Anti-GenAI. Pro-critical thinking. Defiantly she/her. I have opinions and I know things.

"AI will let us turn PhDs from 4 year degrees into 6 month degrees!"

Literally shitting on the part that makes it intellectual development. It requires things like *reading* for yourself and *writing* for yourself. Those aren't chores, they're part of skills acquisition and critical development.

I'd like to sue him for millions of dollars, if only to pay my therapy bills, since 2016 through 2050 because I am sure I will have PTSD from his reign of terror.

"Joe Biden pulled off perhaps the greatest oil trade of all time and in the process broke OPEC's grip and basically no one knows about it."

Yup. Joe Biden was an amazing President who made this country stronger and its people more secure. And he gets ZERO credit for it. It's infuriating.

When DOGE Unleashed ChatGPT on the Humanities

DOGE used AI to gut funding for the National Endowment for the Humanities.

No oversight, no double-checkingβ€”they just blindly trusted ChatGPT to take $100 million away from projects across the country. https://www.nytimes.com/2026/03/07/arts/humanities-endowment-doge-trump.html

Supposedly Claude found security bugs in Firefox but only 2 were exploitable. But also, how many of those were installed recently and it still hallucinates so who knows?

I shop at Aldi. You should see the random places people leave cherry pits! It's gross!

Wild to me that people will grab produce that costs by the pound and eat it while shopping, like bananas, grapes or cherries. That is literally the definition of stealing food.

Sen. Tim Kaine says supporting Kristi Noem as DHS secretary was a "big mistake" Sen. Tim Kaine, a Virginia Democrat, expressed regret on Sunday for supporting Kristi Noem for Department of Homeland Security secretary last year.

I'm not sure if this is real remorse or a case of, so deep in the weeds, can't see the forest for the trees. We were all screaming about Noem and Miller for over a year. Read P2025 dude. CATCH UP! www.cbsnews.com/amp/news/tim...

Every time I read an article or see a headline about America's current economic woes it pisses me off. I get pissed because it is all self inflicted. The people who chose to vote white instead of right, helped usher in the economic shit show being pushed by Toupee Fiasco.

2 years from now, 5 years from now, 10 years from now, and 20 years from now, Americans are going to be subject to attacks here and all over the world because of what Trump is doing right now.

I do not like this gen AI
I do not like what it implies
I do not want it in my art
I do not think it makes you smart
I do not want it in my games
I do not like its goals and aims
I do not want it in my books
I do not like the way it looks
I do not like it, I don't care
I do not want it anywhere

Bill to require factual teaching about US Capitol attack clears Va. General Assembly - WTOP News The Virginia measure would dictate what Virginia’s public schools can instruct pupils regarding the Jan. 6 Capitol riot.

Have we really come to a point where we have to mandate that schools teach FACTS? Why yes, apparently we have. wtop.com/virginia/202...

AFAICT, it is transformational to managers who 1) haven’t touched code in a decade and 2) weren’t stellar coders in it for the love of it when they were, who 3) believe it will transform & speed lines of code written when 4) that’s actually not how we’ve measured code efficacy for more than a decade

Trump's DEI crackdown hit a wall in court. What's next? Sarah Hinger, deputy director of the ACLU Racial Justice Program, walks though how a federal judge’s ruling could impact state law.

The Trump administration's Dear Colleague Letter, which attempted to dismantle the diversity, equity, and inclusion programs in schools nationwide, is no longer in effect and can't be enforced.

Learn more about how this will impact classrooms across the country.

Trump’s war will easily cost more than it would have cost to extend the ACA tax credits.

Republicans are telling the American peopleβ€”there is always money for war, always money for billionaire tax breaks.

Just never any money for health care or families here at home.

FUN FACT:

If no one uses OpenAl, OpenAl dies.

The same goes for many Big Tech corporations and their AI platforms.

We are the ones that set the expiration dates.

Anti-vaxxers are bad parents. Not vaccinating your child is abuse.

We should eliminate all non-medical exemptions for vaccines.

I have seen a lot of cursed stuff in my time in academia but this is among the *most* cursed.
Grammarly is generating miniature LLMs based on academic work so that users can have their writing β€˜reviewed’ by experts like David Abulafia, who died less than two months ago.

For real. I interpret data like this as showing us there are lots of students who believe--or have been told--their own voices and abilities are inadequate.
