This is bad journalism, @thenewstribune. This quote is not from Kroger, as it appears, but from the @Enquirer. CC @TheStreet @worstideasDBK

Excellent work by @CascadiaDaily to keep people updated on the Skagit flooding. share.google/IuhJBBd3Z7tfL1a…

What a downgrade. We are infinitely richer, we’ve cleaned the air, lengthened our lives through the miracles of modern medicine and yet we live in worse places.
Agreed with all of this. If anything, AI video just makes me want to go outside all the more.
I don't understand the point. I suppose this decreases the cost/speed/artistry of video production in a major way, makes that marketplace even more saturated. But if the idea is a social reels feed, it's not clear to me why that matters. Will people really have much appetite for sort of pointless videos of things that didn't happen? Do people seriously want to sit on their couch and scroll these for an hour? Kinda gimicky.
As more short-form video content proliferates, I catch myself craving––and thus pursuing––the total opposite: Movies from the '90s and earlier (before slop studios & pervasive shit acting––even A24 is becoming an unreliable indicator of quality); prestige TV shows (The Sopranos); in-person events; turning phone off and keeping it out of sight. I'm not unique in wanting this. People don't love the physical/emotional/psychological feeling they get from living entirely inside a screen, especially one feeding them short, cheap, quick content that asks nothing of them. We want to be useful, not vacant overweight meatsuits.

My 4th album “Pale, Through the Window” is out today
My job was to tell the story of how emptiness, confusion and near nihilism, was transformed into certainty, clarity, hope and awe. Love by way of God first, reflected and confirmed further by the love of an incredible partner.
Some @AP versions I saw had "are" after "guards," which helps.
That minor issue aside, I greatly appreciate what @goskagit does to keep people informed.
I was honored once again to have a role in the successful launch of the Regional Overview of Food Security and Nutrition for Europe and Central Asia. Congratulations to the many people and organizations collaborating on this project.

Just felt a minor #earthquake in Skagit County. Must have been this in the San Juans. earthquaketrack.com/quakes/2…
I don't think this is true, @AP, though I'd love it if mortgage rates fell that far.

Should be "ungodly", as other versions of Treasure Island confirm. #bantypos #copyediting
