You cannot over estimate the importance of ‘bubbles’ in the life of Jax - so believe me when I say that my research of ‘stoppers to contain said bubbles to prevent their disappearance has over the years been extensive.
IMHO this is the best … it’s from Le Creuset.
Jax’s opinion remains unchanged ….
No such work of the devil is needed. The bottle is open. The bubbles have been liberated. They can no longer be contained.

This takes High Tops to a whole new level.
Pun intended.
(Unless at a bar - ‘high tops’ are not places that Jax and I frequent)
🔗 The Em Dash Responds to the AI Allegations
It’s McSweeney, so …
I am one of those ‘em dash’ - AI pundits.
‘BA’ - I rarely saw an em dash in the words that I read - and I read a lot.
‘AA’ era - em dashes are everywhere
Either
-
a lot of people recently attended writing courses OR
-
they are using AI
Is there a third option?
look to your left, then to your right. A hundred percent of those people are slathering me across sentences like adding more cheese to a risotto that’s already drowning in parmesan—without tasting, without thinking, without remorse.

Transformative innovation is priced in to the Big Tech stocks including their legacy businesses, and there’s only so much remaining crime that they can use to fill in the gaps between investor expectations and what they can realistically deliver. Yes, buying a gilded ballroom for the President of the USA will help them get away with more crime for longer, but in the absence of newly created value they can’t keep extracting more and more. The disruption from the coming AI crash could result in a decline in some other revenue streams previously considered safe.

Just poked my head into the kitchen - I presume a local rugby team is dropping by later to help consume the dinner being prepared.
