#Babylon5 S01E17 Legacies ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Huh. Two episodes in a row about telepaths. Young pickpocket hits puberty, and her powers are extremely strong. Many want her to join their ranks, and ultimately, she chooses to join the Minbari, an alien superpower that almost wiped out humans in a long war.

#Babylon5 S01E16 Eyes ⭐️⭐️⭐️
First time posting for this show. Maybe I should do it more… I find it interesting how Babylon 5 has a very negative view of telepathy. Really think #StarTrek did a better job dealing with this via Betazoids.

I ran this poll 2 years ago and 90% of the correspondents on mastodon told me there were no required AI usage at their workplace.

I would like to ask the same question again in 2026:

“Does your workplace have any AI related requirements, either as major project goal, in performance review, or with usage analytics tracking, against your own will?”

Boost welcomed.

Random figures I saw in some shops. Didn’t buy anything. I think the 1974 #Godzilla is cute. Wonder what happened that year…

 The image features a display of Super Mario action figures, including Mario and Luigi in dynamic poses, alongside a Yoshi figure. There are several accessories like coins, a question block, and a green pipe. Price tags for the figures are visible.
A display case featuring several Godzilla figures, including various versions from 1974, 1992, and 1993, as well as a Mechagodzilla figure from 1974. Accompanying each figure are corresponding movie posters
A large statue of a classic robot character stands prominently in a store. The robot features red, blue, and yellow colors with a distinctive design, including horns and a striking pose. It is displayed on a pedestal surrounded by a red barrier, with signs

Finally finished my tax preparation and submitted estimated withdrawals to Feds and States (year of moving). My tax person will file an extension because apparently sending everything the day it’s due is late? Sheesh! 😂

Burned about 4-5 days making posts with audio look cool in my Mastodon app (soon to be on TestFlight). These simple distractions are probably not what I should be focusing on. It's like adding a new dining car to a train when the brakes still don't work. Anyhow, here is a blog about making audio look cool:
