Can we go ahead and make AI and virtual assistant robo-calls illegal and punishable? That'd be great, thanks.

Out tomorrow -- still open to hearing theories before the issue drops
Before HECTOR PLASM: HUNT THE BIGFOOT #2 comes out this Wednesday and reveals part of the mystery, I would love to hear your theories. What is the secret of Monkey Ridge? Why is Bigfoot -- or *is* Bigfoot -- suddenly murdering people? Is Hector responsible somehow?

I hope that the Zelda movie stays true to the game’s roots and doesn’t give Link any dialogue whatsoever.

If they are being honest? I cannot emphasize enough what a terrible idea it is to use "the machine that tricks people" to generate "placeholder material" you intend to replace. You are just making everyone else's job harder by effectively hiding what needs to be replaced

For 8 months, Abbott denied Houstonians representation in Congress by delaying a special election date after Sylvester Turner's passing.
His betrayal continues, now refusing to set a runoff date. Whether on rising healthcare premium costs or releasing the Epstein files, Texans deserve a voice.

Vacant Houston Congressional seat could play key role in Epstein vote
How fast Houston's vacant congressional seat gets filled could determine when the U.S. House votes on a bill to force the release of more files related to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
