Nothing but Blue Skies do I see Iowan, Bears fan, cat lover. Political sometimes, but trying to be good to people.

This is quite the odd take, in my most humble and sincere opinion. Now, if they’re literally shotgunning a white Monster while I’m asking a question or loudly sucking the last bit of a beverage from a straw, yeah, OK, that may count against you. But realistically, I’m offering them water or coffee.

I’m sorry, but if you bring an iced coffee - or any damn beverage at all - to a job interview, you’re disqualified. It’s not hard, people.

Just saw another crappy YouTube ad for a betting site (?) that had an infographic that was instantly recognizable as AI-generated. The same homogenized look that’s everywhere. Obnoxiously busy and overly dense, with those infernal clipart icons next to their bullet points.

Listening to the 1997 performance of “Silver Springs” by Fleetwood Mac. This may be a little over-the-top, but I think it’s evocative at the level of Shakespeare. Or of Beethoven’s Ninth, or equivalent.
