Alright I’ll bite: what percent of kids do we think will actually look at these as bots as “guides” to augment learning instead of just using them to substitute research/writing? I was a huge dork who loved the library and I would’ve used it to do my homework, not learn…bc that’s how kids think!
Viewing AI chatbots as interactive guides--crafting thoughtful prompts and refining follow-up questions--is absolutely a learning skill. It teaches critical thinking, curiosity, and how to engage with information dynamically. Not a replacement for teachers, but a tool to sharpen how one can learn.

man you've really just gotta hate America and its citizens to cut back on the damn National Park Service. you've gotta have no interest in what makes our country unique and no desire for people to experience it
Bright passionate people who wanted to dedicate their lives to public service were fired in a mass email over the holiday weekend.
This has absolutely nothing to do with efficiency, fraud, waste, or abuse. And your life will be worse because of it.

Saw something rare in tonight's JV game: The officials had an adult male fan REMOVED from the gym. In the JUNIOR VARSITY game. I fully support this and everyone should.

I think this app is healing my brain lol. Someone left a pathetic loser-ly comment on my IG and I just blocked like a normal human being and kept it moving. why did I spend so many minutes of my life engaging with dweebs?

I like Brooks quite a bit and he’s really good in pass pro (and better than Jacobs in that regard) so I have no real issue with it.
Before this week Jacobs was only playing about 60% of third downs. I get that Brooks is a solid back and maybe even better at pass pro than JJ, but what’re your thoughts on that number? Feels like they should focus on having their best 11 on the field more on those critical downs right?
