For the past six weeks, an AI Facebook account has been pulling my history posts on Instagram and slopping out new captions, so I’ve been feeding it poison pills and its followers are having meltdowns in the comments. It’s been pretty spectacular.

Okay, no joke. I've taught 5th grade and yeah, this is probably the level of sophistication I would expect...and then I'd have a writing conference and we'd fix it together because phew...that's not good for any grade level.

We hear this same shit with pastors.
Of course he can work. Nine times out of ten it just means that he just can't be in a place of 1. power over children & vulnerable people and 2. he can't have access to large funds.
The scary thing is they often have zero skills outside of scams and abuse.

Every single one is hilarious and chaotic. The run-up to her daughter's engagement and marriage was like something out of Real Housewives. But this? THIS? The story of her new son-in-law's um...not arm?

I spent the last 15 years teaching children to use Creative Commons and how to look for legal stock photos.
It's not that hard! Eight-year-olds can do it!
Illustrations in an autumn-color-grade is 100% AI coded to me now because of how ubiquitous it is on Linkedin.

It's scary seeing how reckless gambling is just infiltrating life for a lot of men my age. Even FB fragrance groups are overrun with "waffles", raffles to "win" a fragrance for cheap but you are putting $20-30 down that you never get back.

We used to have (do we anymore?) English Language Arts (ELA) standards in state documents teaching students to "read" images and the importance of understanding propaganda (this was always a social studies crossover) as well as the role of photography in world events.

This was part of a thread about bringing back actual curses towards ICE and others. (your wife is banging someone else is not a curse. It's for 12 year-olds)

The song I thought of was funny enough from Muppet Christmas Carol:
Doomed, you're doomed for all time
Your future is a horror story written by your crimes
Your chains are forged by what you say and do
So have fun, when life is done, a nightmare waits for you.

Absolutely screaming.
She's fancasting the next Hallmark Christmas movie in her head and also being like "I'm a brick house! LOL"

Opened to a random page and got this gem about the Tsar. World-class poster energy.

Literally how we heard about my dad's uncle passing last week. They didn't announce to family members any other way. It's pretty much infrastructure for several industries and situations which is unfortunate given the leadership.

I had this happen with a doctors office calling me about scan results and an upcoming appointment. I called and they were stunned it was the wrong number and then continued to call and leave messages. I was like you need to find your actual patient! This is too important to f* up!

When I was a kid, my dad did a TV spot for our symphony & got free tickets to the summer pops. We got great seats...a few yards from the Howitzers. Because it was a navy pier, when that bit of the 1812 hit, we had the initial BOOM from the blank & then the rebound from the next pier seconds later. 😱
