Hey if you or your language and #linguistics students are looking for some end-of-term de-stressing, I put a couple more pages from my coloring book project up here: tinyurl.com/coloring-gre...
![Completed coloring sheet. Block letters read "Every body has an accent," with one word on each line. A forearm palm up shows three tattoos in an homage to American traditional style: A rose; a horseshoe with '[ɡʊd lʌk' written on it, and a heart tattoo with a banner reading "[mɑm mam mʌm mɒm]]". In the space around the arm, a pair of hands meant to represent the ASL sign for "sign" and a mouth. The negative space is filled with stars.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:liba4kwcbq2y7o5aq6ar7yse/bafkreia2a26v2kunxmblpcwcavskdp6wjy3kc453a66bufukwxwdwqd2ym@jpeg)

not to be histrionic but I kind of feel like the confluence of Trumpism, algorithmic social media, and LLMs have placed language and the fundamental proposition that words have meaning under unprecedented strain and it’s freaking me out more than a bit

"So a student might hear "don't use generative AI" from a prof but then log on to the university's Microsoft suite, which then suggests using Copilot to sum up readings or help draft writing. It's inconsistent and confusing."
