Pleased to live in a place where this is true (enough):
Eight states received “A” grades for LGBTQ safety based on their comprehensive pro-equality laws and low rates of hate crimes against LGBTQ people. **Only Rhode Island nabbed an A mark.**

"I'm offline today."
On the sofa lies the first Discworld Witches novel "Equal Rites", with a bookmark a few pages in.
She wrote her first "I aten't dead" note without realizing it yet. 😍

Octopussy: felt like it might be classic for the first half hour, then devolved into the same bland mush as the other Moore films. Man, the rewatch of the catalogue is completely changing my relationship to the memories of these films.
And I don't remember them ever actually improving from here...

AI companies are raising at valuations that require them to grow at rates that are only achievable by chasing the broadest possible market with the most generic possible product.
A company that raises at a $500M valuation needs to show a path to billions in revenue,

It has to be a platform, horizontal, aimed at enterprise, built for no one in particular.
Ever…
