I was asked yesterday, by a class of future educators, what my advice was to deal with the burnout from constant attacks and challenges anyone working in education faces. It's a complicated issue, obviously, but here is what I said I would tell anyone graduating from college right now:

Someone in one of my discords today commented that “ChatGPT” sounds like “cat, I farted” in French. I am now proposing we call generative AI systems “The Cat Farts machine”. It’s harder to make an argument that a cat farts machine is an important addition to our daily lives.

COVID didn't "turn out fine." Over 1 million people died in just the US. People are still dying. 100s of thousands of people are still dealing with the effects of Long COVID. And the entire country lost its shit and is still unwell. Tariffs will not "turn out fine." Effects will be experienced.
