It’s so hard to fathom this dependency as a Xennial who did multiple degrees without cheating. I’m not fond of multiple guess tests but not everything can be an essay test. Even so, either is good.

Then, this week, I saw this posting re kids in school not being able to read, more so than usual. Reading a paragraph is teachers “asking too much” and more to that effect. I’m sitting on that line we’ve been in when you hear a batshit post about Trump and initially think, no, no one is that…and then acknowledge that it could be true.

If true, the AI dependency is not surprising.

I’m not defending maga, or some of the shit that’s gone down prior in our long and sometimes sordid history. Everyone has better healthcare, undisputed. But most of my commentary here and in RL comes from this. I believe, in any place, relationship, government where women do not have the legal equality and freedom of men, I see it as evil. I include my own government and country in that estimation. Secular or religious, that context matters not at all, to me. That’s not fed by propaganda. If a woman chooses a certain life, cool. If it’s thrust upon her by circumstance, that’s different.

I am curious. How much of the story of Melina Asadi’s death and such was real and how much was propaganda? I followed those stories.

I mean, it’s not a bad play to stop Israel’s genociding. To be clear, Iran’s regime is evil, they treat their people, especially women, terribly. Meanwhile, Israel has gone off the rails and there doesn’t seem to be a single western power willing to sit them down and have an intervention to get them off this bender of blood and ruin.

So, Iran, of all people, is going to force the point by closing the straight until they do.

You need another YouTube. Free for anyone to post, the same volume, the same storage. Nebula is elite and paid. You and I can’t post on it. The others I’ve seen contain a handful of conspiracy theorists and Linux people.
