My husband: I read a really interesting article about accommodations in the Atlantic today!
Me: yeah I read a really interesting debunking of that article!

Season 2 is good but Ron Swanson's desire to destroy the government is hard to watch in 2025.

AI does not support "deeper learning," and stop training robots to do our jobs.

Niece: some Oreos have orange frosting.
Me: yes, some of them have green frosting too.
Niece: no they don't.

I wish we could even figure out a way to turn off the AI summary on school Chromebooks!

Yes it's like my 9th grade students' obsession with being "nonchalant."

And he is right to be concerned about that in any language, as he is a loathesome excuse for a human being.

I honestly didn't know I gave a shit about the White House until this week.

Yeah it really is sad. Like. Is this the best Democrats can do?

I'm no longer accepting any romance novel recommendations from you.

I think Slate has figured out that they get more clicks and engagement with obviously terrible advice.

Thanks for shutting down the government rather than giving in to this nonsense.

We have a turkey named Fred that lives outside the convenience store on Locust. He's a lone bird though.

Yes we have an AI PLC at my school and I'm like. Guys. Please stop trying to teach robots to do our jobs.

After getting some ouchy vaccine shots on Friday, my daughter said, "you know, I feel like doctors really overestimate how much people like stickers."

I agree in theory but how do you know if the person is trolling?

Clearly if wishing someone was dead worked it would already have worked by now. But since he's alive I hope he is miserable

Why does this blurb sound like the combined obituary/real estate newspaper section described in When Harry Met Sally?

Michael have you been sitting in on the bike lane discussions in Northampton MA? You display insider knowledge

Y'all, the writer decided in the end that ChatGPT was not helpful as a couple's therapist. Which we all knew, but still, the article is not actually pro-AI.

The mainstream media's obsession with writing incessantly about AGI, despite the fact that it's not going to happen any time soon, is driving students to drop out.

I felt like Doug's "beat the ugly out of you" comment was in-character given that didn't he threaten Pacey with a GUN in season one? Granted, that was so insane that it never should have happened either.

A paperback copy of Belinda, by Maria Edgeworth. Its pages are festooned with blue, yellow, and green Post-its.

Just got this used book in the mail. I really hope the person who annotated had good opinions!

I hope you guys will consider revisiting this episode if you get a chance to read Careless People. Sheryl Sandburg pressured a woman who was 9 months pregnant to a) fly internationally and b) snuggle with her on the flight home.

I haven't gone there since they started their "don't say gay" nonsense. Happy to keep it up.

I'll never forget the pure, unadulterated joy I felt the day he died.
