As someone who travels frequently I keep a burner phone for this exact reason. 5 telephone numbers saved, no apps downloaded, no social media links, nothing.

And let me tell you, there is nothing more petty and satisfying than pretending to be nervous handing over your phone only for them to waste 48 minutes scrolling through every inch of that phone and finding ✨️nothing✨️ incriminating. 🥰

this happened to a 19 year old US citizen studying in Bulgaria. do yourself a favor and do not leave the country right now under any circumstances. and another reminder: do not under any circumstances give your electronic devices up to anyone who asks or allow your things to be searched without a signed warrant from a judge. you have a right to refuse any search and seizure that is unwarranted. you still have rights. do not comply in advance. they will use it to prosecute you for whatever they can.

It is your sworn duty, when you're in your 30's, to do something every day that would have gotten you viciously bullied in high school.

This may be the worst use of LLMs anyone has attempted, ever. Up there with recognizing mushrooms.

some highlights from my students’ romeo and juliet modern interpretation projects:

- someone made a username for friar laurence with 420 at the end - the same kid who put 69 in romeo’s username like i wouldn’t know what either of those things mean - the girl who added ‘clean’ at the end of all the songs on her juliet playlist like lmao girl i know spotify doesn’t have the clean version - the kid who said romeo and juliet killed each other - the weird dichotomy of kids who put love story on their playlist vs the kids who choose bad blood - the kid who wrote ‘get a room’ as tybalt’s comment on romeo’s couple pic - the kid who said ‘romeo is probably one of those douches who follows a ton of people so they follow him back and then he unfollows all of them’ - the one who legitimately used the word ‘alrighty’ do kids say this in their text messages???? i thought i was the one talking like an elderly person but okay - the one who made romeo’s username ‘montagoose’ - the only kid who acknowledged that posting about your secret relationship on instagram was a bad idea - the girl who wrote that romeo would unironically say ‘#blessed’. she’s right. - the one single solitary girl who wrote mercutio as gay as shakespeare did (she’s also the only one who used mercutio at all which is a tragedy but whatever) - the one who wrote romeo’s insta bio as ‘thus with a kiss i die… LOL RIP ME 😂💀’ - the one who made benvolio’s username benvoliYO

TIL anyone who's going to overwinter in Antarctica has to have had their appendix out. Because removing an appendix that's not causing any trouble just as a precaution is way better than having one that's about to burst when you're on the ass-end of the planet with no way to be rushed to a hospital if shit gets real.
