My wife got this papoose/sling thing for our ridiculously spoiled cat and now when we're cooking the cat throws temper tantrums and the only way to make her stop is to break out the cat bag and let her ride in it.

Raccoon guy is getting 850 to deal with my brother's raccoons. He says he has 4 other gigs lined up today, just in my brother's neighborhood. Not bad work if you're a crazy man unafraid of raccoons.

The good news is that his original play, to capture and euthanize, did not go down as planned, due in part to the man being 300+ pounds and the attic not being huge. The guy says the raccoons will leave under the cover of dark

Okay, well, the guy made it himself. Yep, there is a psychopath in my brother's house.
"He's a different breed," says my brother.

My brother didn't see him bring up the boom box. He thought the noise was real.
I asked him to ask the guy where he got a recording of a racoon being killed... Not sure I want to know.

Update on the racoon guy. He had more than a sack and gloves. He was also carrying 1) some sort of anti-racoon spray and 2) a boom box. He used the boombox to play a recording of a baby racoon being killed (!!)

Apparently the racoon man entered the attic with nothing but a sack and some gloves.

My brother discovered a family of racoons living in his roof. He called in a professional.

After a lengthy question and answer session ChatGPT said I was roughly 75% as good at guitar as Doc Watson. I might put this on a business card.

Is it foolish to even continue writing it on my own? IDK. I am having lots of feelings rn.

I've had the goal of writing a novel since I was a kid. I'm almost done with a 2nd draft now, and I can't stop thinking about how it's too late, because all books from now on will be (should be) suspected of having used AI. Will anyone believe I did it on my own?

Chat GPT just told me I speak German at a C1 level. I'm instructing it to include that on my CV now.

Earlier today I took a video of my kid walking only to find out, hours later, that I really took two still photographs. I've never felt like more of a boomer.

TFW you ask Chat GPT to optimize some text you wrote and it just spits the text back out verbatim because you're a professional writer and it's already optimized but it's going to take your job anyway.

Can't wait for the flood of SciFi books about AI that, on the last page, reveal they were written by AI.

Damn just woke up to the news about Grant Wahl and am shook. Outside of direct colleagues, Grant was my biggest mentor as a journalist. He seemed to always read my work, to always be ready with a compliment or suggestion or thoughtful critique. Just a huge influence on me. RIP.

Now I know why some of these parents dress their kids like they're on a polar expedition when it's 65f/18c. They're trying to stay ahead of the old ladies.

Was truly unprepared for how often random old German ladies would be checking to make sure my daughter is warm enough. Ladies, she is in her stroller wearing seasonable appropriate attire and usually under a blanket. I appreciate your concern but... she's fine.
