Hi, I’m a website, product, or service you’ve relied on for years without incident. Great news: I’ve now been revamped with a mandatory AI component that makes me unusable.

These preening Oystercatchers are from Bird Portraiture (“How To Do It” Series No. 35) by noted British naturalist artist & illustrator Charles Tunnicliffe, published in London & New York by The Studio in 1945. The illustrations come from the chapter on “Poses and Action Studies."

A coworker was trying to set up a space heater in a classroom instead of adjusting the thermostat
I get constant requests to adjust the thermostat because I have the key to the lockbox on my keychain. Nobody has found the labeled key that is available to the whole staff on our key board.

Update! The restaurant now has a 1.3 star rating.
sometimes I like to check in on the restaurant in downtown Milwaukee that has a 1.4 star rating on google reviews, just to see if the rating has changed. Nope!
