tired: sitting desk
wired: standing desk
inspired: sleeping desk
Fancy looking desk purpose built to have a sleeping pad under it. There's a swing out door at about a 60 deg angle that has a pillow. A womand is sleeping under the desk. The desk is in a modern looking office with no other people.

Someone mentioned AI today when I was at a dairy and it took me a moment to realize they were talking about artificial insemination.

Anyway, here’s a milking robot.
A cow inside a robotic milking machine. A robot arm is attaching hoses to the cows teats. The cow is mostly obscured by the large horizontal stainless steel panels of the machine.

Left cat: Goji, Dingus

They’re foster cats and available for adoption!
Two short hair tabby cats snuggling. Left cat (Goji) has her face shoved into right cat’s (Huck’s) neck and he looks vaguely perturbed.

If you drive 100mph on San Francisco surface streets you should at the very least lose your license. WTF is this $500 fine shit? www.sfchronicle.com/sf/article/s...
Screenshot of the linked San Francisco Chronicle story. It reads: “We continue to analyze data closely and will target additional safety improvements where we see persistent speeding,” SFMTA spokespeople said in a news release announcing the May data. The agency granted motorists a 60-day grace period after the last camera was installed on June 5, adhering to state law. Come August, people who blow past the speed limit by 11 to 15 mph will face $50 citations, which would escalate to $500 for outliers who hit speeds of 100 mph.

A 1997 white Mitsubishi Delica (van) with a decal on the back that says “Universal Space Postal Service.” The van is parked near a grassy beach and has an awning deployed from the side. Under the awning is a camp chair. In the distance you can see the San Francisco skyline and the USS Hornet.

Unclear if Instagram thinks I’m going to die soon or thinks I’m a funeral home director. I blame Allison Bechdel?
