Say it after me: Chat GPT is not a search engine. It does not scan the web for information, it just generates statistically likely sentences. You cannot use it a search engine, or as a substitute for searching.

Now. Please never use an LLM for information searches ever again.

So playing Hello Kitty Island Adventure, I’m slowly figuring out things. I try not to look up stuff on the internet unless I’m banging my head against the wall.

So playing Hello Kitty Island Adventure, I do have some complaints. One is the lack of information in-game.

The flowers haven’t popped up yet, but Waddle Dee is ready for when they do.

Working on downsizing the number of AG dolls I have. AG will always have a special place in my heart but I added way too many dolls without selling any, so my max size was went way over what I feel comfortable with.

So started playing Hello Kitty Island Adventure. I don’t dislike it but feel like it’s harder to find the materials needed to craft items? Or is this just how the game is?

Am I the only one who immediately thought “Pokemon Theme Song” when it leaked that next year’s Rhythm Dance is 90s music? It 1) came out in the 90s, 2) it’s high energy, 3) next year marks Pokémon’s 30th anniversary.

It’s a no brainer.

Dean Chemerinsky and other #lawschool deans "speak as legal educators, responsible for training the next generation of lawyers, in condemning any government efforts to punish lawyers or their firms based on the identity of their clients or for their zealous lawful and ethical advocacy."

1990s vs 2020s

Love seeing these franchises still going strong. We have so many trends that come and go. This speaks to their appeal fueling their longevity despite the other changes around us.

A friend included this anti-acknowledgement section on her PhD thesis. She also added the proposition: “Systematic bullying and undermining of girls and women in STEM starts early on and is the reason why they do not stay in science and related fields.”
Absurd we still need to go through this

It’s Peeps season.

Every spring, the Peeps come out of storage to decorate the house. And Yuki, in particular, tends to greet them like long lost friends he hasn’t seen in ages. 😹

(They did not stay on the staircase after the photo was taken, to be clear.)

Now that Build-a-Bear has indicated they are going into friends of the main characters, I’m hoping see Gyudechama and Shakipiyo, because there are very few plush if either, if any.

Totally not excited about Totodile coming back as a starter.

And yeah…Pokémon is probably going to dominate my feed for a bit. I’m in a slump with AG at the moment and don’t feel like doing much with them. Which ebbs and flows for me, so I’m sure I’ll come back to it at some point.

Briefly stopped by the Peeps section in Walmart. My store does not have any of the HK collab, so folks may need to resort to online ordering.

Belle (/Ari)

First Josefina mold doll in ages that I risked buying from far away. I think she looks pretty good and even better after giving her amber eyes and removing those excessive roses on the dress.

🚨BREAKING. From a program officer at the National Science Foundation, a list of keywords that can cause a grant to be pulled. I will be sharing screenshots of these keywords along with a decision tree. Please share widely. This is a crisis for academic freedom & science.
