The US Supreme Court officially has no time for this X/Meta foolishness.

The night got… sidetracked.
Such is life. I’ll pay for it with a somewhat more packed schedule over the next few days, I’m sure. Still… sometimes it’s just going to happen.
Tweet of the Day, Damned Straight edition.
Giraffes forever.
Tweet of the Day, This Really Does Feel Freaky edition.
It did a better job than I expected. Heck, I didn’t expect it to do the job at all. AI is a fascinating field.
Everything SHOULD be measured in giraffes, sure.
Sorry. It’s just so rare that social media brings up giraffes, for some reason. And I’ve always wanted an excuse to use that picture.
Headline of the Day, It’s True, We Are edition.
It’s so nice that somebody’s done the research on this: Study: Giraffes are socially complex, misunderstood. It’s a burden, being this sensitive. Alone. Alone, in the herd…
Via Instapundit. Also: …HEY!
Tweet of the Day, Happy World Giraffe Day! edition.
Why not celebrate it by buying my books?
So, April the giraffe decided to have her calf.
Male, looks healthy. I’m still trying to decide whether or not the Animal Adventure Park simply got wrong how long the pregnancy was likely to go, or whether this was all a subtle plot to get some publicity. If it was the latter… well, it worked, didn’t it? Hard to argue with success, you know.
Tweet of the Day, God Help Me: I’m Putting Up A TMZ Giraffe Tweet edition.
This was sent to me (I am omitting that person’s name because I am not cruel), and I am slightly horrified to say that I found it enjoyable. There’s not much that can be fairly said to be improved by getting the TMZ treatment, but this story… yeah. It’s a perfect example of our new, shiny media world. It really and truly is.
April hasn't dropped yet but here's a peek at what you can expect. 😂 😱 pic.twitter.com/6ICrW3IOFO

Geez, how long does a freaking giraffe gestate for, anyway?
That one whose livestream I linked to a while back still hasn’t given birth yet. …I probably should know how long a giraffe’s gestation period is, though. In my defense, I’ve picked up all my giraffe lore via osmosis, but I should maybe be more formalized about it going forward.
