Happy 80th anniversary of Hitler killing himself in his bunker to all who celebrate, which, as I now understand it, is not everybody

They need to learn how to think and make connections themselves and thus will facilitate their efficient use of whatever technology comes along. Crafting the right prompt for AI doesn’t take AI training, it takes liberal arts training.

Cowering in the face of online trolls because it's "too distracting" is especially embarrassing considering the insane amount of trolling @rachelgilmore.bsky.social has put up with for YEARS and still managed to do her job, and well.

If you don't like the parents get them the thing with the most elaborate fucking setup that needs to be reconfigured after each use and is loud as all hell.

Writing is thinking.
It’s not a part of the process that can be skipped; it’s the entire point.
Every time we see this, we should repost it.
Let's make it the anti-fascist version of the "Tom Holland Lip lip syncing to Umbrella in a corset" video: everyone must reshare every time, and no one gets annoyed.

Post by Charlotte Clymer: Every transphobic argument can basically be boiled down to: "I actually don't know the science at all or have a good argument here, but trans people challenge my long held view of the world and it's very uncomfortable and everyone should be expected to move around my discomfort."
This…this is it. In a nutshell, yes.

Tweet from Immigration Minister Marc Miller reads: “Yesterday, in the public interest, I issued a temporary resident visa to a foreign national with history of petty criminality both in Canada and abroad. The individual is a religious figure of Greek descent and considered non-violent. Please remain vigilant during this period.”
User responding to Marc Miller says: Temp resident criminal given a visa to stay Canada. Who is this person. Name them if we need to be vigilant.
User responding to Marc Miller says: Why are you giving criminals temporary resident visas? Liberals need to be voted out.”
Marc Miller responds to concerns saying: You better watch out, I'm telling you why...
