the current administration would totally fall for the Trojan horse. they'd take promo pictures of it on the white house lawn and the president would be on TV talking about how it's made of a big beautiful American lumber or some shit.

Hi everyone, Thank you for taking the time to read this. On Tuesday, March 31,… Jorge V needs your support for Help Bring My Father Home
The entire state of Hawaii has endured 40 inches of rain with no end in sight. There are multiple flood zones. 233 people have had to be rescued. A levee will most likely break and raise the water level to be 40ft high in some places.

Apparently one type of deer hunting practiced in the Middle Ages was using “stalking horses” which involves crouching behind horse in a forest and slowly guiding it towards a deer that’s been tracked because deer are not frightened by the sight of other tall quadrupeds and I like how “horses as a form of camouflage” is belongs to the list of uses for domestic horses

When a student copies an essay online instead of writing it and then painstakingly changes every word to a synonym until the text no longer makes any sense...

Any educator who doesn't feel this on a visceral level has never had to experience the psychic pain of reading the phrase "Unused York City."
This is the fifth anniversary of me receiving the paper that contained "Unused York City." With ChatGPT slop invading my classes like original thought-choking kudzu, I now look back on the copy-paste + Spinbot days with a surprising amount of rosy nostalgia.
I was once in the office and another professor called me over. She was teaching a course on global citizenship.
"I can't figure out what this student is writing about," she said. "She keeps using the phrase 'perspiration stores.' Perspiration stores this, perspiration stores that."
I glanced at the paper and read a paragraph.
"Friend," I said. "She's writing about sweatshops."
This Missal (Texts for the Mass), written in Gothic textualis script, contains a few large red and blue initials with penwork, and a full-page miniature of the Crucifixion with the Virgin Mary below on the left and John the Evangelist on the right. Written in northern Italy, between 1375 and 1425; Crucifixion miniature possibly added in southern Germany in the second half of the 15th century. The binding is very early; it may even be original (UPenn Ms. Codex 2053)

CCing Ibbi-Ilabrat on this one just to make sure we’re all on the same page!
“It is extraordinary that nobody nowadays under the stress of great troubles is turned into stone or a bird or a tree or some inanimate object; they used to undergo such metamorphoses in ancient times (or so they say), though whether that is myth or a true story I know not. Maybe it would be better to change one’s nature into something that lacks all feeling, rather than be so sensitive to evil. Had that been possible, these calamities would in all probability have turned me to stone.”
— The Alexiad, written by Anna Komnene, the daughter of the Byzantine Emperor Alexios I Komnenos, c. 1148.
6th grade truly is the best grade of all to teach because they're young enough to be unabashedly enthusiastic about things but also old enough to get really fucking weird about it. i had a 6th grader request his latin name be "atreus" (not a name on the list i gave them) and when i explained to the class that atreus's family had been cursed for generations and that atreus killed his nephews and fed them to his brother, they all started shouting that they wanted to have a name like that one
today i mentioned murder in ancient rome and they stood up and started cheering
it was back to school night tonight and one of their parents said "i've learned a lot about how people get murdered in ancient rome so far" which means im doing my job right
