Don’t think how much they are getting paid is a factor either or why it would be. The class sounds awesome though and so do your solutions

Take this with a grain of salt but it sounds like your library staffers have no idea what they are doing or maybe there are other limitations I’m not aware ofβ€”have never heard of this sort of thing before!

getting this wrapped up in politicians really is freak shit. not healthy at all. they're eminently replaceable people you should be willing to dump the moment they're no longer useful. elected office isn't something owed to them

It’s ok not to like stuff is my main pointβ€”there’s so much music out thereβ€”it’s funny when people get mad at this kinda stuff tho. I find them to be dull!

a conversation between bruce springsteen and jeremy allen white
BRUCE: one thing i don't get is why you guys don't price those italian beef sandwiches way higher. if you're that popular, you can really squeeze people.
JEREMY: does anyone want me to take off my shirt

folks can complain about the effectiveness of scheduled orderly mass protest but to think about it another way its the closest thing we have to the opening scene of A Muppet Christmas Carol where all the muppets sing "there goes Mr. Dipshit, there goes Mr. Ass" to Scrooge and it clearly bothered him

Interesting. Just reread it this past year and feel strongly he should have ended it right after the Swede found Merry + the brother was like "Go and get her"--the dinner party scene was interminable.

Whatever you do, don't start explaining microcards or microfilm. It won't go well.

It's funny that in the chat GPT usage of the em dash, all of the parenthetical is to the right--like this. The humans--who are superior writers in every way to computers--nest the parenthetical inside the em dashes.

He Grew Obsessed With an AI Chatbot. Then He Vanished in the Ozarks Jon Ganz committed a terrible crime in his youth, but he survived prison, fell in love, and started over. His new life unraveled in a way nobody could have predicted.

This is the biggest, toughest article I’ve done about so-called β€œAI psychosis.” It’s the story of a man who committed a horrific crime in his youth but served his time and against all odds found love and a new lifeβ€”one that completely unraveled after he started talking to Google’s Gemini chatbot.
