  2025 was a tough year for many people. Personally, I lost my father and two beloved dogs in the final quarter of 2025, capping off a truly awful year.
  My long-term significant other (we like the term “spouse-adjacent”) and I have adopted the motto “Reset, Rejuvenate and Redirect” for 2026. I don’t think we’re alone.
  As times change, so do relationships and objectives. If you’re looking to reset, rejuvenate or redirect in 2026, let me encourage you to rev

  Artificial intelligence may be all the rage these days, but you would never know it, given the flurry of anti-AI legislation proposed in Sacramento.
