You wouldn't DOWNLOAD a CAR!
Spoof on the old anti-piracy "You wouldn't steal a car" graphic that reads "You wouldn't download a car."

A group of uniformed ICE agents wearing tactical gear, helmets, and face coverings stand together in an outdoor urban area with concrete pavers and a white overhead structure. Text below the image reads: “MYTH: ICE agents lack proper training. FACT: Most have been racists their entire lives.” The Onion logo appears at the bottom center.

A white seagull stands on the edge of a beige building with a red trim, set against a deep blue sky. Above the bird, a partially illuminated moon is visible, appearing large and detailed.

This guy spit on me in Bolivia but was otherwise a charming fellow.
A man wearing a blue cap, dark sunglasses, and a dark puffer jacket with a red backpack stands facing a brown llama with a rope halter. They are on a sunlit dirt and grassy area near a small harbor. In the background, groups of people are gathered near several docked boats, some boarding or disembarking. A tree-covered hillside and a few structures rise behind the harbor, with a clear sky and distant water visible.

This image shows three app icons on a mobile device screen, likely grouped into a folder. Each icon represents a different AI assistant app: 1. ChatGPT – A white icon with a black interlocking knot design, labeled “ChatGPT” underneath. 2. Perplexity – A black icon with a white geometric pattern resembling a stylized compass rose or abstract tree, labeled “Perplexity.” 3. Claude – An orange icon with a white burst or sunburst design, labeled “Claude.” They all look kind of like buttholes. The background is slightly blurred, emphasizing the app icons.

Also, an update from the original poster.
I made a post a few days ago detailing the events in the last few months between Canada and the USA. American friends of mine seemed completely in the dark about it, so I figured I may as well. I thought 6 people would read it and go on with their lives. I vented my frustration and confusion that it didn't seem like Americans cared about what was happening. I was wrong. My post has been shared by almost 30,000 people - mostly Americans. I've received HUNDREDS of messages from Americans showing their support. Most had no idea this was happening and said that it wasn't being covered in the news. I got messages from people telling me that they cried after reading my post because of how much they love Canadians and don't want to see this happen. I got message after message thanking me for my courage in posting it, something I don't think I deserve. I didn't get a single negative message. Not a single one. A sincere and heartfelt thank you go out to the thousands of Americans yesterday that restored my faith in humanity and reignited my hope for a better tomorrow. Our Canadian and American grandfathers once stormed the beaches of Normandy, shoulder to shoulder, with that same hope. Let's make em proud.

Yeah I just saw the new article. I had checked the curbs today and they looked legit, but you mentioned they fixed some with gray paint and redid them. And lo and behold….
A sidewalk corner with a cracked and weathered concrete surface. The curb is painted gray, with a section of red paint labeled “NO PARKING” near the corner. Adjacent to the curb is an asphalt road with faint stains and marks. A sloped yellow tactile paving area is visible at the intersection for accessibility, alongside a metal pole near the edge of the sidewalk.

My cat sure loves the box her new scratching post came in.
A cardboard box lies on a wooden floor with one flap partially open. The box has visible shipping labels, barcodes, and printed text, including “SCRATCHING POST.” A cat’s striped tail is sticking out from the open side of the box.

Well that was a fun quick build and makes the #FlexRadio app on my phone just that much easier to use. The CTR2-MIDI from Lynovation.
ctr2.lynovation.com/ctr2-midi/
A black CTR2-MIDI device with a circular knob in the center and the text “CTR2-MIDI” and “Lynovation.com” displayed on a label at the top. The device has two yellow LEDs on the left side and one red and one green LED on the right side, along with three small circular buttons. The device is placed on a green cutting mat with yellow grid lines, with measurements visible along the edges. A small electronic device on a green circuit board mounted on four legs with black and silver-striped cylindrical bases topped by brass-colored pointed caps. The board features several black cylindrical components, yellow LEDs, a rotary knob, a buzzer, and a module with certification markings. A red and green LED are also visible on the board. The device is set on a gray surface, with tools and a keyboard in the background.

Sigh... yes, Slackbot....
A notification from Slackbot that reads "Hey! We love seeing you, but aren't you supposed to be offline?"

That looks a lot like how I set up my G90 case. It's a great size for it.
A yellow case with black padding surrounding a black amatuer radio, blue battery pack, and radio accessories.
