I’m a chemistry professor & a hearing person learning ASL (so I can support D/hh students). I like cats and playing Destiny 2 an unreasonable amount. I only RT images with alt text. If I like your un-alt-texted art I may add a description in a reply (she)

if you're writing a sentence that sounds like eugenics but you go "oh that's fine to say because it's not a real person" (whatever that means) you may want to consider what made you okay with saying that

i think it’s actually completely okay to say an algorithm is not a real person

as a friend said elsewhere, this also just shows they could fire 2000 cops & pay for it that way 👀

Saw an anti-prop 50 ad yesterday that said it would cost $300 million, “enough to hire 4800 teachers or 2000 cops”

first, I do not want to hire 2000 more cops

second, you’ve just reinforced how much less teachers are paid compared to cops 🙃

I get a lot of joy out of being a compassionate professor. Helping students improve their writing and knowledge is a blessing. My classrooms are happy, fun, at times serious, intense, respectful places of learning. The right will never understand, because for us, teaching is a form of love, not hate

Everything is too expensive and you can be kidnapped off the streets or shot by a bigot at any moment; you can't go to the doctor or get a vaccine or read certain books or learn history or speak a language other than English but hey at least a computer will drink a lake to talk to your kid for you

Panel 1: Shen is wearing a yellow artist beret and standing next to two artists, also clad in yellow and wearing yellow artist berets. One is darker skinned and has squarish curly dark brown hair, and one is lighter skinned and has straight orange hair in a bowl cut. Shen says "I'm glad we all agreed to be bad at art forever."
Panel 2: Shen points at an artist in the distance who is drawing on a canvas near a Greek statue. His eyes bulge as he yells "HEY THAT GUY'S LEARNING ANATOMY!! BEAT HIS ASS!!!" The other two artists start running towards him.
Panel 3: Shen cuts his hands around his mouth and closes his eyes tight, yelling "KICK HIM IN THE LATISSIMUS DORSI!!!"
Panel 4: The other two artists turn around and look at Shen menacingly, like two cavemen looking at an alien.
Panel 5: On the sides of the panels one of the artists is punching his palm, while the other wraps his knuckles. They are closing in on Shen, who raises his hands in caution and begins to stutter out "I-I MEAN... UM... UM"

Something I like to highlight with ASL are various medical signs. If a deaf person approaches you asking for help; they cant use words, IMO it's important to be able to recognize Medical signs. 🖖🏻🤟🏻

I don't think we'll ever get another sentence which sums up everything the New York Times embodies quite like "Some legal experts have called it a crime to summarily kill civilians".

"No, you can't sleep on the computer keyboard," is one of those odd sentences immediately understood by most humans but very few - perhaps no - cats.

Certainly not this kitten.
