Opinion | Why Even Basic A.I. Use Is So Bad for Students

It probably doesn’t matter but I would be flooding the zone with images of the White House destruction right now.

The clips and conversations I’m hearing about the SNAP (food stamp) cuts should be above the fold everywhere. It’s a scary time for a lot of people.
