I saw two tourists at a restaurant together, filming their entire lunch. This included rehearsing entering & sitting with their tray, then filming it - taking different angles of them eating, shots of all their food, then discussing the food. It looked exhausting. AND their food went cold.

There’s a weird attitude similar to the incel ethos with AI. The focus is on results - bench presses, notches on bedposts, chin angle 📐
Instead of any kind of process of discovery of your own voice, finding the right person for you, the right fit, not being offended by rejection, not blaming others

Yeah. I thought everything was normal. I ended up giving up on everything out of fear, everything just ended up laying by the wayside. And just overall getting so afraid to pursue anything I loved, which still affects me badly to this day.

I won stuff for art & drama at my school - neither parent ever asked about it or helped me develop my skills/encouraged it. Ditto kick-boxing which I even started teaching at 15, but again, never got asked about it
V difficult to imagine what it would have felt like to have support as a teenager

I can’t bear to put myself through seasons 10 & 11

I found the whole thing really odd. Style over substance, especially with characters, a lot of broad strokes. Feels like the character is a neurotypical detective cosplaying as an autistic one, rather than anything observed. Ironic given it’s about… observation

If you can’t afford an artist to do your poster for your three-stars-at-best comedy show, then why not assist in burning down the whole art industry and also take down the climate while you’re at it

It’s awful to find out but once you find out you can run away and make friends who are actually friends

Hope you have safe and lovely travels.
I can’t find a portable air filter but I have some worry that it will suck contaminated air… toward me
Feel like a dinky little CO2 monitor might be a perfect thing. Thank you for the insight!!!

Does the CO2 level essentially suggest the level of ventilation / air flow (asking as I was thinking of getting one)

I love that the upkeep is basically similar to a little kitten
Do you have the Bambu Lab A series one?

These prints look phenomenal. I’ve long dreamed of getting a 3D printer
Is the upkeep/filament expensive?

I am more than happy to community-diagnose him and he is incredibly clearly President Autism, albeit privileged-male presenting, but still.

Literally his wife’s Emmys for being in an autistic person’s very successful show are standing right there

One of the reasons I didn’t continue was I was so SO upset by it. I loved it. I loved every minute of teaching. I adored the students. They were all geniuses. But I’m not hardened enough to not internalise what they were going through. & obv I was not paid/supported/offered training to develop it.

True. Some colleagues realised it was a job they couldn’t get sacked from so stay though they’re unsuited.
I maintain exams are very discriminating toward disabled, neurodivergent or kids with anxiety or PMS/PMDD etc. I prefer setting coursework but again that requires a lot of teaching design.

Yeah that support is nowhere. But also: Within faculties there are first people who are great educators but are drained. If I’d continued I would have burned out. But others… are not good & don’t care about anything except the status it gives them. So it isn’t even a question of just funding.

I hate AI. But I also saw these kids, their desperation & fears, confusion about a world not being explained to them properly, as millennials/ Gen X’s are going through an existential crisis of old promises & institutions collapsing. So vilifying Gen Z & Alpha / putting the onus on them is nuts.

To just ban or punish AI use in schools is not the solution - as it targets the kids (& they’d find a way round it). It makes them feel more misunderstood, concerns dismissed.
It requires different pedagogy design that circumvents AI use. Cool. Who will fund it. No one. But the solution lies there.

Is this the faculty’s fault? Also no. They are woefully underfunded. A lot of us were under minimum wage.
Workplace demands also changed. Their application process has become dehumanised.
It is CLEAR no one is rewarding original thinking. Just ticking boxes. Gen Z are responding in kind.

The relationship they have with art is very much identical to a narcissist abuser controlling his victim, making them bend to their whim

Yes it feels like their filters have somehow crystallised some of the absolute worst bits of humanity. I specifically had in mind all the cult-narcissism-delusion enabling sycophancy-on-demand

I think this is one of the really insane issues with ChatGPT - students regard it as an authority. You can’t get them to analyse it, same with stuff teachers say, or the stuff that AAA studios put in their press releases.
There is something really messed up going on.
