my dad died on Thursday night

Sometimes its invisible because the work doesn't produce artifacts folks can see. The time I spend researching for video is one example.

Sometimes its invisible because you make it look so easy they don't understand how hard it was.

A strong statement of resistance to the relentless marketing of "AI" in education spaces. I encourage all educators to have a look and consider signing on:

fyi: [@]itgrrl.bsky.social is no longer me 😢

someone else registered it after I switched to my @itgrrl.com domain handle back in the days before bsky started reserving your original vanilla bsky handle in case you ever needed to revert to it (& I assume also to preserve your skeet history) 🫠

"You wouldn't download a car", ads shown by the MPAA in 2004 in cinemas and as unskippable sections of DVDs, recalled by @itgrrl . I also recall with glee that the *pirated* versions of these DVDS made those ads skippable.#everythingopen #everythingopenallatonce

Open isn’t open if it excludes - and it’s exclusive if it isn’t affordable, isnt accessible, if people don’t have the ability needed to use it. Darn straight @saera Also support your libraries! #EO2025 #EverythingOpen
