Bryce Mitchell reacts to Sean Strickland being banned from the UFC White House event:
"I'm not surprised at all. We ought to be able to criticize our own nation, let alone a foreign nation.
[Israel] is the only nation you're not allowed to criticize. Something's gonna change, because evil empires don't last forever."

i saw a mouse with an X-shaped battery compartment.
first thought: this is stupid - who designed it?
5 seconds later: oh.
10 seconds later: OHHH!
the X slot fits an AA or an AAA battery - whichever you've got lying around.
the part most people miss is that the shape also makes it physically impossible to load both at once.
there is no warning label, no instructions and no way to screw it up.
the geometry does the thinking for you.
japanese has a word for this.
poka-yoke = "mistake-proofing."
the product refuses your stupidity before you can offer it.
i wish more things worked like this.
Kiddo texted me a question while I was sleeping, she had a Japanese test the next morning. Words weren’t cutting it, so I asked AI to turn my explanation into a comic. She understood it right away.
That’s it. That’s what AI is for.
