I was relieved last week when I discovered that my kids’ school is now a mobile phone free school. One less battle to fight! #smartphonefreechildhood #malmö #smartphones

Israel just bombed the only Catholic Church left in Gaza.

It is so sickening.

Not as convenient as being able to turn off the AI component of the search, but better than nothing.

The idea is basically to type “-AI” after your search terms.

An easy way to reduce energy consumption on your Google (etc.) searches.

So excited to incorporate AI into the classroom and liberate my students from boring tasks like reading and thinking

Thank you for posting this. It looks like a valuable resource.

I just finished The Future by @naomialderman.bsky.social. Definitely my favourite book so far this year. If you like near-future tech-cynical sci-fi and pondering questions of ethics (entitlement of wealth, enclosure vs. commons, etc.) this might be the summer reading for you.

Did you miss this the first time around?
Call for papers - Are you or do you know a student who has written (or is writing) an academic work on Palestine? Submit an abstract of your text via the Tally form (post 2) or contact us by email (post 4). Deadline 4 July!

Read about Graham King, who became a billionaire providing squalid, substandard hostels for asylum seekers.

We do weird It's time to stop apologising for mystical experiences and brushing miracles under the carpet in the name of 'seeker sensitivity', says Pete Greig. It's the supernatural claims of Christianity that make it stand apart - and people are hungry for it

A provocative piece by Pete Greig on the importance of acknowledging (celebrating!) the weirdness in the Christian way of life.
