Fala Gaucho! Posso te mandar DM?
Sometimes I forget that Blue Mockingbirds are a thing. I wish to never forget that again. Any tips?

Help me settle a dispute: would college students these days prefer a 8:40 am or a 5:40pm lecture class? All else being equal

I read it as 🏖️-tropy until i got to the punchline. It didn’t make much sense
Well it finally happenned folks. Just caught my first student assignment where I have a very very strong suspicion it was entirely copy-pasted from ChatGPT 😩

New York City baby
