Faculty are done with the idea of doing more and more stuff for students -- on top of our stated jobs -- without being paid for it.

And even if we wanted to because it's intrinsically rewarding (sure) our time is maxed out.

How do higher ed administrators not get this.

The internet early days literally felt like magic
I remember going on an IRC board and we were all new to it, like baby horses learning to walk

It was exciting, scary, disruptive.. all the feelings

AI is fucking boring because it's regurgitation of stolen ideas
It doesn't excite me at all

I literally just started watching for the first time last week with a few friends. We finished S1 last night. I thought it was fine. Has great characters + some great jokes but everything else was mid. I was assuming it gets amazing later bc it has such a reputation. Sad to hear it's already peaked.

I literally have nightmares about scenarios like this! I hope he doesn't get under your skin too much and you can go on with your day without his bullshit.

Another standout drive-in memory was going to see the 2nd Pirates of the Caribbean movie with a bunch of my Dairy Queen coworkers. We had people in trunks and hidden under blankets to get them in for free. I remember nothing about the movie but that was a very fun hang.

I keep reminding myself to enjoy what I have because there was no football at all for many months

I'm a HUGE Steelers fan and even I don't believe a Steelers-Browns match-up is primetime worthy, *especially* right now.
