AI Needs Your Data. That's Where Social Media Comes In.
A film I loved growing up was the 1986 classic Short Circuit. In one scene, Johnny Five, the incredible robot that becomes 'alive' after being struck by lightning, devours book after book, spending seconds on each title. Soon he runs out. 'Ahh! More input, Stephanie! More!'
'There isn't anything more!' replies Stephanie, the woman who found him. 'You've read everything in the house!'

LA's First Women's Sports Bar Is Opening in Silver Lake
A new bar showing all of the best women's sports games is opening in Silver Lake. Untamed Spirits debuts along Hyperion Avenue in the former second-story Trophy Wife space on June 7, coinciding with Pride month. Although bars across the country, like Portland's Sports Bra and Long Beach's Watch Me, focus on showcasing women's sports, this is the first of its kind in Los Angeles. The bar is owned by wives Stephanie and Janie Ellingwood, with a menu from chef Jude Shin. The bar will serve Asian-influenced bites like kimchi bokkeumbap alongside cocktails inspired by the Ellingwoods' Vietnamese American heritage and Shin's Korean American heritage. To celebrate the bar's debut, Untamed Spirits is hosting an opening party starting at 10 a.m. on Saturday, June 7, and running until midnight. A new chicken Caesar wrap comes to town Glendale's Mini Kabob has announced a summer special — a chicken thigh Caesar wrap available starting June 18.

Relatable Photos For Anyone Just Surviving Over 30
This post goes out to everyone out there who's just trying to get through it. Ya know? You're an adult, you have a job, and you're having one of those days. Oh, and you're a millennial. Sometimes you just need some memes. They're double-dipping on us. *chews quietly* *coughs up microplastics* "This KOLBJÖRN has been in my family for generations." Now just put a headphone jack on it. For me, it was Short Circuit. He's not wrong. What am I supposed to do? Spend time with my family?? Some deep 2-a.m. conversations were had around that oddly shaped island. *quietly sobs* You're a certain age if this ad works on you. Ugh, Hailey. There are better options, sorry! I wish I could right now! How the turn tables... Well yeah, otherwise they have to rewind and play the whole voicemail over again! And they all think we're 25. "Ow. Ow. Ow." "Maybe if I have a glass of water in between." Yeah, we know who to blame. Generational Uno reverse card. Shoutout to all the car insurance dads out there. Why is this so hard?? HELP. I can't be expected to remember something after 20 minutes. And finally, a small list of things our generation has "killed."

Tiny Love Stories: ‘He Left Me for a Much Younger Woman'
Out of Despair After 21 years of marriage, he left me for a much younger woman whom he had been secretly seeing. They moved in together. I remained in our apartment, mostly in despair. We both hired lawyers. A year and a half later, he returned. Some friends disapproved of our reconciliation. 'Don't forgive him,' they counseled. But we missed each other and our family. We each learned things about ourselves during the separation (he realized his role in our problems; I learned to let go of the small stuff). An enlightening and happy reunion, but what a miserable way to learn! — Nan Bauer-Maglin Terrible Pets My mice, Cucumber and Toothpaste, were terrible pets. The family who relinquished them promised loving, social companions. They were, in fact, standoffish and nippy — but I adored them. When I lowered my face to their level, one might come over and press his little soft nose to mine before scampering off. At the end of their lives, a vet identified them as an inbred strain of lab mice, supposedly notorious for violence. Terrible pets, who were also my couch mates, comedic relief, muses for countless doodles and stories and unexpected teachers of unconditional love. — Elana Berk An Easy Choice Stephanie told me she had cancer two hours into our first date. I said, 'I won't treat you any differently because of that.' She was brilliant, kind, amazing in many ways. We became inseparable, falling in love on a road trip from Tyler, Texas, to New Orleans. Shortly afterward, she said, 'I want to spend the rest of my life with you.' I said yes. My two and a half years with her were the best of my life. Losing her was the hardest thing I've ever experienced. Yet, I'd make the same choice, every time. I love you, Stephanie. — Gary Zeiger The Last Cookie In the early days of our marriage, money was scarce but Oreos were on sale. We savored them, a few at a time, until only one remained. I held off eating it, wanting you to enjoy the last of our splurge. The cookie sat on our counter — untouched — for a week until you said, 'I was saving it for you.' We snapped the cookie in two, a communion-like ritual in our sunshine-yellow kitchen. Twelve years later, money is no longer tight but the memory of that split Oreo still tastes sweet. — Bethany Hughes See more Tiny Love Stories at Submit yours at Want more from Modern Love?
