The rise of deepfake pornography in schools: ‘One girl was so horrified she vomited’
The use of ‘nudify’ apps is becoming more and more prevalent, with hundreds of teachers having seen images created by pupils, often of their peers. The fallout is huge – and growing fast

I appreciate these photos on so many levels, not least of which is that they call into question the knee jerk “you must have imagined it” response.

Maybe someone imagined it once, but dozens of times? Hundreds? What quantity of evidence would convince you to believe fat people the first time?

Student, last name Held, put a book on hold on Wed. I was out Thurs. Put it on the pick-up rack, but they didn't come get it Fri, so I tried to bring it to them in class, but they were out.

So I'm holding Held's hold that was already held.

When you buy into the USPS as a business losing money, you are buying into losing these other public services:

-libraries
-public schools
-fire/EMT/911
-public transportation
-senior services
-public utilities
-roads & infrastructure

And MORE...

Public good costs very little for the benefits.

I've been really good at not getting sick for the past few years, but I blew it this week.

It's mostly just a head cold, but I'm so out of practice my body is like, "What the hell, dude?!?" 😂
