Well, it's about bloody time! #GeminiArgon
We’re rolling out Gemini 4 Argon in Antigravity to paid Google AI Pro subscribers today. Demand has been incredible and we've scaled capacity deliberately to get here. We’ve rolled out a separate weekly-only Argon quota for Pro on top of the existing Gemini bucket for 3.8 Flash so you have the best of Gemini for all your tasks.
Can you imagine the damage that could be done if we phase an entire hour out of sync with astronomical time centuries from now before it gets corrected? What were these scientists thinking? The entire world could be destroyed in less than an hour! My word! 😱
Please do this. It'll take just a single minute of your time:

Started playing @HogwartsLegacy on @amazonluna and now I'm hooked. I guess you could call me a #gaymer now? I even went and bought an @8BitDo controller, just so I can game on my TV. Who does these things? =b

Town of Bloomfield, CT cuts 224 seconds out of official Aug. 24 Town Council recording — the stretch right after vote to go into executive session, where Town Manager Alvin D. Schwapp, Jr is caught on live feed praising the mayor’s meeting management, saying “There is no f***ing reason for these meetings to go past 8:30,” & yelling at the public still in chambers.
Hours after a formal preservation demand and press questions, the entire video is set to private.
We have the original broadcast. They don’t get to erase the transition footage just because it’s uncomfortable.

Didn’t order anything. Wasn’t expecting a package. Opened the mailbox and this black envelope was just… sitting there.
Pulled it open and realized it was the X debit card I requested.
The presentation is ridiculous. Matte black, perfectly engineered fold, the card revealed like it belongs in a jewelry box instead of a bank envelope. I’ve never received a debit card that felt this considered. It doesn’t just arrive — it *arrives*.
@X
@XMoney
you didn’t just mail a card. You designed an experience. Top drawer all the way. Tap into everything, indeed.
Wow, you had me worried for a moment there. Guess I'll open my window to look out at the Willow tree and breathe a sigh of relief. Whew! That sure was a close one. No use wallowing around to check the windflow so I might as well withdraw for the night and check my workscrew workflow to ensure my worldview is still able to be carried by my wheelbarrow tomorrow or if it needs a new woodscrew. 🤷🏻

A Tale of Two Defeats
In one month:
• FOIC rules Bloomfield Town Council broke open-meetings law
• SEEC finds no probable cause on the Town Manager’s criminal complaint against a sitting councilor
• Town paid ~$30k to an outside PR firm while running a $632k in-house communications shop
The July invoice billed for “the mayor’s vision” and “the mayor’s leadership.” The signed contract said “the town.”

3/ The PR contract
Town Attorney initiated the Adams & Knight engagement. $7,500/month (discounted to $5k).
June invoice: crisis plan development. July invoice (month of the closed session): messaging for “the mayor’s leadership.” Later invoices revert to “the town.”
In-house communications office already budgeted at $632k.
4/ The manager’s own residency + the silence
Same Town Manager who pressed the residency case against Mahon is registered to vote in Simsbury. Town Charter requires the manager to reside in Bloomfield. Asked twice. “No comment.”
Written questions to Town Manager, Town Attorney, Mayor, and outside counsel. Deadline set. Follow-up sent. As of publication: zero response on the ruling, the mandated training, or whether the Town will appeal.
