Infographic titled "AI Isn't a Ticket To an A," explaining how chatbots work, what the data show about the prevalence of these technologies and how they're used, what we know about the quality of their output, and what we know about the impact that frequent use of these technologies has on their users and on content creators, low-wage workers, and the environment.

For their first project, my Kids and Society students have to create an infographic clarifying a common misconception about "kids these days." I'd prefer that they not use AI to create their projects, so I made my own infographic explaining why : )

Reminder that a short comment is still better than no comment if you aren't sure what to say! If you're totally stumped you can bring up some of the points mentioned in the linked article. Ecosystems like these can't just be replanted later!!

BLM Announces Plan to Fell Oregon's Last Great Forests One billion board feet per year... 30 days to make your voice heard.

You only have a short time to comment. They are trying to destroy our forests to enrich a few logging company executives and the politicians they’ve paid off.

Literally most of the people who made an effort to reskeet are Black people.

Y'all really don't wanna make space for Black folks, huh?

REBEKA NEEDS TO GET TO at least 23% on this goal to cover rent & their PET scan. TODAY.

No movement for DAYS.

How far back in time can you understand English? An experiment in language change

If you liked this experiment, I published a full piece today in the same vein: a text that gets 100 years older with every section, from a modern blog post to a medieval chronicle.

It's a single story spanning 1000 years of English. See how far you get.

Like many of the @resist.bot writers here on BSKY, I don’t write these just for me.

Engagement with our elected leaders is crucial right now. Calling is best, but amplify the why…

If a thousand people were yelling at your staff each day, you’d pay attention. Join in.

The New School Cancelled Their Class on Global Soccer and World Politics. We Are Going To Teach it Anyway. When institutions abandon critical thinking, we build our own classrooms.

NEW:

One of the most progressive institutions in the U.S., The New School, has begun destroying its humanities departments.

They have cancelled one of their most popular classes, "Global Soccer and World Politics."

We are going to teach it anyway.

Dear Ms. Wolfe,
Petitioner-Appellee RΓΌmeysa Γ–ztΓΌrk submits this Rule 28(j) letter to advise the Court that on January 29, 2026, the immigration court held that the Department of Homeland Security had not met its burden of proving removability, and the immigration court thereby terminated removal proceedings against Ms. Γ–ztΓΌrk.' This development underscores the dangers of the government's interpretation of the Immigration and Nationality Act. Under the government's view, it could punitively detain any noncitizen in retaliation for her speech for many months, so long as it simultaneously institutes removal proceedingsβ€”no matter how unmeritoriousβ€”all without any federal court review of the lawfulness of detention at any time.
To be clear, the termination of Ms. Γ–ztΓΌrk's removal proceedings does not moot her habeas case. (By contrast, as Ms. Γ–ztΓΌrk has argued, this appeal is moot.
Br. 18-20.) Without habeas jurisdiction and the bail order that is currently in place, any government appeal to the Board of Immigration Appeals would again subject Ms. Γ–ztΓΌrk to re-detention. See 8 C.F.R. Β§ 1003.6(a). For that reason, she continues to suffer the threat of continuing "now-or-never" First and Fifth Amendment harms.
Br. in Opp. 55-57.

Reclassifying Social Work Degrees Will Harm Students, Communities, and the Profession

Public comments needed!

The admin wants to define grad programs in many "helping" fields (social work, nursing, teaching, etc) to no longer be "professional" degrees. This would mean major student loan restrictions: only $20,500/year. Tuition alone is often more.

Please comment by March 2!

Done. If easier, can you include this in the same shipment as the earrings and such l bought an hour ish ago? Also if you ever see sterling bangles, especially in smaller sizes, l would buy them. My kid wants to wear them like her cousins but has allergies to the metals etc in ones we get in India

How much are the earrings?

Actually that's also true for any ruby earrings as long as they are on the smaller side. It's for my kid who prefers smaller earrings or studs.

If you find a real ruby ring in a 6 l will buy it.

Why Congress can’t stop talking about Section 230 The internet’s most misunderstood law.

Hey if you hate the loss of journalism ?

You gone have to vote to support 230

If this is repealed it will allow people to be sued into silence by the pedophile billionaires for even mentioning things

Please I am begging you heed my call www.theverge.com/22309566/sec...

Man, everywhere you look lawyers are still flinging themselves into fights. I know some people will disagree about the usefulness of taking shit to court but I think it's important that we're still doing that. We're still behaving as if the law has meaning.
