This is a Beltane, worn by ancient Druids during the Burning Times to show allegiance to the Goddess. At the beginning of the Spring harvest, Zelators cured their belts with flying ointment so the High Priestess could consecrate her Sacred Marriage to the Green Man on the Astral Plane. Blessed Be!

So iOS now groups your emails into categories? Without prior consent or notice, and even after turning off Apple Intelligence? Not sure what mechanism they use for deciding what goes where, but that could be a wee bit problematic for privileged communications. In theory.

That’s how you do social media. First, you do it yourself rather than hand it over to a staffer. Second, you interact with other people rather than using your account as a billboard for pre-written posts. Third, you offer information and solutions instead of simply describing what’s happening.

One thing that’s been driving me crazy: media coverage that says Trump fired X, or ended policy Y, by executive order. No. He’s TRYING to do X and Y, despite the fact that it requires further action to implement, and may be illegal, and various actors may push back, and he may not prevail.

Imagine a Democratic President who tried to do the same kind of batshit left-wing Executive Orders as Trump's batshit right-wing Executive Orders.
