What series of events led Dave’s Hot Chicken to use AI to generate their nutrition info?

Extremely similar vibes.

HUGE turnout at the Milwaukee No King's Protest. Easily 20 blocks of marchers, all having a good time.

Lots of great signs.

Did you see in Montreal that they open up the F1 track to cyclists? I stumbled across it on a long walk and was delighted.

Went to a Pynchon book launch party with other Pynchon nerds and won a Pynchon quiz and won Pynchon swag. Peak 40s, all downhill from here.

Does anyone here like Thomas Pynchon, live in Milwaukee, and want to join me for the @boswellbooks.bsky.social release party at Harry’s tonight?

I think about this Astead Herndon interview with a Trump voter shortly after the election ALL THE TIME. Her argument was that you hear extreme things from either side, but she basically acknowledges in the interview she voted Trump for selfish reasons despite concerns about his extremism.

Ok I was technically correct but missed some details…

Man do I miss walking in London, though.

Reading this at bedtime with our gals and our youngest said “that’s clearly a ladybug.”

This @theonion.com article from the print edition in August pairs PERFECTLY with this.

“White House Maid Shrieks After Spotting Melania On Ceiling”
