How do you relax? So there I was, late Saturday night, staring at the streaming void trying to figure out what to watch. I landed on a documentary about the history of reggaetón on Peacock. Why not? It sounded like the perfect background noise for folding laundry. Except […]
By the time I sat down Friday night, it was 7:30 PM and I had lived what felt like three weeks crammed into five days. Sleep was a rumor. Anxiety was a clingy roommate. Coffee was my emotional support animal. It was one of those weeks. The kind […]
Hospitals are strange universes. Time is warped, fluorescent lights are merciless, and even the air smells faintly of bleach and bureaucracy. I had been sitting there for what felt like eternity. Waiting, and waiting, and waiting some more. Of course, I had once again forgotten to bring my […]
There are certain days in life when you think, “Yes, today is the day I make a healthy choice.” You know. Drink more water, eat fewer chips, cut down on energy drinks that could probably power a lawn mower. But fate has a sense of humor. I decided […]
The pumpkin spice fog hasn’t even fully settled over the land, and already September is coming in hot with its mile-long to-do list. Forget New Year’s resolutions. This is when the real reset button gets smacked, whether you like it or not. The emails are breeding. The meetings […]

So apparently, humans (and perhaps a few other entities) send over 2.5 billion messages to ChatGPT every single day. That’s billions with a B. More than the number of daily texts between gossipping teenagers in 2005. More than the prayers whispered to the universe when you can’t find […]
Here we are: the last lazy Saturday of August. That odd, in-between time when summer is slipping away but fall hasn’t quite strutted onto the stage with its pumpkin spice parade. I’m half-tempted to declare today a national holiday: The Cult of Staying In Pajamas While the World […]
Only in Florida could the following headline exist: “Officials release robotic marsh bunnies to lure giant invasive Burmese pythons out of the Everglades.”Yes, you read that correctly. Not Disney animatronics. Not Elon Musk’s latest AI brainchild. Nope. Robot bunnies. These furry decoys hop, wiggle, and (get this) smell […]
