@Sharleen_Browne Also I don't think the wait time for luggage here is bad, but it seems long because we don't have a big walk from the plane, and because immigration is so quick now
@blacksciencegal Going to start putting up templates for students, especially the ones who email like:
"Mam, I can't make the midterm" - zero context, sent from non-UWI email.
Who are you? What class? Which midterm? Why are you making me do detective work on a Tuesday morning?
@exennaych One of mine will eat bread until she bursts. The other one only wants big people food. If it's not on a Bajan Sunday lunch menu, he's not having it.
@gabbypilgrim_ Imagine it's been a long day, and a tiny person quietly crawls into your bed in the middle of the night to cuddle... for you to quickly find out that sweet girl has a diaper blowout, and you're going to have to bathe her, bathe yourself, and wash both sets of sheets.
The issue with people “letting AI do the reading for them” is that a society that does not read is a society that can’t think critically. It can be easily manipulated by authoritarians. When we don’t read we are less informed, more dependent on tech tools, and more compliant.
Seems important that in Fahrenheit 451, books were still “available” in single-paragraph summaries—“read Hamlet in five minutes!”—but the books themselves had been banned for being too difficult. Tech boosters see a warning and think it’s an instruction manual.
