In these uncertain times it’s a comfort to know I can always count on the absolute stranglehold Lifetouch has on school pictures. After all these years, it’s still one take and hope for the best, suckers.

Does anyone else add their loved one’s location to their weather app? I suppose it’s nice to know, and helps me feel connected via someone else’s rainy or sunny skies.

This Fourth of July, I am taking a moment to reflect. Things are hard right now. They are probably going to get worse before they get better.
But I love our country — and when you love something, you fight for it. Together, we will continue to fight for the ideals of our nation.

Our daughter receives Utah Medicaid through the Medically Complex Children’s Waiver. We’d be bankrupt w/out it. To keep it, we must submit a report every month and a multi-page, handwritten application every year. I can barely keep up. It’s built to be hard, and it’s going to get so much harder 😔

New research from MIT found that those who used ChatGPT can’t remember any of the content of their essays.
Key takeaway: the product doesn’t suffer, but the process does. And when it comes to essays, the process *is* how they learn.
