What I have learned from reading discussion about Pluribus is that people are really fucking bad at understanding character-driven writing.

This exceptional #UNBC student is waiting right outside my office at the moment.

So I might as well use this opportunity to advertise our Wildlife and Fisheries B.Sc.

Expect fewer mobile discounts from Bell and Telus next year
Bell and Telus have shared how the companies plan to grow, and sadly it's going to be by charging you more money.

It's almost like using a middle man with limited, non-intelligent access to the entire Internet regurgitating words (not information) with no discernment or expertise is bad
Relying on ChatGPT to teach you about a topic leaves you with shallower knowledge than Googling and reading about it, according to new research that compared what more than 10,000 people knew after using one method or the other.

I want to point out that People is doing the thing everyone should do with their headlines: Simply but precisely describe the thing that happened.

Not "In moment some fear to be new norm, president uses language not usually heard from top officials."

Just say what happened. It works
I’m not going to pretend it’s easy to say something in the moment when you witness the president do this and you’re aboard Air Force One with all the uniformed officers and secret service and fancy wood accents, but this is really an instance where you should. people.com/donald-trump...

Seems like there’s some sort of ambient “is it good to stay on X, actually?” going on and my question is this: if there were a newspaper distributed in your town full of racism and Holocaust denial, would you write a column in it because you want to reach people there?

Someone eats something they shouldn't eat and our response is "WHY ISN'T THIS BANNED?!" and not "welp I guess we slap another 'do not eat' sticker on this for people to marvel at and wonder why such a thing is necessary". Shit's fucked.
