Didn’t say it wasn’t! But I want to understand the magnitude.

Not belittling NOAA, it’s vital and likely made a huge contribution—but I’d also like to see how much Great Lake freighter traffic we had pre-1975 vs now. There’s a lot less industry in the Rust Belt these days.

i think this is key. taking the deal would amount to taking the blame. it would turn a clear political victory into an unambiguous defeat.

Called Schumer AND Gillibrand for good measure. Second time this week for me for Schumer. I think it will be time to make those calls daily if we make it through tonight.

I don’t think that will do it in NY, they’ll see it as one fewer obstacle for them to install who they want in primaries generally.

I’d do the same if NY didn’t positively neuter the voting power of anyone outside of the Dem party.

I get off work at 2 tomorrow, anyone wanna meet me at Schumer’s Buffalo office?

I have a sinking feeling this is AI. Why is the coyote galloping like a horse?

Dick Cheney dead and Schumer shitting bricks. Not a bad start to the week.

Spent the entire World Series feeling completely ambivalent between these two teams but after that 9th inning I’m somehow going to be completely gutted if the Jays lose

Ooof. I don't even follow baseball, and that hurt.

People on here will post anything. 'Baseball games have 9 innings.' No they don’t. That isn’t true.

the "are ya winning son" meme with the stick figure dad checking in on his son playing computer, only its the edited version where the son is laying flat on his back on the floor crying responding "no"

All of my mutuals watching baseball right now, regardless of team affiliation:

I can't believe I'm watching a baseball game. 2025 is *wild*

I live adjacent to Elmwood and got a ton. Did self-serve from my porch (with skeletons pointing at the bowl), while I was inside in the warm. Way more than last year.

Maybe l’ll write in the Portland Frog.

Maybe a “Fuck ICE” for good measure?

First world behavior, right? Woohoo

WTAF. I had UB undergrad coverage ‘10-‘13 and Research Foundation coverage during my Master’s ‘13-‘15 (my dad was retired, so parental insurance wasn’t an option). I don’t know what I would have done without it. Grad students make so little money. It’s becoming only accessible to the wealthy.

They’ve run a few (but not enough). Tbf they’re a shell that’s been gutted by gannett.

- every time I ask AI to cite sources, there’s at least one fake source.
- this ignores the fact AI takes in data and assembles answers based on probability. No guarantee that it will spit out the info in those sources correctly, no matter how curated your dataset.

And yet when I was with my mom at the ER earlier this year, the doctor asked AI a medical question. In front of me. 🫠

Aren’t these concrete?

Ignore me, Sliwa is dropping some BARS (don’t vote for him, though)

Me: “It’s worth tuning in to the NYC mayoral debate long enough to see Curtis Sliwa being completely sidelined.”
Partner: “Who?”

My only excuse was growing up in a Fox News household. Being exposed to the nascent MAGA movement (“close all the libraries!” - Chris Collins. “[unrepeatable racist shit]” - Carl Paladino) in WNY cured me of it. Plus an education and general development of human empathy.

I was a College Republican circa 2009…then my frontal lobe developed, I learned what the people around me really stood for, and I wasn’t anymore.

Don't worry, guys, we'll change nothing and next year will be better.

If Josh gets hurt on this lost cause of a drive I swear
