If you tell Duolingo that you're depressed, it will cancel your lesson. I was just trying to practice my terms for understanding French songs like "Je fume des clopes dans un blockhaus noir parce que je suis déprimé" (I smoke cigarettes in a dark bunker because I'm depressed).

I have the same problem at my house, but fortunately my bearded dragon also suffers when it's below 65 so I argue on his behalf.

I think Duolingo needs to modify their algorithm to assume a user is trying to use a relevant word based on the context of the conversation. I tried to say "violet," but Duolingo interpreted it as "violer" i.e. violence and shut down the conversation. But Duolingo asked me if I like violet lamps!

This is a fascinating article about how microplastics were present in caddisfly larva casings from the 70's, but I also love the Dutch scientist's crazy hair and the row of owls behind him.

I really need to work on my pronunciation. I thought I said "I like to cook omelettes because I have a big kitchen," but the AI chatbot interpreted it as "I like to cook men because I have a big kitchen."

It's nice that he's so optimistic, but this seems crazy among the articles today where the executive branch is openly ignoring judicial decisions.
