This is an ad for Hostas. Let’s be clear: there are no Hostas that look like this. It is an AI fabrication. Even in things as mundane as #gardening, AI is falsifying the marketplace.

I remember the first time I saw “The Natural” in the theater. There was a scene late in the film where Roy Hobbs/Redford appeared in the locker room. The sunlight lit up his head from behind like a saint. And Redford broke into a broad grin.
I heard a woman behind me say softly “oh, my God.”

On this day in 1944, this was what Parisians saw. It was when American military forces fought fascism, not trying to impose it.

@universalhub.com As the appropriate pronunciation of words has currency. In Massachusetts, isn’t it an appropriate time for a reminder of the correct pronunciation of Elbridge Gerry’s last name?

I have no problem with #GavinNewsom fighting with the same weapons that the #Trump fascists are using. It is the “Chicago way” kind of fight. But I don’t understand how it will succeed. The House GOP won’t seat the #California delegation. They might not seat the #Massachusetts delegation either.
