Until recently every CEO was saying "AI" and I think we'll go from that to companies pitching their products as "NO AI in this!" in record time. New category of unleaded consumer products

Matt Claman or Tom Begich?

Why?

How do we stop them from costing each other the primary - or - can we get them both through the primary, given the insanely wide Republican field?

In Fairbanks we said junior high in the 90s, and say middle today. It was 7th and 8th then, it’s 6,7,8 now. The name change happened before the grades changed.

My question is: did she choose the word “continental”, or did her editors say “no, contiguous is too confusing”?

After a lifetime in Alaska, I moved to California. I was surprised by the ways my lifestyle changed in the 'lower 48.' I was born and raised in Alaska, and then moved to Sacramento, California. My mental health improved and I feel like I can meet neighbors more easily.

Is this a cry for help?

I don’t think describing apple pie as lukewarm is a good way to be invited over for more pie.

I was going for “lukewarm”, but this is a whole different direction.

The day it came out, it crashed pretty much every coalition computer network in Iraq, Great Britain, and the US. 🤣😂

every trans person i see post about the OU suspension knows that the suspended target is trans & a grad student, & has an innate awareness that this is about purging trans employees. every cis person i see thinks the target is a rando professor & that this is about giving conservatives good grades

I’m not a particularly big fan of the government of Israel, but you’re leaning pretty far into anti-semitism, and that’s not cool.

The vanquishing of Military.com. Former staffers say a new owner dealt the respected publication a death blow when service members and veterans needed it most.

This has made zero rounds through my mil-community.
