Detailed outlines. With neat little bullet points. Best I can manage is: 1) starting 2) themes 3) important scenes 4) ???? 5) end place Then it is off to the races. #writingq #WritingCommunity

A "Historically Accurate Odyssey" only works if it is just a poet reciting the entire poem. Perhaps with a few actors in the background and Muses as the chorus. And it all needs to be done in a single, unbroken take and viewed form a still camera as if watching from the amphitheater seats.
Elon Musk released the first episode of his "historically accurate Odyssey, and I need a historian to make a video tearing it to bits

This was somehow even worse than I expected. And the irony is, the same people in this cult have been worrying about the antichrist for decades and fell right in step with a dude who checks every single box. www.tiktok.com/t/ZTfCLEUDp/
They just closed when they saw him heading their way.
Trump: "In Washington, all the restaurants were closing. People were being held up. They'd walk into a restaurant. Like Jesse James. 'Stand up! Give us all your money.' They're eating dinner at a fancy restaurant. All the restaurants were closing."

Is anyone going to grow a pair and actually stop him?
This design appears to completely eliminate the much-beloved loop road and public park at Hains Point, and cut down the cherry trees which line the road. The park is a public space used by tens of thousands of Washingtonians and heavily visited by tourists. /photos not my own.

If you are using AI, you are not an author. Period. End of conversation.
We understand the strength of feeling this AI Charter has provoked & that more explanation is needed. We will publish a blog tomorrow detailing why, in a vacuum of regulation, this charter demands more transparency & accountability from organisations on how they are using AI now and in the future.
Yeah, but what are they actually going to DO about it? Who is going to jail? Who is paying for the damage? This is the problem with Trump and his ilk. The trees can't be replaced. No matter how mad anyone is about it, if there are no consequences, he still wins. www.alternet.org/trump-golf-c...
The wood pile has been taken down. This is my parents house, so most of that wood was older then I am. Kinda surprised it didn't just disintegrate. Most was rotting, so it went over the fence to a wood area to return to nature.
It has been a week. Orion got bit by a snake, copperhead we think but we never found it. He ended up in the ER vet on monday night and had to get anti-venom. Tuesday morning he was feeling well enough they asked me to pick up early. He's not eating much because his mouth hurts.

They were going to keep him for 24 hours. He was feeling so well this morning, he was distressed by actually being in the kennel and was howling and thrashing, and chewing his cath. They had to give him sedation so he didn't hurt himself and is now on home observation.
He's staying the night and getting anti-venom.

In a shocking twist, the thing we all told you we didn't want, we still do not want.
This tidbit was in the article. 🎈💥 ? "Goldman Sachs warned Friday that AI hyperscalers, including Meta, need to generate roughly $300 billion a year in AI services revenue just to break even on their capital spending—and $1 trillion annually to earn meaningful profits—spooking investors."

Republicans are losing and they know it.
Because of the Texas state government's error, Texas "counties are now dealing with nearly a year of backlogged voter registration tasks to process. They could include new registrations or simply updates to voters’ existing records, like a change in address..." www.votebeat.org/texas/2026/0...
