Kendre Miller being hurt again is a fun reminder of just how badly the Saints messed up in the 2023 draft.

This show would have been so well served by getting canceled after season 1.

New this week: Announcing an updated version of the Crime Data Assistant (at nibrsai.com). I talk about what I've learned (a lot!) and how it has improved (a lot!) since I first announced the project two months ago. Give it a read then give the assistant a whirl! jasher.substack.com/p/im-still-b...

I somehow missed the incredible art meets reality of a lawsuit being filed because of fears that a copy of a movie about Operation Fortitude might ruin the surprise of the movie thereby causing it to fail. www.cbsnews.com/news/netflix...
Netflix sued for $105 million for allegedly losing "master copy" of unreleased Nicolas Cage movie
A lawsuit alleges that a drive storing a $45 million spy film starring Nicolas Cage was "stolen right off a Netflix desk."

I count at least six cities with the fewest murders through July since before 1970 (NYC, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Detroit, Oakland & New Orleans). New York City and Philadelphia are on pace to have the fewest murders reported in a year in each city since 1944.
First look at murder through July (still waiting on the Texas cities) shows murder is still falling at unprecedented levels in the United States with no signs of levelling.
There have been 50 murders in New Orleans through July 2026, the fewest through July since 1969. New Orleans is on pace for fewer than 100 murders for the first time since 1971 (99).
We survived July, the most useless month! Now for August, the second most useless month!

I love Claude... "I owe you a correction: the bill isn't $12.50/month — it's $0.00, and my estimate was wrong by a wide margin."
