They misspelled Carranza on a jersey once & wouldn’t let me return it

wish my father was still alive & I could read this aloud to him at the thanksgiving table today

this is an obscure choice

Carved turnip with eye sockets and a red mouth with teeth

I know it's harder and more dangerous to carve a turnip but the effect is so much more disturbing, and thus in keeping with the season

[Exit King.]

In about three years the entire university pivot to AI curricula and schools and programs is going to be so deeply embarrassing. We will all pretend it never happened and I will be standing there, looking at people with a mirror in my eyes. This is all so embarrassing.

I said nothing, and tried to think nothing.

enjoyed these so much!

Today is a day when arts degrees are worthless, but the product of those degrees is so valuable it would kill an entire industry if they were made to pay for it.

weird sidenote: my brain didn't shift to Irish context fast enough & I thought you were saying "do you fucking guys not realise"

Passyunk

Matrix (novel) by Lauren Goff. Kristen Holt-Browning, Ordinary Devotion (another novel). I have 2 books of poetry that are pretty medieval— Wifthing (on Margery Kempe, Elizabeth Woodville, others) & bk of (h)rs (on books of hours & other art)

Such sad news. I learned so much about Irish from Manchán & I’m so grateful for all his work. Suaimhneas síoraí air 💚

Hooray!

Dès 2019, leur slogan « Brits out! >> (<< dehors, les rosbifs ! >>) ou leurs violentes saillies contre les députés conservateurs ulcèrent l'establishment. La machine à polémiques s'emballe en avril dernier quand le groupe, coiffé de keffiehs au festival Coachella, s'en prend au gouvernement américain << qui arme et finance des crimes de guerre » à Gaza.

The French for Brits Out is << dehors, les rosbifs ! >>

Imagine just using your mind to think instead. This type of ai use might be the most pathetic

Or maybe Caoimhín is great 💚

Nope

So jealous I’m dying

this is such an odd image

please tell me what happens & how it goes later! I've banned it completely & we're doing lots of handwritten work in class, but in a lit class. FYW is a whole other realm for this issue

the drawing makes the subtext into text

its genre makes it much creepier
