s gonna be spam. I was told to not say a greeting with my full name because my identity would be spoofed.
The flip side: at least Gen Z is using the phone?
(Also, I'm on a quixotic quest to bring back "ahoy hoy" when answering the phone or greeting people on video calls. Goodbye hello.)

Gen Z doesn't say 'hello' when answering the phone. I'm concerned.
Gen Z is making up its own etiquette rules when it comes to answering the phone. Some of them aren't saying "hello." They want you to first.

All the other stuff is window dressing. It's a clean bathroom and cheap gas in mostly red states along the highway. Not exactly a Green Book type business, but for me I feel safe stopping there, the kids like it, and brisket is always a good thing.
What's the big deal with Buc-ee's?

It isn't not wanting to work it out but not being able to see anything beyond the negative. I've had to find some techniques to help get out of my own hesd.
