      Good morning! Back to our routines. Sort of. 😆 Splurged on some raspberry cold foam today bc clean-ish eating starts tomorrow…but I also needed some emotional support sugar while I mull over the chat I need to have with the kids’ school regarding bullies… 🫠
      Happy Sunday!

      Seeing more "the AI bubble isn't one big bubble but a series of bubbles" headlines this weekend and I just want to know what it's like to have been interpreting the former this whole time. 
      
      The multiple constraints have been plaguing my brain for years. Tech usually finds a way but *this many?*
