For the life of me I can't understand why anyone would pay 800-1200 dollars for a pet when there are shelters full of animals everywhere

Why would I need an AI weather report summarizing what I already can read

I wish when people were creating forms and documentation they'd run them by some nd people because I'm so sick of constantly misunderstanding and filling out things incorrectly because they don't use precise language

Does anyone else get annoyed that they have to wake up in the morning and feed themselves

My students gasped when I said my professors didn't typically have slides. Classes was just them talking + my notebook.
Without revealing your actual age,what's something you remember that if you told a younger person they wouldn't understand?

I still haven't figured out why but I have yet to date someone who isn't obsessed with music. It is the worst. I cannot spend my life suffering with someone who wants to start the day loud.
Do you ever think about the common thread btwn the people that are attracted to you vs what you are attracted to?

Sinners was visually very pretty and was a fine movie but I wasn't obsessed like everyone else was
Speaking of movies… What’s the most hyped movie to you that everyone said was great but once you watched it was trash?

For me: Titanic and Saving Private Ryan

If a packet of ramen is two servings, why are they never selling smaller single serving packets??

I hope Democrats remember midterms are this year. So many seats up for grabs. I also hope if they win they manage to do something with it.

You don’t have to want kids or even enjoy being around them. But it’s also worth unpacking why kids simply existing, learning, or having unmet needs reads as “annoying,” “unlikeable,” or “bad behavior.”

This collective discomfort with noise, need, & vulnerability is why many ADULTS are struggling.

A lot of the things yall call internet words are actually academic terms. You’re just stupid and against learning.

Depends on the meal tbh but scrambled with cheap cheese, over easy, or a fried egg.
I have a Sunday topic I would like to discuss. Eggs.

How do you like your eggs?

Slop merchant doesn't like us calling his merchandise slop. More at 11
Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella says people should move beyond calling AI 'slop'

"We need to get beyond the arguments of slop vs sophistication and develop a new equilibrium ... that accounts for humans being equipped with these new cognitive amplifier tools as we relate to each other"

I tried out this process goal, but only committed to it in the hours before noon. I've read 129 pages since the start of yesterday 😭
Research supports the idea that process goals result in significantly greater performance than performance goals or outcome goals. For example:

Process goal: when you want to reach for your phone, reach for a book instead
Performance goal: read 10 pages a day
Outcome goal: read 52 books this year

Just remembered that this is the first month I have to start paying back my student loans 😔

I'm carrying a few books into the new year, but the one I expect to finish first is the invisible life of addie larue. Unsure yet if I would recommend it, but it reads easily and I'm guessing will end at a 3-3.5/5.

Anyway, this is the data itself. You can go look for the paper with it:

Process goals had the largest effect on performance (d = 1.36) compared to performance goals (d = 0.44) and outcome goals (d = 0.09). Process goals also had large effects on self-efficacy (d = 1.11)...

Process goal: when you want to reach for your phone, reach for a book instead
Performance goal: read 10 pages a day
Outcome goal: read 52 books this year

Falling asleep reading and missing the new year actually feels like a great way to set the tone for 2026

Was explaining to my brother how trying to be friends with men is never simple bc they take basically any miniscule act of kindness/friendliness as romantic.
