AI haters, you can skip this post. I installed Codex CLI to explain the Ghost ActivityPub implementation to me. I can ask it questions about how it parses JSON-LD and handles various fields. Learning a lot!

Good morning and welcome to June. Another month gone, and coincidentally the end of the NBA season. I woke up this morning with the worst hangover ever, and I haven't had a drink in months (never was my vice, I have others). The Knicks lost fair and square to the Indianas la...
