  • One of my strategies is to first ask myself, “Does it matter? How much?” and then “What could I do about it? Do I care enough to do that?”

    Then I act or shrug or medicate or politely interrogate why-incompetent-person-did-incompetent-goddamn-thing based on that.

    Experience: worked a service job for too long, judging an issue’s worth to me is like a reflex now. It takes practice















  • “I never learned or thought about how long my trash will actually insist on existing and polluting my environment. I’m completely ignorant of how incredibly slowly plastic decomposes and how toxic it is for plastic to leach into the lowest parts of the food chain and concentrate on its way up.”

    “AFAIK, because the earth will take care of it somehow - everything turns into dirt when you leave it in the dirt long enough, right?”

    “I’m just sooo ignorant, plastic will just break back up into little plastic fibers and the ocean can recycle it for us, like tree bark or w/e, right?”

    That’s my best, but still invalid, justification. What do I win ::: spoiler spoiler /sarcasm (I hope this spoiler works bc it’s not working on boost) :::







  • I read your comment before I could open the link, and now that I’d read a little past the chat-format part into chapter two, this spawn definitely smells of AI spunk. My nagging feeling reading it was - Iiiii’m pretty sure this author’s never tried to teach before.

    First giveaway for me was the sudden change in artstyles for the “projected slides”. Also, for the first cat pic, why tf is there a bending-protected cord dangling from a wall switch? Tf?

    So many adjectives used too, I bet, to give that futuristic feel, but overused, unnecessary. What the fuck is clear carbon fiber? No really, is that even real? And why do you need to describe people’s desks or seats that way, when it would’ve been more effective to make a picture of the classroom than to detract from the learning material with a mystery virus that took out the professor just to needlessly bring in a sub? Was there going to be some plot twist? Is there a story?

    And who tf thought that starting with binary was a great idea to introduce kids to computers/programming? Who tf thinks they’d convince someone who knows nothing about computers that binary is cool or even immediately useful?

    I scrolled further and saw Darth Vader fighting Luke Skywalker. End rant, or else AI will give me cancer.

    Scam author is trying to scam people with AI generated book.
