As promised, here are the slides I shared with students to convince them to NOT use chatGPT and other artificial stupidity.
TL;DR? AI is evil, unsustainable and stupid, and I'd much rather they use their own brains, make their own mistakes, and actually learn something. 🪄

Americans should realize - whatever the US State is willing to do Palestinians, it is willing and actively doing to you.
Not as blatantly or violently… yet.

Think the past will protect Australia from Trump’s future? Think again
One of the very few things about our relationship with the US that actually makes us safer is collapsing in real time. We need answers, and quickly.

Corporate lobbyists can cheaply access politicians in private, while peaceful public protestors face harsh penalties.

F*ck me it is very easy to give into despair at the moment. Which is when I fall back on some more of my Oma's advice - when all seems lost, keep going just to spite those you fight against.

Besides the other millions of things wrong with this bullshit:
No fetus produces reproductive cells at conception. Androgens, chromosomes, and many other chemical and hormonal factors that can influence sex are not yet present (which is why we are all considered female at conception)

Robert Eggers really messed up with Nosferatu. Turning a movie that deals with the horrors of war and death into a one about womens' sexual repression is a feat he just could not pull off (pun intended).
Disappointing.

Remember when Climate Protesters threw paint over (the glass covering) a painting to protest oil companies, and the internet had a bitch about protecting art and blah blah blah?
Weird how those people were quiet when actual fire was breaching the land of an art gallery museum in #SoCalfires.

Meta literally created a LGBTQ exception for calling someone mentally ill as an insult. You can't do it for any other group except LGBTQ people.

Can someone explain to me how the govt can get away with taxing students more than oil and gas companies who make millions in destroying our home and stealing our resources?
For decades, Australia has failed to collect enough income from our mineral and fossil fuel resources.
We’re still collecting more on HECS than from the PRRT, our super-profits tax on oil and gas. (Hint: it doesn’t work).
Successive governments have failed the next generations. This needs fixing.

Accused by a whistleblower of covering up an oil spill that killed dolphins and sea snakes, Santos get fined just $10k 🤯
Santos spends up to $US3.3m per year on a private jet for their executives so I don’t think AUD10k is going to hurt them.

A federal court has ruled that Florida can detransition inmates.
Some trans inmates are having estrogen pulled, hair shorn, and put through state-run conversion therapy.
This is the cruelty of abandoning incarcerated trans people.

Incarcerated transgender people were a major topic of debate in the 2024 elections. Now, a judge ruling on a Florida policy shows how cruel abandoning trans people in prison can be.

The past decade of successive governments sweeping Adani's scandals under the carpet has made at least one thing clear.
There is a "critical lack of integrity in Australian public and private institutions."
