New on the app, taking it a step at a time.
I just got an email from a former student of mine from 2003 who said my class was the only part of high school that didn’t suck (which made me sad she had such a rough time). And then I ran across this dedication in a book I just picked up.

1) sometimes kids thank you later
2) thanks for helping kids through the rough time they’re all having now

We are slowly witnessing the rise of A.I. How much longer before this goes mainstream?

This is totally insane. They are essentially burning plastic and calling it a “biofuel.” It’s just fuel in another form. 1 out of 4 people who breathe in this poison will get cancer.

This ‘climate-friendly’ fuel comes with an astronomical cancer risk

Almost half of products cleared so far under a new US federal ‘biofuels’ program are not, in fact, biofuels
