Okay, well, Phillies need to bring the exact same energy into tomorrow, and the Diamondbacks need to bring entirely different energy. We'll try this again then.

It's very rude to me, a delusional Diamondbacks fan, that the Phillies game is delayed.
i really can’t bring myself to care about AI anthropomorphism debates. “is AI thinking?” i don’t know. is a calculator calculating? questions for the philosophers. what’s important is that we put sam altman in prison.
Lars Nootbaar homers on the first pitch of the game in San Diego. Snakes alive.
Obviously, I was influenced by reading the NY Times list first, which criminally underrated both Hacks & Station 11, but when I tried to think about shows that were left off, Broadchurch is what immediately came to mind.
Class DoJo is a plague on our household. Kick these AI bros out of education.
Wat@a-wat.blacksky.app · last mo.The app my daughter’s school uses for chat with the teachers and important updates is also an app that is trying to upsell us on services like photos, tutoring, and educational games and I HATE IT. I shouldn’t have to x out of an upsell ad because I saw a teacher post an update.
We're bringing some whimsy to the course AI statement this year.
I online adjunct for a certain for-profit university. I hate everything they stand for, but the academic job market is so precarious, I've always kept it in case my lectureship is non-renewed. Well, I'll have to get over that anxiety, because they just implemented automated AI grading w/ no opt-out.
I decided to start actually watching baseball after last year's world series, and it took one season to move me from "baseball is so boring; who why would anyone watch it?" to "baseball is the perfect sport." #GoDBacks 🐍
Highway robbery from Corbin Carroll to steal a home run from Tommy Edman
Wow. Ryan Waldschmidt walks it off with a two-run homer against Edwin Díaz. Dodgers have lost seven in a row.
Okay writing faculty, what are we doing to go more analog and human in the classroom while also keeping our classes accessible? After two years of teaching online sections during this AI hellscape, I'm back in the classroom this year and looking to try some new (& old) things #academicsky #edusky
What kind of awesome sorcery is going on at Fairlife, and why have no other protein shake companies discovered their secret yet?
It's that time of year again in Arizona: teachers are going back to work! My sister teaches first grade in a title one school, and she and her kiddos would greatly appreciate any help with supplies: www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/...

"how were people writing 10 page papers before AI???" we were smarter than you. you could've been smart, too. but you sold your brain for nothing
It’s such a bummer. Online/asynchronous/virtual teaching can be incredibly valuable and with a little extra structure can be an amazing and scalable resource but now AI has rendered the whole enterprise impossible.
I'm finally reading The Locked Tomb series years too late, and now I have no one to talk about it with. 😭
I actually won two Goodreads giveaways recently! I just got this one, thought, huh, ok, I forgot I entered this one. Then I read the back cover and got the ick 😬.
Why, in the Year of Our Lord 2026, do we not have sour Nerds Gummy Clusters yet?
I get folks not involved in education might not realize how severe the current situation is but... The speed and magnitude of how capitalism driven AI has infiltrated education is horrifying.
It's homophobic for the Diamondbacks to do this on Pride Night. 🍅🍅🍅
What a staggering loss. RIP Marjane Satrapi.

Don't mind me; just sobbing so badly to my favorite comedy's finale I can't finish my drink. 💅
