Do I write with AI? No. I write with the spite I inherited from my disapproving ancestors who keep trying to convince me the profit would be so much easier if I just started a cult already FFS

And THAT is why you don’t fuck with Old Gods Princess Beatrice
According to MSN: One owl forgot its table manners and gave Princess Beatrice’s friend Alice Naylor-Leyland a fright as it took flight while perched on her hand. In this amazing action shot, the owl attacks the posh scene. The thin blond woman is screaming. Hair is going everywhere.  Her dress might go off. The table looks incredible, very tasteful fall decor, 10/10 for style and color scheme.

was talking to friends about an apocalyptic lake with a pH as high as ammonia, temperatures as high as 140°F, where animals are mummified into haunting crystalline statues, & ALSO, is the only place where lots of flamingos breed we all thought I might be reciting an AI hallucination BUT GUESS WHAT

The Phantom of Heilbronn, also referred to as the Woman Without a Face, was a presumed female serial killer whose existence was inferred from DNA evidence found at 40 crime scenes across Austria, France and Germany from 1993 to 2009.

In March 2009, investigators concluded that the supposed serial killer did not exist, and the DNA belonged to a woman who worked at a factory that made the cotton swabs used for collecting DNA samples

If you ever wondered why visible light is those particular wavelengths, it's because life evolved to see in the narrow range where water is transparent

I love doing magic because I only lit one candle
I lit one candle in the window, but because of the way the reflection hit, it makes it look like there’s a second candle burning. I didn’t plan it but it’s cool.

having flashbacks to back when we didn’t have computers in the classroom at all and I had a file folder for every lesson of the entire semester pre-made, with overheads, handouts, lesson plans, and backup plans, kept in a portable filing cabinet in my car I could grab & go teach any lesson any time
A picture of all the handouts I was printing this morning for class. They are mostly on rhetorical analysis and peer review, with a random Isaac Newton thrown in

I am an Associate Professor of Writing! If you want students to learn skills like how to use databases, how to identify primary research gathered according to inductive methodology, how to synthesize it in order to determine gaps, how to analyze and evaluate it? You need to fund the humanities!

I teach my science students how to write comprehensive literature reviews & every semester I meet with them one-on-one to make sure the topics they've chosen are narrow enough they're actually able to find all the existing primary peer-reviewed research in one semester The topics can be surprising!
