I spoke to the person who AI-generated the Chicago Sun-Times reading list. Says he's very embarrassed. This was part of a generic package inserted into newspapers and other publications, so likely to run elsewhere. He didn't know it'd be in Chicago Sun-Times www.404media.co/chicago-sun-...

Happy 99th birthday to the man who gave voice to the wild. 🎉 Sir David Attenborough, thank you for a lifetime dedicated to the natural world, and for sharing its story with wisdom, wonder, and grace. You've inspired generations to fall in love with nature.

Well, solid cast, #movie could have done with more plot, otherwise 3 easy-watch stars. Tickled by Matt LeBlanc as Don West. June Lockhart & Angela Cartwright ❤️

Over the course of three days I’ve watched (for the first time) Conclave, My Best Friend’s Wedding, and White House Down. The irony is I think the third may have been the most plausible.
