"Non-men" is wild demand oO

Overall they act as morons honestly. Not very scholarly or professional at all.

So they will get less of nurses and teachers and proceed to scream on how awful everything is? Sabotage.

I only am sad for real people who won't get care in time and in full extent...

Happy Independence Day, Estonia! ✨

On 24 February, Estonia celebrates its independence, and we'd like to highlight it's progress towards a climate-neutral future. 🌱

Palju õnne Eesti Vabariigi aastapäevaks!

Well, they were enjoying their bloody money spending on European vacations up until now...one may wonder if EU hadn't ban them before on purpose

Нажаль, ми ще не набули іншого досвіду, коли ці дати будуть все ще болючою пам'яттю але у мирній стабільній реальності.

Шана захисникам, у цьому вимірі і інших, моя свіча в вікні світить сьогодні і завжди. Слава Україні.

Стараюсь не занурюватись у спогади і ховаюсь від нескінченних постів у соцмережах. Як на мене, це парад ретравматизації, як досвідчений с-ptsd-людина знаю, що наша психика дійсно природньо реагує на такі дати, тому з собою теж треба обережно.

Контрольовано розхитуватись але не надламуватись.

How about deep green for a border? Connects with pic but provides a nice contrast

But in general you can't do better than offline trying different options and seeing them with your own eyes

And I thought I would be overdoing by baking just couple batches more stollen than really needed.

You did so well! May I ask, how much do you bake for one gift? I am thinking to make it 400-500g bag per one

Tom Stoppard. One of the great writers. An epic wordsmith whose craft was such that one only compares themselves to him aspirationally. ROSENCRANTZ AND GUILDENSTERN ARE DEAD. SHAKESPEARE IN LOVE. BRAZIL. EMPIRE OF THE SUN. BILLY BATHGATE. ANNA KARENINA. Stage, screen, print. A genius. Rest in peace.

Yes, I was thinking of it as of relaxing/reflective activity, no strings attached. Or tiny pieces of creative challenges to discuss and compare but again, more for fun than for serious commitment

Things like "write with ai and edit or guess where ai and where is a human written text" become a bit boring too soon..
How do you solve it?

What do you think will be helpful for students to actually boost writing skills and encourage them to do it without ai? I'm thinking that we could run like 10 min practice in class where they are in conditions that limit their ability to use gadgets/ai by default so they experience less temptation?

Never forget that Norman Rockwell, debatably the most famous American artist to ever put brush to canvas, was not afraid to show the ugliness along with the good. Having his work/reputation sanitized and trimmed into marketable nostalgia is about American as it gets.

Sure but when we migrate we tend to pay more attention to adapting, studying, learning and trying to compile a life in general so for many their language freezes! I am out of country now too but I read/speak/work everyday so I don't have a chance to miss new memes and little changes in usage.

How cool! Well, I know some families speak a bit outdated version of language because that was the stage frozen in the memory at the moment of leaving. And yes, some just want to know more or be able to write, for example. Creative writing may be tricky;)

How useful half-truth is, huh

Just delete things you don't like, easy. Of course
