“Oh young people are cheating with AI because they’re afraid to be wrong and the system is so bad!” No they’re just lazy. Not every decision anyone ever makes is because they’re a fucking victim in life. They’re asking AI to summarize something for them or for rando internet users to spoon feed them information because they don’t feel like doing it themselves and it doesn’t go deeper than that.

"Oh but they're not excited by every single class they ever take so they have no choice but to cheat!" Shut the fuck up. You're not going to be personally entertained by everything you do in life. That doesn't mean the class is bad or not worth it. Educators are not entertainers. Enough with the excuses for this learned helplessness, and tbh enough with the tone deafness of acting like the educational system in America is the worst in the world when it’s not, especially at the college level where people literally come from all over the world to attend our universities. Grow up! But oops I forgot, 90% of the discourse on this site boils down to using progressive language to justify acting like a bratty teenager and being vehemently incurious about the world

so it turns out that time actually does go by faster as you get older. just like how adults told me it would when i was younger. pisses me off

When you state that Israel is a WHITE colonial project and people start breaking down the demographics of Israelis for you... How do you miss the point so badly. It doesn't matter how diverse the colony is when its PURPOSE is to uphold imperialism and white supremacy in the region. People of color can and have contributed to such projects and it doesn't change what they are. The US army is diverse too and it exists to enforce white imperialism.

[eccentricecologist]

Me when I'm not a white supremacist society:

Protests over the beating of an Ethiopian Israeli soldier have thrown the spotlight on the Ethiopian Jewish community in Israel, writes Prof

60 percent of Israeli Jews favor segregation from Arabs, survey finds

And these two outlets have a vested interest in the continuation of the Zionist project. Even they cannot deny the nature of the colony

[fairuzfan]

Also it's as if the Palestinians who got expelled, killed, tortured care if their occupiers are brown or not lmao, we call it a white settler colony because it was conceived by white colonialists who had a vested interest it removing the native population through means they deemed necessary.

Its also frustratingly annoying that Palestinians have to take into account the demographics of nonPalestinians who settle on their land and kill them when criticizing them. "You're hurting our feelings calling us white while we rape, murder, and torture you :(" is somehow a legitimate argument to israelis and their supporters. I literally don't care who you are, you're killing my people in the name of white settler colonialism. I'm going to call you white.

ok since jk Rowling has picked a new woman of color to harass i feel the need to remind everyone that she's not doing anything strange or like. out of the ordinary. and that women of color (both cis and trans) have always had to fight to be acknowledged as real women in white society. like yes she is being transmisogynistic but she is also continuing a very long lasting racist & white supremacist tradition of denying women of color our womanhood.

[spiderbitesandvampirevenom]

like a lot of the people who like to mock her treat these incidents as isolated instances of black-mold induced transphobia that is misdirected at women of color. which is not true. she is literally just doing something white women have done to women of color for centuries. gatekeeping being a woman behind whiteness.

Since we keep getting "live action" CGI remakes of already perfectly adequate animated movies, and because people need to understand that animation is a medium and not a genre, I have prepared this primer about the importance of Visual Language for Conveying Information.

Can you tell what the personalities of these two mice are?

Can you tell now?

Which of these two tigers feels safer to be around?

Which of these three dogs is the funniest one?

If you can answer these questions, then you already have experience with the idea of visual language and stylistic choices being used to impart narrative meaning. If you can understand why these choices were made to impart meaning, then you can understand why animation is a medium for telling stories that has its own inherent value, and is not merely a "placeholder" for the eventual implementation of photorealistic presentation (aka "Live Action" CGI). Animation does not need to be "corrected" or "legitimized" by remaking it into the most representational simulation of observable reality.

we need to make using chatgpt embarrassing bc sorry it really is. what do you mean you can’t write an email

[lesbinewren]

“ikr i only use it for-“ whatever you use chatgpt for is also embarrassing. you do not need the plagiarism machine that lies and evaporates water for anything actually

Prev these are some good tags

[electric-butter-slug]

Those tags are LEGIT. Canada has gotten so bad in recent years because provincial governments are so confident overstepping in wake of Trump. I cannot stress enough how important it is that all Americans get out and vote.

I don't care how you feel more moral not voting because it matters so so so much and anyone trying to tell you otherwise is doing so to get Trump or someone like him back in power by using your non vote. It's bad for everyone.

Do not let them convince you not to vote.

[tlirsgender]

I joke about being mean and evil but then people are Actually just genuinely shitty and I’m like. Doesn’t it make you feel bad when you act like that

[bluelivesaintshit]

Just want everyone to know when I say ‘evil’ I really just mean “villainous and campy like a cartoon antagonist”

Listen to me: You get good at things by being bad at them. You learn by failing. You gain competency and a sense of mastery by failing at something many times and in many interesting ways.

The sooner you are able to laugh at your own failures, to enjoy the process of messing up, the easier life will be. Because you'll no longer be afraid of learning.

And once you're no longer afraid of failing, you can learn anything.

[moonwaterandrain]

i wish it were as easy as it sounds

[turtlesandfrogs]

And that's the thing of it, isn't it? Failing and accepting a failure is itself a skill.

And it can be very hard to learn, especially if you come from a family where a failure is a sign that you are a failure instead of a sign that you are learning.

You're going to fail at failing well. There are going to be times when it hurts, times when your brain is telling you that you should just give up and you'll never get it. Times when a failure is going to frustrate you to no end.

And you can still learn to fail well. You can learn to see it as a sign that you're learning, you can learn to give a little chuckle and say to yourself, well, everyone screws up sometimes, I'm just learning.

It is not easy, but it is important.

there’s absolutely something to be said about ‘booktok’ books being largely wattpad quality written erotica i’m certainly not reading them however having seen a guy on tiktok make a video like ‘all the women in your life are READING PORN’ about a book he picked up and read in his FEMALE FRIEND’S HOUSE in a tone of scandalised horror and disgust i actually don’t think men should be making those criticisms. he said he picked it up expecting a romance and was horrified it was GOONER SHIT he said specifically like ‘who are you getting your pussy wet FOR??’ in a tone of revulsion. idk man im not sure shes the weird one. i kind of wish you were dead

[darlingofdots]

"a lot of books that are successful on booktok are not very good" and "people can read what they want and we need to stop being so fucking weird about women enjoying erotica" are both correct statements

[vosveti]

Anyway, they would be best friends
