Texas -- a failed state
A political stooge until proven otherwise. And not in a good way of I'm gonna secure funding or recruit top notch faculty to advance research type of having to play politics of being a University president. And I don't see anything from his background that tells me he values academics/research.

Trump’s America
How disappointing for Target especially after spending some time in Minneapolis this past weekend. Which overall on the surface seems like a pretty welcoming environment. It's gonna be hilarious if this sets precedent and bueprint for a progressive president & legislature in the future.

ChatGPT AI Tool— We all work for robots now
On one hand... there are certainly job tasks that I appreciate using LLM for and wouldn't want them to go away. But at the same time, can't wait for this stupid speculative bubble for the ChatGPT and all this over investment to burst already, self-correct, and people get serious and start to actually figure out more positive for society uses.

Weapons - Josh Brolin, Julia Garner
Not being a typical horror film fan, I did enjoy it. I appreciated the tension, the acting, the jumps in perspectives, and some of the laugh-out-loud moments. Did anyone else find the… metaphor if how children are, ummm hurt in today’s society interesting?
