Damn! One of the books I had got for the PhD at İstanbul Uni, there’s a typo on the spine, the one jutting out, should be Avrupa Mektupları, which it is in the cover and all.

What kind of publishing house does that? Not even bootlegs do that kind of thing…

Well, couldn’t get leek conveniently, so did peas instead, and some avocado toast while that was cooking, as a snack.

Actually the first time I used avocado myself, somehow it was much better than any avocado toast I ate outside.

No such thing as “AI art” exists, but the perversion of social justice language here is at a level that’s worthy of being displayed in a modern art museum for the ages, as an illustration of how meaningless words are without the social context around them.

What's the business model here? If I were a prompt fondler, why would I use your bullshit web reader, with your possibly-just-a-ChatGPT-thin-client, instead of a fully fledged "AI" thing I am probably already paying thru the nose for?

When will this madness end...

My first day at Boğaziçi after registration and I already made a friend. It's rather impressed by the syllabus I am reading, which is blooming 39 pages long! I too am, and positively so!

Em-dash will be defended. At all costs.

They’ve good views too the pampered nerds

Tho I must say, I don’t have visual proof handy atm, but our Letters building does have them beat on that front, very few contenders among unis around the globe for our place

Newspapers have collectively lost their minds. I live in Istanbul, why tf would I sub to “The Philedelphia Inquirer” just to see one gd headline?! Also I’ve visited this webpage for the first time in my life, what limit?

If you don’t wanna publish on web, just don’t, and waste nobody’s time, ffs

Hey fountain pen bsky, I’ve this Kaweco Sport i used a few years ago, but it then developed this problem of this wooly fuzz appearing on the nib. I used kaweco’s caramel cartridges with it and then tried refilling an empty cartridge with a bunch of inks, all causing this.

It's this sort of thing that really leaves me confused.

I guess today I'm commenting on articles. This one has more comedic value than otherwise. The authors of this could use a class in writing, another class in gender, and also maths given 64% is not really "only 64%" when being compared to ~75%.

So I recently got an Instagram account after resisting it for years because Instagram is crap, for the sole purpose of following a few academic institutions' announcements.

I never posted, never "liked" anything, my account is locked with no followers. And I keep getting this bollocks.
