yes ofc hozier isnt just the take me to church guy but also if he has to be defined by one song take me to church is one Hell of a number. no masters or kings when the ritual begins? there is no sweeter innocence than our gentle sin?? can we talk about that? there is NO sweeter innocence, there is nothing more holy than you and i right now. divinity isnt housed in the church and it cant be heard from the mouth of a priest, the ONLY heaven i'll be sent to is when im alone with you . girl what

My least favorite new politically correct term is "unhoused." Like you can just tell it was created to make liberals feel less icky when talking about homeless people.

I was homeless. I was homeless as a child and as an adult. That shit sucks believe it or not.

The uncertainty. The ever-present grimy feeling from lack of access to running water. Having nothing to your name. The shame you feel is asking your fellow man for the bare minimum. Just so much shame, man.

"Unhoused" is so clinical. A technical term. Sure, its not incorrect, but it doesn't properly convey the emotional and psychological impact homelessness has on you.

You say "house", I think of a structure.

You say "home", I think of stability.

As someone who was also homeless as a child, you put my discomfort with this term into words perfectly. I once had to argue with someone who outright refused to use the term homeless because she worked with homeless people, even when I— an actual homeless person— was telling her that it felt like she was sanitising what I actually went through.

I wasn’t just without a house, I was fundamentally living on the outskirts of society without an ounce of stability, and sometimes not even shelter can relieve that. Sometimes I wasn’t unhoused, but I was still homeless.

Just got a chatgpt ad where the use case was "can't decide a new years resolution". I can't think of anything more sad than needing a robot to tell you what your own ambitions are. Loser shit.

Dustin is deliberately self-sabotaging. He’s not being mean to Steve bc he hates him. He’s being mean to Steve bc he hates himself and he wants Steve to hate him too. He’s being a total asshole and he should apologize but apologizing would defeat the purpose of his plan. He doesn’t want Steve to sacrifice himself for him like Eddie did - Dustin doesn’t want his life to be worth that much to Steve. He’s trying to make sure Steve doesn’t care about him anymore. That way he won’t want to die for him and he won’t care if Dustin decides to do a little self-sacrifice himself

I do really think that the use of ChatGPT and genAI by students highlights the fundamental flaw of our education system focusing almost entirely on grades and test scores rather than generating curiosity and inquiry, which produces individuals who fundamentally do not understand that the purpose of an assignment is meant to be to learn *how* to do something, not simply to produce a product you can turn in to get an A+

this is something that i'm currently observing as I teach a second-year uni computer science class (algorithmics if you wanna know). the main concern of my students is always "how is this going to be graded", "when is this graded", "can we have past exams". to them the practicals and lab sessions are almost a hindrance, and it truly breaks my heart!

I have somewhat succeeded in reversing that trend with my class; a lot of my students who initially didn't show a lot of interest in the material are now asking me questions by mail about the topic! one thing that plays into this, IMO, is their view of the teacher. usually the teacher is seen as this god-like entity that exists solely to grade them and dictate their future while not being fun and scary to ask questions to. this is something that makes me extremely uncomfortable and after 1.5 months of teaching in this class, I have somewhat managed to let my students understand that i'm Just A Dude(tm). i beg on my knees for them to ask me questions whenever they're stuck, i tell them every time that there are no dumb questions, but there are still some students who would rather ask chatgpt about a practical tailored specifically so that an AI couldn't reason about the subject, than me the teacher being paid specifically to be there to answer students' questions and help them.

i think the entire thing about chatgpt use in universities is a very complex interlinked set of problems and situations that ultimately harms the students while being an indicator of strong failures on the part of the current style of education, and the society as a whole
