Week who-knows-how-many of responding to political spam with β€œif a human responds to this I’ll donate”. The number of human responses will shock you!

FUN FACT: Indiana constituents made 6000 calls via 5 Calls to oppose this redistricting bill.

That's the largest number of state-level calls on an issue we have seen this year. πŸ€“πŸ“žπŸ™Œ

I got a really useful "here are some clarifying questions I have, please pick from one of these directions" reply in Claude code the other day. Wish it did this more!

Jurassic Park Rebirth is a marketing premise (no one wants to watch a movie with the same old dinosaurs again!) made into a story premise (no one wants to go to the dinosaur park to see the same old dinosaurs again!)

Ah, it’s that time of the year in SF that NOAA clearly has no idea how to predict.

They should just say β€œit’ll be 90 degrees until it isn’t and then it’ll be winter”
