I taught my #AI a little #ContextAwareness -- w/ joke, #ShortCircuit style I named my AI "Goldfish" (Dag Zahav דג זהב), for 30-day memory, but called it Blue Fish (Dag Kachol דג כחול) cuz memory really = #Dory 😂 #Gemini #FindingNemo #GoogleAI #LLM #Memory #AIFail #AIHumor #Number5IsAlive

Why #France matters: #EU itself at stake. #LePen & her #NationalRally represent #tRumpism in #Europe: For those who forget: #SteveBannon cheered at *their* rally saying: "Let them call you #racist ... Wear it as a badge of honor." www.politico.com/story/2018/0... www.politico.eu/article/fran...

#JuniorSays keep #Curiosity alive #FightOrFlight isn't the only choice. Fight/flight itself is a choice; another choice exists altogether. You can't even be in a fight/flight state, if you remain curious. Even if you're lying down next to ceiling with no way to safely find solid ground on your own.

When Sinatra recorded this 1945 song written by Abel Meeropol, who also wrote Billie Holiday's "Strange Fruit," the right-wing press lambasted it, accused Sinatra of peddling socialism, and the FBI investigated Sinatra. "The House I Live In" is about diversity and tolerance.

You can't see it in the clip, but if you turn the sound up and listen carefully you can actually hear the thunk of Trump's ball bouncing off the caskets of our fallen servicemen.

My AI describes irony as a discrepancy between expectation and reality, often with a sense of "perverse appropriateness" -- President Jackson's Legacy was no less than the Trail of Tears. After we chop down his tree, we should also take Jackson off the $20 bill. www.denverpost.com/2014/03/07/w...

I called my senators today and told them I want Cory Booker to be the senate minority leader. We can’t hold hearings. We don’t have subpoena power. We can’t pass budgets. But we CAN filibuster, and we CAN change party leadership.

The last day on which a majority of the Supreme Court’s justices had been appointed by Democratic presidents was May 14, 1969. One of the things we do in the legal academy is support our claims with facts.

Without even making the news page, here in U.S., Lithuania openly is repairing for war with Russia, "in 4-5 years." Because trump will end the conflict within 24 hours of him taking office* (*if that 24-hour day is as long as Nevuary the 43rd) euromaidanpress.com/2025/03/20/n...

#ProudBlue #MomSky Here is another story of the cruelty & illegal actions of the Trump administration. I could not post the full video because it’s longer than 3 mins, so here is the link if you have Tiktok. We MUST keep pushing back on these EVIL actions be ICE. www.tiktok.com/t/ZP82bDQrt/

I could easily live with this. And so many more people in the Middle East / elsewhere would, too. But you won't get Russia to stop refighting the 1856 Crimean War. And you won't see Trump leave office until after the Hoovervilles have overflowed. And neither Hamas nor Bibi are going away soon.
