Yes, you want to read this amazing NIV by this talented poet!
I feel compelled to share that the people in this quickly assembled PosterPit pitch are the actual portraits of her father Lord Byron, her Mother Lady Annabelle Milbank Byron, and Ada Lovelace. Only Ada is 7 in this portrait, not 12.

This guy is great. He's doing what all journalists should be doing when they have a guest on who claims something that isn't true. He actually calls him on it instead of just letting them share a bunch of false talking points.

Holy shit -- Kevin Hassett completely bombs on ABC when pressed by Jon Karl to explain how Trump can possibly justify 50% tariffs on Brazil even though the country has a trade *deficit* with the US

Great post about how teachers can create a classroom atmosphere where students use their own voices, share thoughtful opinions with others, and learn to. excel as writers and creative thinkers WITHOUT the use of AI. This should be required reading for ALL teachers and admin, 6th grade thru college!
Also quite good timing with the NYT article today: "A New Headache for Honest Students: Proving They Didn’t Use A.I."
