Got stuck on a bizarre question as I was filling out an application for a grant-funded job skills training course: Am I the head of my household?
How the hell do I answer this? It's kind of gross. Do households have "heads"? Ick.

Reading Walter Isaacson's brilliant biography of Steve Jobs, and this line really struck me.
Jobs to Rupert Murdoch in 2010 --"You're blowing it with Fox News. The axis today is not liberal and conservative, the axis is constructive-destructive, and you've cast your lot with the destructive people.

This feels weird: If the NFL season ended today, all four AFC North teams would be in the playoffs. Only the Chiefs, Jags, and Dolphins would get to challenge them for the AFC title.

I have frequent conversations with Google's AI chatbot, Bard. It's a very helpful and interesting service in so many ways. But ask it about anything remotely political or controversial and it starts to freak out. My new game: try to pick around the edges of what it's allowed to say.

Still getting confused by the feed here. I see a bunch of comments without the original post, so there's absolutely no context. My feed is full of friends saying "Ep3 is even more so" or Neil Gaiman commenting "That's exactly what I was going for!". But like, what are we all talking about?

Rumour has it Adele is a Browns fan.
Global Music Superstar Admits To Being A Browns Fan
After Sunday's win against Tennessee, the Browns are 2-1. The city of Cleveland is riding high, and the team has made a fan of a well known pop star.

I still find myself singing this in the back of my head from time to time. Absolute banger.
It is a scientific fact that no song has ever slapped harder than the 1977 Sesame Street funk/jazz Caribbean-infused banger "Pinball Number Count" by Walt Kraemer, Ed Bogas and The Pointer Sisters

Is there like a...manual or something for this place? I have to admit I'm a little lost. How does this site work? Am I even doing this right? #nohashtags?
