My theory is that Anthropic is way, way, way more like OpenAI than its legion of fans would like to admit. They're already in the "OH MY GOD THIS IS SO POWEFUL WE CAN'T SHARE IT WITH YOU" (and subsequent write-ups) phase of marketing tactics and I reckon it's going to get worse for them
1. My new VP at work said good things about my ability and attitude.
2. Bought a bunch of half-price, seasoned, small portions of meat that will be great for my lunches (I work from home).
3. My son enjoyed his first session of a new basketball academy, despite being one of the younger kids there.
It's a small one, but cruise ship season in Halifax has begun.

Easter, my mom's birthday, and maple season at the farm often converge.

Here we go! Artemis II launches in just a few minutes.
It was someone else's AI generation, not mine, so I'm glad too.
Funnily, Dan said the same thing.

My workplace collected quotes/fun facts from everyone about how stressful things have been lately, and then had a quiz to guess who said what. And they made AI pictures, of course, for the answers.
They picked my submission for "What film title represents the last few weeks for you?"
Did you know that, by more than one group's assessment, there are more autocracies than democracies in the world today? That's wild and scary. Is this a reaction to the state of popular disenfranchisement? www.democracywithoutborders.org/36317/autocr...
Me at a sidewalk café in San Francisco
SFO coffee life (good, but expensive 😆)
Me on a train, with an airport and hills behind me.
Hello, San Francisco!
Me in an airport lounge
I appreciate the positivity! Not there, though. In transit in Toronto.
Me in the back of a taxi
Planes, trains, and automobiles today. Where will I pop up?
For sure!

Bar crowd
It's been a few years since I got out for St Patrick's Day, but a little downtown bar-hop with my friends Barry and Tanya made for a fun night.
Or maybe those are the bouncers. Hardcore, either way.
There are people lined up outside Durty Nelly's in this weather. 🍀🍺 www.novascotiawebcams.com/webcams/argy...
Don't want to use up all that blinker fluid.
“But, as you see, it's a beautiful day, the Strait of Hormuz is open and people are having a wonderful time.”
It's true, they burn their beans. I usually have a cappuccino, and tried one today, and it was utter, weak dogshit.
Why do I bother giving Starbucks more chances? Their coffee is so shit. No more.
Entrance to the ballroom at the Westin, with silky curtains and a video screen saying it's for Purple Day

My friend Tanya needed a last-minute guest at the Epilepsy Association of the Maritimes' Purple Night fundraising gala last evening (she donated jewelry that was included in an auction). It was a lot of fun for a cause that's touched both our lives. #PurpleDayGala2026 #EAM
A lot of yacht clubs and other high-end places do get tax relief, but the Waegwoltic doesn't appear to be on the recent lists: cdn.halifax.ca/sites/defaul...
WE'RE NUMBER 1

His smug ass deserves this.
Keep booing to the polls #nspoli
Rebecca Cohn auditorium as people take their seats
Symphony Nova Scotia on stage
Gen and me in our seats
Just back from Symphony Nova Scotia performing "Star Wars vs Star Trek" with my friend Gen. Really exciting and moving and fun! Highlights: guest emcee Jonathan Del Arco (Hugh the Borg from ST:TNG), and when he conducted the orchestra in the encore performance, the Mos Eisley cantina bar music.
I'll be there! No earrings, though. 😆
What, me worry?
Head shot photo of me as a young teenager
Found at my parents' house. I'm guessing I was 13 or 14?
