We need a Generative AI Code of Conduct at the University level because it's becoming increasingly clear that my colleagues (other professors and ESPECIALLY admin) are using AI way more than my students are.

NB: When I, a professor of law, profess that an act is unlawful, I am not doing it to inform the lawbreaker, but rather to inform you, the reader.
So the question “what, like you think he cares?” is inapposite. The question is whether *you* care. I think you should, which is why I bother.

Very seriously, are my standards too high? I expect people to understand they're on a global social media so are talking to people living in other countries, with different customs, accents/words, and food. I expect people to infer some basic meaning and understand if a topic is for them or not.

A word.
My sense is that the “male loneliness crisis” is not really about addressing men’s emotional needs but rather the relatively newfound absence of having someone to perform domestic labor for you quietly in the background now that there is a longer gap between your mother and your wife doing it

I don’t think I’ll ever get used to my own parent hating me so much that she now hates the grand child who reminds her too much of me as well.
So if you ever read my characters with broken families and mothers who hate them…that’s just me working through my own grief.

People are really out here advocating that all of the Epstein photos to be released to the public. We do not need to have CSAM released into the public, even with faces or whatever else blocked out. I do not want to scroll down my timeline and see a teenager being violated, and you shouldn’t either.

Sorry for using comics and art to vent and cope with the world changing around me. I will return to drawing whimsical and silly frog wizards and adventures.

I’ve just started roasting my students for using AI. Watching them on GoGuardian, saying, “Really? Someone had to ask Gemini what Montag wants? You can’t answer that question without the help of a machine who can’t actually do any critical thinking because it doesn’t have a brain? Couldn’t be me.”

They get a housing allowance, healthcare, commissaries, etc. the military is a socialist society!
Because no one wants to admit that the military is essentially a model of a socialist society.
