If an author disclaims their use of AI in writing their article manuscript (and it shows in the prose) then why am I being asked to review it? If they can’t be bothered to write for themselves why should I be bothered to read?

nobody EXCEPT nbc is calling the michigan primary for el-sayed. my people, i watched steve kornacki run through every path and scenario as fellow geek adam called out updated vote counts. steve had his calculator and furiously scribbled calculations. don't question kornacki's math, msm.

i got an air quality alert this morning for seattle warning that it was going to deteriorate over the next few days due to wildfire smoke. it was in the upper 50s then (moderate). at 8:42 pm it's 118 (unhealthy for sensitive groups). forecast to get as high as the 150s tomorrow (unhealthy).

map of washington state, color coded by air quality. all along the pacific coast it is yellow (poor). from the northern to southern border, seattle to spokane the colors are in the red (unhealthy) to light purple (very unhealthy) to a few spots of dark purple (dangerous).

steve kornacki furiously putting numbers into a handheld calculator and scribbling on a piece of paper while barely talking is everything!

Another day where the president & other national Republicans get to sh*t on cities/urban voters & we have <exactly none> of the National Conversations™️ about Civility, Tone, Respect for/Reaching out to Real Folkz, or the GOP’s problem of not offering enough Moderate Solutions on Kitchen Table Issues

Trump: "Look at the blue cities. What do they have in common? They're all dirty. They're filthy dirty. Their streets are dirty. Their streets smell. Their storefronts are broken. Their trees are all gross. Everything about the place is dirty. It's really all of them."

i'd reply: "the people. i'm with the people, sir. i'm here to report your words to the people." otoh, i really don't want donald thinking i'm his new best friend, so... (also, when's he going to decide that msnow is the propaganda arm of ms-13?)
