1913 slang
Don’t know if it is about cotton prices going up or diseased cotton or something else.
(The Lexington Advertiser May 23 1913)
D. A. Killebrew ordered some new cotton seed to plant which have come up, and P. H. Zeigler said the cotton had a nickle on each leaf. Some of you men may not believe it but we have Mr. Zeigler's word for it. I think Mr. Zeigler ought to have the cake.

Does this duck figure mean anything on Trump’s lapel or is it just bad AI?
This is from the “Long Live the King” Trump photo posted by The White House.

I think Google AI is gaslighting me today.
Google Maps did not rename the Gulf of Mexico. This is a false claim. There was an incident in 2025 when the Gulf of Mexico was briefly labeled as the "Gulf of America" on Google Maps for users in the United States. This change was made in response to an executive order signed by then-President Donald Trump. However, the change was quickly met with criticism and protests, and Google reverted the name back to the Gulf of Mexico. The incident raised concerns about the potential for political influence on Google Maps, but Google has stated that it does not censor or change information for political reasons.
