Coffee shop, 1/3 of a Matcha latte with soy sits in a glass beside a laptop with the following text on it:

"Noble sponsor, forgive me. I understand some Earth terms. I don't believe Romacca is responsible for any misdeeds.”
"I allow the transgress." K' Palis's features softened, "You've proven your loyalty to Avram, which I know reverberated through your family." Emella's brow furrowed with a memory. "But star laws are clear. Her culpability is not ours to decide." To Romacca, "It is time." They strode toward her.
Brilliance jumped in the way.
"No." Many of her red tangles slipped from their green binding, turning half of her head wild.
"Brillz, what're you doing?"
With a curious frown, K'Palis echoed her, "No?”
"Now you don't understand the word "no"?" Brilliance sneered at the mechanical person staring her down. “I'm claiming amnesty for Romacca in the name of the Earth."
"And Rotha." said Arrifal. He turned to Jaf. "I can do that, right?"

Real problem: Transparent containers for hot drinks.

Can I take an imaginary sip once the glass is empty?
Thus extending my right to loiter a bit longer?

Yes, but then my lie is also transparent 😅

We live in a magical semi-queer time!

I’ll be watching a show with two dude-bros and not know if they are going to kiss. In the past, I knew they wouldn’t. In future shows, I’ll know they will.

Right now? Mystery!

His racist logic, Cuban ancestry = success in Cuba? I’m sure they’ll welcome him since we buttered them up with no oil, blackouts, and a humanitarian crisis 😳

I’ve got a different plan. I’ll just forget he ever existed and focus on getting the family to agree where to go for dinner.

Horsefly Prosecutor: So you found this sweater made of us? The one you’re wearing right now? Made of colleagues of mine? And it has nothing to do with your species’ habit of knitting, murder, sweaters?

Bone Collector: Um, yes?

Dragonfly in judge wig: Careful, your question seems racially charged.

Or have no military connection at all, just a hallucination or hiccup or bad data.

It’s a door that should never have been opened 😳

It wasn’t fun crafting it either 😳

Connecting the dots:
Pete Hegseth’s demand for zero governance of military AI, plus the administration’s casual use of troops against citizens and residents will lead to a similar situation.

Thousands of targets, 10% inaccuracy, 20 seconds of human oversight per decision (is target male?).

But even if any of these had been human decisions, targeting military in their homes because it’s easier? This is war crime automation.

Alone time! So precious.

My wife will check on me from time to time, but generally says go for a walk or go play guitar or go write at a coffee shop (with earplugs in 😅). 🍀✨

There was fawning and snuggling and praise.

Then she was done, held me away from her, and demanded of anyone near her, “Enough. Take the child.”

And given that I’m still able to write this story, I assume we landed safely.

We boarded the plane amidst the theatrical throng, and throughout the brief flight, I was passed around like a novelty, played with, coo’d over, and entertained.

Then, “I must have that beautiful child!” I was brought to the outreaching arms of Katharine Hepburn.

She walked over to the terminal, surrounded by her entourage and costars, all still in make up and costumes, for the most part, singing and dancing in troupe fashion. The airline rep approached her and explained our situation.

Kate looked us over and said “Yes, of course, of course!”
