I kind of love how quiet it is. I turn up every couple of days, almost noone has posted anything, it's social media, but only barely. Bliss.

Wishing you peace and healing.

End of semester gift from student:

I don't know why ppl are so worried about AI recognition software. This works like a charm.

Flowers from my students today: "we've been thinking of you professor".

What's happened to all your hair???!!!

So glad to see this iconic series move to bluesky. This is all I need from this platform.

Middle-aged man date.

Yes me too. A colleague recently said "at least we..." And I responded "I wish we didn't."

OpenAI ‘reviewing’ allegations that its AI models were used to make DeepSeek ChatGPT creator warns Chinese startups are ‘constantly’ using its technology to develop competing products

Main teaching goal this semester: get students to stop calling plays "novels" or "books." Also stuck this on my door, hoping student will photograph, repost, someone else will stick on their door and we will soon have infinite regress of door posters on doors. Then retire.

Oh now you've got me doubting. Was Sainsburys MacGregors and Nandos was Papa Johns? Either way that block sucks now.

I also think it sucks that MacGregors is a Nandos. My best hang outs with Nora Bartlett were in MacGregors. And you could buy art supplies downstairs on your way out. Who wants to hang out in Nandos???

Here's my 1st ever bsky post! And it's an internet tip (ikr, unlikely). Fed up with the AI generated summary at the top of every google search that no-one asked for and is killing the planet? Add the Ecosia extension to chrome to get rid of it: otherwise returns same results. www.ecosia.org/browser
