I Love This Mug
This is my office mug. It’s got a bunch of banned books on it, which is great, but it also has THIS on the bottom and I can’t believe I didn’t notice it sooner:
Here’s the rest of the mug, if you’re curious:

Autocorrect: Still Better Than the Alternative, Usually, I Guess
My daughter asked me when the first day of spring is, so I did a search for it:
P.S. stop using Google and switch to DuckDuckGo. With all the AI slop and deceptive ads and algorithmic tweaking Google’s added, their results are actually worse now. There is literally no reason not to switch.
