If your admin says "but we need to prepare students for AI-driven careers," you can calmly say no. Reiterate that AI-integration is the result of wild capitalist greed, the technologies themselves aren't "generative" or useful in most careers, and students should focus on process-based learning.

Feels dramatic pre 2020 to post 2020. Still have as many amazing students who blow me away but the disparity between those who can do anything and those who can barely function is widening…

I find it so hard to believe these are real people. Pathetic…

Ah cool! I’m familiar only with a few specific images - but this sounds extra amazing!

I’m sure I will! Both for my own work and teaching! We spend a bunch of time with Matt Madden’s work and constraints so this fits perfectly. And I’m guessing you’ve seen Dan Slott’s & @allredmd.bsky.social’s reversible silver surfer issue? Looking forward!

Excited to pick it up - looks amazing!!

We were FaceTiming my parents with this behind us and they were tickled by it and i just couldn’t resist how silly it looked. My tshirt choice was unplanned….

Wow!
November 28, 2025 at 4:21 PM
Ooh very cool! Thanks!

Ha!

Ha - yes, a more nuanced term. People have been telling stories with pictures for a long time…

I hate adding to this list every half hour… bsky.app/profile/snar...
the fact that the news media isn't blasting across every front page of the country how completely unhinged the president is on a 24/7/365 basis, tells me that the news media is completely complicit in Trump's regime.
Trump calls Tim Walz “seriously retarded”

And again and again, yes - he’s awful, but people who hear him and still say, yeah, that’s my guy, grrrr… bsky.app/profile/kevi...
Straight-up sociopath.

Asked about a Guard member who’s dead because of his bullshit and it takes him 30 seconds to make it all about how great he is.
Q: Do you plan to attend Sarah's funeral?

TRUMP: I haven't thought about it yet, but it's certainly something I can conceive of. I love West Virginia. You know, I won West Virginia by one of the biggest margins of any president anywhere.

I know my pictures don’t do this justice, but I was so delighted by these dancing points of light…
