Kenyan #journalist Alvin Kaunda was reporting live from Nairobi when a curious baby #elephant, Kindani, decided to join the broadcast. The playful elephant stuck her trunk in Alvin's mouth, making for a hilarious moment! A joyful reminder of wildlife's charm and the work of the Sheldrick Trust!
The new hotness is blocking accounts that conform with one's politics but are clearly farming outrage and fear. They might be bots! They might not be! But whatever they are, they're not helping!
Can I put this here? It's getting press, and rightly so.

Noticed today that apple has also succumbed to pressure on GoA ridiculousness. I will pay for a mapping app if I must, as a matter of protest, even if only to feel better about it. Trying HERE WeGo first. No need for $ yet. Eliminated MAPS.ME
Suggestions?
This is a delight.
Hear me out: If the military does away with diversity, then it will be mostly white males in service. F47 wants to conquer other countries. Maybe this problem solves itself.
With updates to the KC website (board members) today, it looks like F47 is following through on their announcement, insofar as they can. Which is pretty far in this case. Am thinking of selling the pair of tickets I have to a show this summer. I want nothing to do with it until this over.
An old clip that is apropos of how I feel about where all this headed.

The platform owners have a stance against it. An article on Mashable claims Hugging Face has already crawled and scraped the content. Nothing on public sites is safe from theft. Even index exclusion scripts are honor system only and unenforceable.
More content like this, please. I’m all about the serotonin.
Wild. Fucking wild.
It may turn out to be that Apple finally found a way to motivate me into embracing their mapping app. Film at 11.
Guys, it’s already starting. That was quickest flip I’ve seen in…at least 4 years.
I'm sure it depends which AI you ask. If this particular AI wasn't programmed for altering art then it lacks the instructions to do so. If I ask the AI tool in Photoshop to generate a news article, it might be similarly confused. I'm glad this one was programmed to suggest human intervention first.
Sooooooooo...
Just how big is this thing? And...just how much are you set on setting me back this time?
I’d forgotten that the rules state a time period, which doesn’t begin until this Sunday. That means I’m still safe. It’s a great time of year for ear buds.
Just lost #whamageddon at DC Holiday Market. Lost track of how many years running I’ve avoided the dread song.
Now we're getting somewhere... it would be Mousse & Martinis... Braids & Brandy....
Flipboard, not clipboard.
I use an aggregator for maximum variety and have for many years. Currently subscribed to Apple News but can recommend Clipboard as a good alternative, or at least it was last I checked, a few years ago.
Synchronicity: I had this same thought coming out of my LabCorp appointment today as I stood outside the door downing a cola so I'd have the strength to drop by the grocery en route back home. Top of the shopping list: more cola.
I like the Scissors & Scotch concept. This should be repackaged for dry bars and similar stylists. Spitball with me: Scissors & Martinis? Brushes & Manhattans? Combs & Margaritas?
Still getting used to this platform but. what I wanted to say is that I'm fine with the echo. It was the algorithms and stress that I looked to escape. SM is what you make it, folks. Post wisely. bsky.app/profile/muel...
The most hilarious part is that this drivel is paywalled
As a subscriber to one of the major networks, especially if you buy the device through them, you are paying for the upgrade whether you take it or not. If you really want to be a rebel, buy unlocked and use a low cost off-brand network. H2O wireless runs around $20/month. Visible = $45.
