Morning rainbow in #Boulder

There are hundreds of goats mowing grasses in my neighborhood park next to Fairview High School in #Boulder right now. Today I learned there is a Côte-du-Rhône-style wine called Fairview’s Goats Do Roam.

I’ve noticed that anytime someone asks AI what their pet would like as a human, the pet always gets rendered as a white person. Has anyone experienced anything different?

Yesterday (77°F) and today (22°F) in #Boulder.

Serious question: Does #chatgpt render pets as white people only?

I'm here for the concert and I see the preshow is still going

Viewer feedback tonight came in the form of a letter from a federal employee in Colorado...

My heart aches for SoCal. We experienced devastating fires in the Boulder area 3 yrs ago. Some survivors in our area put together this document for what to do in the aftermath. Please share with anyone who might find it helpful. tinyurl.com/2s3fnfep

I bought my dumpster fire cookie cutter in 2020 and hoped to finally retire it this year, but then November happened so I guess I’ll be using this for at least the next four years. Buh-bye, 2024! Happy New Year 2025! 🎆 🥂🎉

Oh wow, this is big news! I’m so grateful to you for all the stellar reporting and journalism you’ve provided to the Boulder area. We have all benefitted from it. Thank you, @mitchellbyars.bsky.social . 🙏 Best of luck for what’s next. If you ever want to brainstorm with an ex-journo, I’m all ears.

Very happy to see local #Boulder breaking news treasure @mitchellbyars.bsky.social here on this app. Hope he posts more here… he’s one of the folks I’ve missed the most by leaving The Bad Place. I’d assumed the corporate overlords forbade him from posting elsewhere, but glad to see I was wrong.

One cat, two heads.

I have faced fascism before, in this very country. I was one of 120,000 Japanese Americans summarily rounded up and expelled from our homes at gunpoint, all for the crime of looking like the people who bombed Pearl Harbor.

I spent my childhood behind barbed wire. My parents lost everything. 1/

Just here to cleanse your feed with someone living her very best life, no matter what else is going on in the world.

Yes.

Something I discovered while in vacation in Denmark last week: I’M IN THE LEGO MUSEUM! To be more precise, an article I co-wrote in 1999 is on permanent display in LEGO House. ✨🟥🟨🟦🇩🇰✨

Hola, Ricky! Good to see you here!

The Asian Market on 28th is decent but tiny.

#Boulder giving off Windows XP vibes this evening.

Successfully made it through the minefield.

Halp! Trapped at the top of the stairs.

Recently asked how I at 54 see other adults. We're all individuals of course but as population segments:

75+: Old
60 - 75: Kinda old? But not THAT old
45 - 60: My people, looking pretty good actually
35 - 45: All look the same age, and generally hot
35 - 25: Real young
Under 25: ACTUAL HUMAN BABIES

The Sandwich Generation needs a more honest rebranding as the Shit Sandwich Generation ‘cause that’s what this is. 💩🥪

Thanks, Fitz. Deeply grateful.
