Saw this out of context and thought for a moment that the Unitarians had gone maga.

Sometimes it also needs more time to sort of… relax. Like I’ll take a dough ball, pull it out partially into a pizza shape, let it sit for a bit, and repeat another time or two.

Overworking or kneading the dough too much can cause that. It also might need a longer time to proof.

We were watching a Muppet Christmas Carol and talking a lot about how much amazing work goes into the puppets. The credits rolled and we got to the credit line for β€œMuppet Milliner” and my friend spontaneously said β€œyou know what….fuck AI to death.”

Can’t even ride β€˜em in the swamp. Just likes making kids cry.

I will! I did a poor job of recreating my Twitter following list and lost track of a lot of voices I enjoyedβ€”recreating it has been a slow process.

Thanks Dara. I enjoyed reading you at Vox in the day!

The theme song for this show fell through a time portal and was accidentally appended to Enterprise.

I'm just surprised he can post without the word "kinetic."

Let me guess. This time it’s the β€œThe Rent is Too Damn High” guy.

Yeah, the word "exceedingly" does not appear in any opinion there. Pretty strange to put those words between quotation marks.

Depends on when the Gary Hart revelations drop.

They seem to think the appellate doctrine of harmless error applies to an ongoing trial proceeding?

Alright, let's count 'em up. I'll go first:

I was going to joke about β€˜Clair Obscur’ being one, but I figured I’d first better check that it wasn’t.

Have you encountered the podcast β€œJust King Things?” A couple of nerdy academics have been reading and discussing King’s book in publication order for several years. Good stuff.

Is it good when your signature block requires an argument section?

If you’re going to expend massive political capital to keep this stuff under wraps it would behoove you to… keep it under wraps.

Much about your mad pursuit of this house becomes clear.
