The fallacy that University leaders pushing AI are falling into is thinking that the point of undergraduate research is to find things out. It isn't. What students find out is typically already generally known. The point of undergraduate research is to learn how to find things out.

Yes, I understand, you’ve fiddled with the settings, and that is a reasonably pleasant shade of pink, but it is, fundamentally, when you get right down to it, morning again. How about tomorrow we try something different? Something *new*, something *exciting*. How about we just let night keep going?

I swear some @greenlungband.bsky.social songs are scientifically, perfectly designed to be sung back at you by a transported crowd - WHAT a banger to end an album on, and I cannot WAIT to bellow ‘I’ve always sworn upon the horns’ in December 🤘🤣

I often find, in fact, that the rush to disavow ever having Liked the Bad Thing is counterproductive. it's more useful to sit in the messy nuance of having once deeply loved something that you cannot love the same way now. monsters aren't all immediately apparent. we will all get conned by someone

Alas I cannot listen today as I have the Headache after a fit of the Vapours, but @greenlungband.bsky.social’s new album has the most elaborate and beautifully designed liner notes I’ve ever seen. @slipperyjack.bsky.social has done an absolute Hell of a job 😍

the ADHD 'debate' is so stupid because I haven't gone food shopping for long enough that I have mostly eaten bread for a few days
I don't want to eat bread
Nothing is stopping me from eating anything else aside from my brain
and this is a microcosm of my life
And people think this is a choice??

Spent today volunteering in a community garden rather than hunched over a computer - so like, my lower back still hurts but for better reasons. Now covered in woodchip dust and pleasantly exhausted and guiltily delighted that my gym buddy has cancelled lifting tonight :D

There is an exceptionally large spider in my house. We met two nights ago, awkward roommate overlap in the kitchen, and last night it came and hovered awkwardly in the doorway while I watched tv.
The company’s nice, but I feel a bit more awkward about napping on the sofa on my lunch break.

Honestly I've never watched any Mr Beast content and likely wouldn't recognise him if he came up and smacked me in the face. I *would* get to watch him get arrested, though, which feels - going on vibes - like it's probably overdue.
