Left-handed, left of center, & counting on being Left Behind. Left coast, natch.

Utterly disgusted by brazenly corrupt GOP + weak response of many Democrats. Fascism incoming. 🤬

No interest in sales, self-promotion, & accounts that never interact.

SO clueless

Screenshot from the faa.gov page linked, which says: “Training requirements Entry-level applicants must complete required training courses and spend several months at the FAA Academy in Oklahoma City. Applicants are paid while in training. After graduating the academy, individuals are placed in locations across the country and must gain 2-3 years additional training, both classroom and on-the-job experience, before becoming a certified professional controller. This rigorous training includes close supervision and evaluation by senior controllers that ensures controllers are competent, professional, know their airspace environment and can deal with the pressures and high pace of the job. Specific training requirements can be found in FAA Order JO 3120.4S. “

Good morning! (My kid’s cat)

#Caturday
An orange cat with white at the neck looks up from the middle section of a tri-compartment white net bag with black handles. The bag is on a beige carpet, with a dark bedspread just behind it, plus the edge of a very soft-looking fuzzy gray blanket.

Thanks for the gift link. From the article, which is pretty much a transcript of him talking with 2 conservative women, comes this (from one of the women): 🙄
Screenshot from the gift link to the article, showing one paragraph of a response by one of the two interviewees, which says: “So I think I will restrict myself to the judgment on which I am confident, which is that the pathology in our institutions known as wokeness is distinctively feminine and feminized. And that, in a very literal sense, our institutions have gone woke because there are more women in them than there used to be.” I’ve highlighted the word “pathology” in yellow.

Wow. This article. Shot and chaser at the end:
Screenshot from the end of the Cosmopolitan article, from the end. It says “On our last day, we were walking through a park when I told him we couldn’t keep seeing each other, that I disagreed with most of his beliefs and didn’t align with the future he wanted. Confused, he replied from his point of view, we actually agreed on most things. No, I said, we didn’t, which he would know if he’d ask me any questions about myself. He still leaned in and tried to kiss me. We never saw each other again.“ Some of the screenshot has been highlighted, pointing out the key points about the guy never having asked her point of view (not the parts about where they were or that he tried to kiss her.”

Why isn’t Google showing AI Mode search results for Trump & dementia?

Turns out Google AI mode will delve into *that* question (for now)

www.google.com/search?q=why...
1st of 4 screenshots from the results for Google AI Mode search of why Google AI won’t show results for Trump & dementia 2nd of 4 screenshots of Google AI mode response to why Google AI won’t show results for Trump & dementia 3rd of 4 screenshots from Google AI mode response to why Google AI won’t show results for Trump & dementia. In this one, one sentence is highlighted: “Google previously paid a settlement related to Donald Trump's YouTube account, demonstrating that the company faces legal and political pressure regarding its content decisions.” 4th of 4 screenshots from Google AI Mode results of why Google AI won’t show results for Trump & dementia. This page says there’s inconsistency in the results for other politicians 🙄
