Ink Sweat & Tears @inksweatandtears.co.uk · 24/07/2026

'Endings' by Patrick Wright /@arainbowpoet.bsky.social is a dense, juicy, rich poem... not unlike the mushrooms of its subject matter. Read it here: inksweatandtears.co.uk/patrick-wrig... #Poetry #InkSweatandTears #Mushrooms

Text: Endings

i recoil at the abject the never-ending cycle of leaves under loam a seedbed for eggs
or spawn this going on & no space for heaven or things to pause or find reprieve
i protest say how when i’m gone i’d like to rest before the choice to return & go through

With classes underway, I’ve switched from essays to exams. But with the death of the student essay (RIP, slain by ChatGPT), there’s a larger human tragedy: an erosion of critical cognition and the creation of two sharply divided classes of people: those who learn how to think and those who don’t:

The Death of the Student Essay—and the Future of Cognition

One professor's reflections on the end of an era, as AI tools such as ChatGPT have murdered the student essay (RIP). Here's why that threatens the future of human cognition—and how to save ourselves.
