That's awesome! I don't remember any non-philosophy folks being in my logic classes, but I bet that makes for a fun class dynamic :)

Dudes not doing dumb stunts is a recession indicator.

Oh wow, it's funny I heard about the news from your post lol (I'm a former Mormon). This is actually a huge deal, women were set up to go on missions later as a way to pressure them to get married young (i.e. pre-mission-age).

Because of so-called AI we're past the old discourse of concern about online misinformation, but back when I worked at a rec center I'd find kids watching videos about how Jackson wasn't dead or footage of his "ghost."
