the only good thing about genAI is that it got me to really love seeing bad art, because I know a person put in time and effort, made themselves vulnerable by showing it to others, and is trying to improve. I value that more than anything now

A new Yellowstone study shows that quaking aspens are finally regenerating & wolves are to thank. Young aspens were found in nearly 1/3 of areas surveyed.

Since wolves return, elk numbers have begun to balance out & vegetation rebounded.

If you use GMail, AI (Gemini) was turned on yesterday by default and now scans all of your content for machine learning. To turn off, go to Settings>General and scroll down. Uncheck the box for "Smart features."

There's other "Smart" add-ons as well, but that's the one that reads your content.

I bet fliers would be in a better mood if the Trump administration didn’t just rip away rules that make airlines compensate people for canceled and delayed flights.
Trump's Transportation Secretary on how to improve air travel:

"People dress up like they're going to bed when they fly... We want to push people as we come into a really busy travel season, help people out, be in a good mood, dress up"

The truth shows up in bank accounts, not in whatever delusional, all-caps post he puts up about a 'Golden Age.'
Trump can lie all he wants, but regular Americans living in reality know the truth - prices are rising, and the president's tariffs are to blame.

The Trump administration planned to kick thousands of American seniors off of their disability benefits.

We pushed back — and now, they're backing off.

Public pressure works. Keep fighting back.

The fact that he called Mamdani a communist and tried to insinuate that he's posing as Black (because racists like Trump think Black Americans are given handouts for existing), but completely avoided spouting off something Islamophobic must mean he's terrified of ****ing up that Saudi money.
