Amazon launched Health AI on its website and app, giving Prime members free 24/7 access to virtual care. It reads your medical records, books appointments, and connects you to providers. I signed up to see how well it explains my results — some of it I have no idea what it means.

I should start making my own butter. Heavy cream, yogurt, a stand mixer — that’s really all it takes. Let it ferment overnight, whip it up, rinse it, done. The possibilities go beyond plain: garlic herb, honey, whatever I’m in the mood for. Can you imagine me doing this? It should be fun, right?

Striped arched doorless shower
"Have nothing in your house that you do not know to be useful or believe to be beautiful." — William Morris

That arched doorless shower is doing a lot — in the best way. Blue-and-white stripe tile wrapping wall to ceiling, framed by a perfect arch. No door, no hardware, nothing interrupting the pattern. What gets me is how committed it is — the stripe doesn't stop at the shower entrance, it just keeps going. That kind of design confidence is rare. A bathroom with an actual point of view. If I ever have the bathroom space for it, this is the vision.

Word of the Day: Spurious

I learned a new word today.


Word of the Day
Spurious
/ˈspjʊəriəs/ • adjective
Visual representation of the concept of Spurious

01. Not genuine, authentic, or true.
02. Based on false reasoning.
Example: "The data showed a spurious correlation between ice cream sales and shark attacks, as both were actually driven by the summer heat."

Quick Tip:
Think of it as the "imposter" of the dictionary. If it’s spurious, it’s "spurious-ly" (seriously) fake.

The U.S. government just officially registered alien.gov and aliens.gov. While the pages are currently blank, the move follows recent pledges regarding UAP and UFO disclosure. Whether it’s a portal for declassified files or a new transparency initiative, the timing is wild. Stay tuned! 👽🛸 Link

01. Social instability resulting from a breakdown of standards and values.
02. Personal unrest, alienation, and uncertainty that comes from a lack of purpose or ideals.

Can a Robot Love You Back?

I've spent a few posts lately talking about how robots make me uneasy. Automation eating jobs. AI making decisions nobody asked it to make. The creeping sense that we're building things faster than we're thinking about them. I stand by all of that. And then, a couple of years ago, I read The Wild Robot — before any of those posts existed. Funny how that works. If you haven't read it, here's the short version: Roz is a robot who washes ashore on a wild island, raises a gosling that isn't hers, and becomes something that looks a whole lot like a mother. Peter Brown's book sneaks up on you. He said he set out to write about a robot finding …

My Hands Are My Voice: The Problem with AI Search in Google Maps

Google is doing a huge overhaul to Maps. It's not just a map anymore; it's becoming a personal assistant that uses AI to "see" and "think." Check out the full story here: Digital Trends Article What the new AI can do: "Ask Maps": You can ask complex questions like "Find a quiet cafe with good parking," and Gemini AI summarizes the best spots for you. Immersive Navigation: It uses 3D views to show landmarks, overpasses, and even traffic details before you go. Driving Copilot: Google says these features are designed to help you "stay focused on the road" by letting you talk to the AI while you drive. It looks amazing, but as a Deaf person, …

Started this yesterday. Finished it this morning. 1,125 pieces and one very good boy sitting on my desk.

LEGO Ideas #069 from the Gremlins universe. Those ears. Those eyes. Honestly one of the most satisfying builds I've done in a while.

"Three rules. Keep him away from bright light. Don't get him wet. And no matter what you do — never feed him after midnight."

I followed all three. He turned out perfect. No room in a tiny house for regrets — just Gizmo on the shelf. 🧱

This Biscuit and Sausage Casserole looks so good! Growing up, my family always made biscuits and gravy, and I’ve really been missing that. I’m grabbing the ingredients to try this recipe on one of those Sundays. Yummy! 😋

I’ve been a loyal John Grisham fan for years, keeping a Christmas tradition my dad started for my late mamaw. I own every book, and The French Illusion will be under the tree this year.

"Many of the elements that make legal thrillers compelling—high stakes, hidden motives, intricate plots, and shady characters—also propel the best espionage fiction."
John Grisham, Doubleday (2026)

I will miss his courtroom chaos. Although it isn't classic legal grit, I’ll still read it because he is John Grisham.
