I like how this is the only place on the internet I personally don't feel like I have to put on a performance. IG is too vapid and Facebook is too old. Twitter is evil and bluesky is cool but very horny. Here I can talk about how everything and everyone in the world is pissing me off and there will be a string of comments going "go piss girl" and y'know what they're right

The filter relies on manually curated open-source blocklists, including the ‘nuclear’ list, provided by uBlockOrigin and uBlacklist Huge AI Blocklist,” DuckDuckGo said in a post on X. “While it won’t catch 100% of AI-generated results, it will greatly reduce the number of AI-generated images you see.

Left: AI filter is off Right: AI filter is on

im sure someone already made a post about it but i came across a ublock origin add-on that blacklists around 950 AI websites and disables AI overview ☝️ so u can be free from seeing AI in your search

I can't believe I have to say this, but--

TRIGGER WARNING: GAY CLOWNS

Uhhhhhh idk man, I've been really bogged down in the weeds of building the style guide for the final version of Inheritance (the one that will be in print!), and somewhere in the delirium of choosing fonts and brushes and textures, my brain was like "haha what if...Rivro were commedia dell'arte clowns..."

Sorry if you're scared of clowns. At least they're European clowns and not stupid honk-honk clowns, idk why but I personally wanna choke out the Ronald McDonald-It-Bozo type of clown myself

also I never embarrass Ro enough so I made him Pagliacci cuz he's emo, the end

Early Lesbian Film: The Jester's Joke (1912), Dir. Walter R. Booth

This 6-minute short film is a lesbian take on classic Commedia dell'arte character dynamics.

Harlequina uses magical cigarette smoke to create Columbina and two Pierrots. The Pierrots attempt to court Columbina unsucessfully, then Harlequina uses her magic to make them vanish. Harlequina then flirts and dances with Columbina, and finally uses her smoke to create a third woman in a gown.

I’m paying to force seven thousand strangers to see a photo of my late husband having fun with his dog. Tumblr Blaze is totally worth it. XD

you guys HAVE to take “is dumb” off the end of your username. you have to take “my shit rambles” out of your talking tag. you have to stop apologizing for existing. I get so sad for every url I see like “[name]’s-stupid-reblogs” and every blog I open with a title like “pointless posts” and every opinion post I see tagged something derogatory by op!! speaking as someone whose post tag used to be “makes bad posts.” stop actively putting up roadblocks for yourself!! why do we always say bullying is bad but never when we’re bullying ourselves

Whenever I think about students using AI, I think about an essay I did in high school. Now see, we were reading The Grapes of Wrath, and I just couldn't do it. I got 25 pages in and my brain refused to read any more. I hated it. And its not like I hate the classics, I loved English class and I loved reading. I had even enjoyed Of Mice and Men, which I had read for fun. For some reason though, I absolutely could NOT read The Grapes of Wrath.

And it turned out I also couldn't watch the movie. I fell asleep in class both days we were watching it.

This, of course, meant I had to cheat on my essay.

And I got an A.

The essay was to compare the book and the movie and discuss the changes and how that affected the story.

Well it turned out Sparknotes had an entire section devoted to comparing and contrasting the book and the movie. Using that, and flipping to pages mentioned in Sparknotes to read sections of the book, I was able to bullshit an A paper.

But see the thing is, that this kind of 'cheating' still takes skills, you still learn things.

I had to know how to find the information I needed, I needed to be able to comprehend what sparknotes was saying and the analysis they did, I needed to know how to USE the information I read there to write an essay, I needed to know how to make sure none of it was marked as plagerized. I had to form an opinion on the sparknotes analysis so I could express my own opinions in the essay.

Was it cheating? Yeah, I didn't read the book or watch the movie. I used Sparknotes. It was a lot less work than if I had read the book and watched the movie and done it all myself.

The thing is though, I still had to use my fucking brain. Being able to bullshit an essay like that is a skill in and of itself that is useful. I exercised important skills, and even if it wasnt the intended way I still learned.

ChatGTP and other AI do not give that experience to people, people have to do nothing and gain nothing from it.

Using AI is absolutely different from other ways students have cheated in the past, and I stand by my opinion that its making students dumber, more helpless, and less capable.

However you feel about higher education, I think its undeniable that students using chatgtp is to their detriment. And by extension a detriment to anyone they work with or anyone who has to rely on them for something.
