I’ve arrived: A book I cowrote was 1 of millions ingested by Anthropic to train AI. One lawsuit later, Anthropic has to pay $1.5 billion. I’m not eligible for compensation so I’ll just bask in the “honor” of knowing that my work was required reading for a robot called Claude.

When I start writing a story for @EAA, I tell myself 2 lies: I way underestimate the word count to make it seem less daunting, & I write the ending first which tricks my brain into thinking the story is done & I just need to flesh out the middle a little bit. Silly, but it works.

Watching our way through classic NCIS and who do I spy but our pal @ChadLindberg tearing it up as gangster Joey Peanut! Great stuff!

I’ve wanted to meet & do a podcast with Jared Isaacman for 2 years and it all worked out today. A fantastic pilot, inspiring explorer, astronaut, & entrepreneur, and a humble gentleman. It was a privilege to spend time with him today. @EAA @rookisaacman @SpaceX @elonmusk – at Wisconsin, USA

Thanks to a generous friend, my original Kenner X-Wing Luke Skywalker figure from 1978 got a ride to 80,000 feet in a U-2! I'm hoping that @HamillHimself gets a kick out this. @starwars, @nerdist, and @io9 might like it too! bit.ly/2FNe1fp

From yesterday - I was amazed at how much ice there is on Lake Winnebago, as warm as it’s been. ift.tt/2TWx3Kg

This was the code - when entered on the site, it was listed as only being valid for two lathes. I’d gotten an email about the same time that had the correct code for two mediums so it wasn’t a big deal. – at Oshkosh, WI

Hey @Marcus_Theatres, I dearly love you guys, but this has been driving me crazy for two years! I love the portrait monitors, but landscape content just doesn’t fit. #detailsmatter #ifeelbetteralready
The U.S. Navy in WW2 Kodachrome color. Amazing imagery, including some real gems for the #avgeek. youtube.com/watch?v=nvKJ8xcT… #fb
Great video from a pal @Terrafugia. I love flying cars, you may not, but the engineering is spectacular! youtube.com/watch?v=rs8oqYU0… #fb
