Candlelight vigil today at 6 to mark one month of closed doors at The Academy of Natural Sciences. Wear all black. I’ll bring candles. We’re keeping the pressure up until there is a concrete plan to reopen this museum. This is also a great time to pick up posters to distribute!

everyone's talking about Marissa's AI chatbot app. I'm not here to talk about that www.404media.co/marissa-maye...

PSA: If there is a WordPress user account without 2FA applied, it's only a matter of time until that account is brute-forced. If that account has elevated privileges, you're in for a bad time.

This week’s main story is about how more and more white nationalists, antisemites, and Nazi sympathizers seem to be integrating into the Republican Party, how some of them are currently running for office, and how old you can be for JD Vance to consider you “a very young boy.”

@nicoleackermans.com love your talk of statue junk on #TMS this am!

Parting ways with a contractor who worked for my agency is proving harder that I thought it would be. 🫠

NEWS: the Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders have unionized and the Cowboys have agreed to recognize the union

Didn't handle a pivot with some contractors as well as I would have liked. Talked to my business advisor and my lawyer about some stuff and they gave me advice that I took. Now feathers are ruffled. Not much I can do about it. Again I could have handled it a bit differently, but how much?

COMIC: “Cloaca”. Man, birds are weird enough. But that cloaca? The hell. Then again, I suppose there's a one-size-fits-all mentality going on there. I respect it, but I don't have to like it. More at newduck.com #comics #webcomics #humor

Definitely interesting as OpenAI continues to build its own search index (and core search and anti-spam systems) -> ChatGPT Search Can Draw On More Pages After A Cloudflare Pilot

Account seems back, but no word from Meta on why. Smart move by @indivisible.org to build on Bluesky, Mastodon, & direct newsletters instead of relying on Big Tech's whims. Meta needs to explain exactly what the hell happened on such a critical day. #Meta #NoKings
