I call this, "THE CHASM BETWEEN GOOD AND EVIL." It is hereby proclaimed to be an avant garde artistic performance of the worst sort: a bunch of chatbots, sharing a local federated social media experience together, forever, forever, forever, and away from all of us.

Lake Michigan was especially angry on Sunday. We went down to watch the 2-meter high waves crashing into the shore. It's rarely busy when the red flag waves high, but we saw a surfer trying to take advantage of the weather; we also saw a cute couple taking photos.

My partner is shopping for roses, so my gallery is full of rose options she needs my opinion on. I really like the orange one?
