In honor of BoJack Horseman, I've begun calling my dog Mr. Jelly

With AI now integrated across Canvas, I'm thinking of abandoning it altogether.... chronicle.com/article/instru…

I like going onto tiktok lives with like fortnite streamers and post stuff like "did you get the new peepee skin for your character?" "have you found the secret taco gun at the corner of the map?" until they ban me. There are so few concrete joys in the world don't mock me for it

Just heard this ad read: “in a world with AI, it’s harder than ever to tell who’s a bot and who’s not. If you’re human and you know it it’s time to get world ID so everyone knows you’re a human.”

I knew I was moving slowly on yesterday's "run" when an old man, striding briskly—NOT a speed walk, not even—nearly overtook me while casually clearing his throat

Bound to produce the best critical pans this year!

Worried HR are a bit too close with your boss? Join a union.

tbh I would be more inclined to believe the theory that MFA programs ruined American literature if all the people who constantly repeat it weren’t such terrible writers

of course I have taught William Faulkner! "The Sound and the Fury" usually. (contrary to what people think this is not at all a "difficult" novel; "difficult" would be "Ulysses" after the first several, relatively straightforward chapters when we embark upon a drunken delirium…

i can’t stand it when a house collapses onto my bulldozer

Ahh yes the classic part of war that involves demolishing civilian homes with construction equipment. Could happen to anyone.
