I tried it once back when it became available publicly. Tried asking for an efficient road trip route with stops and amenities along the way. Basically multiplied trip time by ~2x compared to what I had already mapped out. “Efficient.” Yea. Made me laugh so hard. Never used it again.

Tough pick for favorite of the year, but my little one discovered Pokemon in 2025 so we had a lot of fun together. He just started his own play through now that he’s a little more confident with the controls and it’s been a blast #nintendo

In terms of submissions and queries, the most broadly provided advice that I’ve taken to heart is to read (and follow!) an agent’s specific submission guidelines. It’s an easy box to check off to ensure you’re putting your best foot forward when broaching a professional relationship #BluePitHype

Margin doodle!

A bird’s eye view of the setting from my WIP. New LA is a city built on a giant flotilla after the LA of today was swallowed by quake and tsunami. Hopefully it feels like a character, my MC’s constant companion. Sights, smells, and sounds of the sea follow her everywhere #BluePitHype

The only challah recipe you'll ever need If you don’t have the patience for breadmaking (or for baking at all), chances are you’ll still find challah, the enriched bread often served on the Jewish sabbath and during

Claire Saffitz’ recipe was foolproof: www.nrtoday.com/the-only-cha...

…has anyone just asked one of the AIs to furnish The Files? I’d bet they got swept up in one of their content ‘acquisition’ vacuums.

(This is also the only ‘morally redemptive’ use-case I can come up with. They can be shut down afterwards)

Except Stan. Stan tried stealing a life boat for himself. Fuck you Stan
