I’m dumb and/or not following this at all. What does that mean in this context: that they can’t actually say that the lettuce was from Mexico?

Chimera! It’s, um, two pre-cats that became one cat at some point in utero. Literally two different genetics fused into one special kitty.

Mamdani went on a visit to a kindergarten class with Ms. Rachel a few months ago. The babies on the bus are going wah-wah-wah.

Yes, thanks to Ossoff. I’ve seen too many versions of this conversation where the representative lets the issue drop, as though assuming that they should back off and hope viewers got the point. This was much better done and Ossoff’s clear-headedness is a breath of fresh air.

Gosh, I wish someone would make some similar pain happen in the U.S. We seem to only care about war with Iran when gas prices rise too high.

I wish that were still so. I’m fixated on 9am being the time work used to begin.

So would you say that the article OP posted is misleading, and that the 16 to 24 bracket had also previously done worse on the test?

…uh, should I worry?

What about Uncle Sam cereal? It’s gone now, bought by a big cereal company and nearly immediately shut down, but there was nothing as fibrous and un-sugared on the American cereal market as that. Oh, sigh, Uncle Sam.

I mean, I wouldn’t care what brand it was if there were anything comparable. But given that it was the only one like it, I was extremely loyal.

I’m a registered Independent and I just signed up to pay monthly dues to the Democratic Socialists of America (specifically after seeing Mike Johnson make extremely positive statements about the DSA in a hilariously misguided attempt to scare people 😂).

Link is to New Republic, if someone has a better link please include.

It’s part of the joke. He’s never in public without the suit.

I keep wanting to make “we are flocked” signs with arrows pointing at the cameras, but I don’t know if I should worry about putting them up.

Meth seems to also be better when you walk erratically along the side of a busy road while holding your arms out and wiggling them.

I thought it said "Trump assassinated… "

very certain death

Uh, no? This is unproductive fearmongering. I’ve come across plenty of black bears with cubs in tow. Keep your distance, be loud, and don’t get between them.

Edit: add quote

Maybe get an intercom

As a public school teacher, part of our training on AI is to use it in our classrooms and to talk about using it, like you would in making a citation.

I do use it to construct rote tasks, especially materials for vocabulary practice which are great but aren’t worth my energy to spend much time on. I always tell the kids when I’ve used AI to create sentences, etc. I think it’s great for them to see usage modelled responsibly.

It would be a disadvantage to deny kids usage altogether, and prompting AI should be explicitly taught as a skill set. Cheating is definitely an issue, but more and more teachers are moving away from rampant computer usage in class and thinking actively about how to forestall such cheating.

I’m GPS free and greatly enjoy having to figure out where I’m going before I leave the house. What are some other examples of your de-digitzed life?

My dad used to be part of a pre-internet Kate Bush mailing list… In which he would get and send real mail! To send messages, you would make however many copies and mail them to one person who had everyone else’s addresses. I continue to think this is super cool and creative.

This is what I scrolled down for. Thank you.
