One of my biggest pet peeves is when people start a statement with a qualifier based on their identity. "As a Christian," "As a physician," "As a gay person." etc. Just say what you have to say. If your statement doesn't speak for itself, don't bother saying it.

my snowflake opinion is that subtitles should always be on by default, and their incorporation should be considered an essential part of the design process tbh

I was very anti-subtitles until I had kids. You try watching tv without subtitles while a toddler runs, screams, laughs, cries, etc. as loud as he can in the room with you and see how much you can make out.

Hands down the most interesting landlord special I've seen so far. Oddly tilting stairs w/carpet, teeny shower at the top, toilet pole b/c there's not much room to maneuver up there, then the sink on the floor so you can wash up from the stairs. Luxury towel heater, though.

This is what homes look like in my dreams when I'm trying to escape

I can't tell if this is absolutely cursed or if it's a creative use of an otherwise useless space.

I'm going to add to this with advice for any teacher running into this situation.

Ask to borrow the kid's computer for a second, and use the AI. Pick a word, then pick a letter that is not in that word. Ask chatGPT how many times that letter appears in said word. (Avoid "how many Ns in Mayonnaise" because that went viral and got trained out.) Hell, give ChatGPT multiple tries. Ask it to demonstrate each time that letter appears in a word.

Let the entire class witness chatGPT fail. Because it cannot count. It cannot spell. It cannot think. Please put your lesson plans aside for a class and use it as a learning opportunity.

To add to your arsenal for educating these kids, please look into the concept of AI hallucination. AI cannot perceive things and has no ability to think critically, which means it cannot tell what's real and what's not. Really drill into these kids that they are better off asking advice from a toddler.

I used the characterAI bot instead of chatGPT in this case, but chatGPT has the same issues, because neither bot is capable of thinking about what it's saying.

ChatGPT literally says "ChatGPT can make mistakes. Check important info." directly under the search bar.

I was going to comment that you could use the tumbler top post finder, but you have to do that by year and whenever I used the way back button to go back to my dash at the dawn of time- You were the only person there.

I've got one post at almost 800k and another about 450k

If you keep a gun loaded for self-defense, how often do you need to swap the round in the chamber?

I shoot a magazine of defensive ammo every time I hit the range for pistol. so then.

I just take whatever round got chambered last and put it at the bottom of the magazine so that the same round doesn't get chambered excessively.
