It's cheesy, but my wife and I work from a home office, and looking up, well, it's definitely her. I'm often reminded of the James Taylor song:

Sweet cheeses, this B.S. is actually on her account. Here's the full tweet, and here's an obscured link to the original (I refuse to directly link to that sh**hole):

So you're saying...I must never restart Teams, ever again. Tricky.

(I have to use Teams for a client.)

So my feed tells me the original Frankenstein film was released on this day 96(!) years ago.

I decided for some reason to watch the opening credits, and this jumped out at me.

You do you, 1931. You do you. 🙄

Thinking in interstellar terms, 3I/ATLAS came AMAZINGLY close to the Sun.

Only the third interstellar object we've seen come through the solar system (obviously there have been others, we just haven't seen them). Just wow (he said profoundly).

Sounds great, but before he can "[build] an international coalition of centre-left leaders", he has to BECOME a centre-left leader, instead of a well-right-of-centre whatever-he-currently-is.

You mean this irritating prompt? Yeah, I've disabled Gemini for my organization and yet...it's still there, 21 hours later. Infuriating, I may finally have to use Thunderbird.

I'll let you know if I find a way to disable it. Would you ping me if you do? TIA
