Sorry for missing the attachment in your earlier email in this dozens-long thread! I think that this is probably due to email being an absolutely crap way to manage a project.

Motion to start calling non-studio classic albums "mixtapes". Bruce Springsteen's Nebraska? Mixtape. Paul McCartney's McCartney? Mixtape. Fuck it, why not, makes just as much sense.

Holy shit. This company claims it has developed an air-source heat pump with a COP of *7* (3-5 is considered good). For you non-nerds, that basically means it produces 7 units of heat for every unit of electricity it consumes. How are they doing it? You're not gonna like this answer, but: it's AI.

Walking around while my daughter takes horseback riding lessons is a little fraught when it’s in the same spot as Markoff’s Haunted Forest. Never know what you’ll find around a corner.

The laws of war are not mere niceties. They are lessons from centuries of blood agreed upon to keep the world more stable.
Violating them isn’t hero cop who cuts through red tape to get things done, it’s psycho cop who crosses lines in ways even the rule benders find appalling and must be stopped.

Remember the time Obama personally caught a fainting woman during his speech — rather than just blankly staring like a sociopath?

If the sandwich don’t split, you must acquit
Defense says that the officer's testimony was "very questionable" because he said the sandwich both exploded in spray of mustard and onions and also landed in its wrapper on the ground.

Yes, but…said elites don’t really have the choice. As long as they’re getting engagement on X, they’ll continue posting on X. And for places like my org, there’s also an argument to be made for continuing to post truth in a place so often filled with misinformation.
The authoritarian takeover of X was a harbinger of the regime’s strategy for America at large.
Bluesky is a perfectly adequate refuge for X exiles. The biggest problem with Bluesky is that so many political and media elites are still on X. That’s not Bluesky’s fault—it reflects poorly on the elite.

My head keeps trying to tell me this is true:
John Krasinski played the US version of Martin Freeman’s character in The Office.
Martin Freeman is British.
Emily Blunt is British.
Therefore, it’s Martin Freeman who is married to Emily Blunt.
NOT TRUE, BRAIN.
