Sorry I was so annoyed I became shittier at my job x2 lmao

Ugh I've been so out of the loop I didn't know about these new grifts from the usual suspects. I really shouldn't be surprised, and yet . . .
You know what, no, I will not be "upskilling" by becoming shittier at my job using environmentally destructive technology built on stolen work and made by some of the worst people on the planet + literally being used to kill children already just to become shittier at my job.
Yeah and literally same goes for any type of editorial work tbh!
God I'd be so pissed off if I paid $$$ for a dev edit (they're not cheap! and for good reason!) and the editor just ran my work through the plagiarism machine, it's not even funny. Authors, ask any prospective editors if and how they use AI in their editorial work! You might be getting ripped off!
Kudos to you for trying. Wish I could say I was surprised by the response. Great times to "not talk about politics"!
Honestly kind of impressed by the mess authors manage to make sometimes tbh... they prob don't even realize half the time π
Just spent thirty (30) min dealing with one (1) reference and trying to make sense of wtf was happening I am actually so mad at myself lmao
Surely more AI is the solution to the world's problems, no? π€
"Wow, I'm just breezing through this MS!" Yes, by not dealing with any of the issues that take more than 5 seconds to fix. Great strategy!!!!! CAN'T WAIT TO TACKLE THEM ALL AT ONCE NOW!
Did that thing where, instead of dealing with them as you go, you leave all the thorny issues in a MS for later. I am now done going through the MS once and have about 70 "uh oh, deal with this later" comments to myself. Ask me how present me is feeling about past me. π #AmEditing
Venus in Cancer is such a flawless album, kind of unreal. Also I can't listen to Robbie Basho without cursing chiropractors. iykyk
I feel like the evidence for deadhangs is there, idk abt headstands actually but I just love how they feel
You know you're th*rty when you convince yourself the key to staying relatively healthy is alternating between headstands and deadhangs all day
Literally can't stop doing headstands, they feel so good once you figure them out
dunno if i'm feeling all yanny or all laurel today but def very one of the above ! ! !
Any of my oomfies having to work through the weekend as well bc you took on maybe a little more than you should have? #AmEditing π
As a copyeditor, few things are more impressive to me than bell hooks actually managing to make the styling of her name stick like that. Like everyone knows about it and follows it??? #AmEditing
GOOD MORNING my fellow Iris DeMentoids!

Uhm PerfectIt wasn't always this expensive, was it?! I like the software and all, and wouldn't mind investing in a lifetime license (remember when those were a thing?!), but 115 USD/year for a (quite buggy, honestly) glorified macro set with a more user-friendly interface seems a bit excessive π±
A screenshot of the Polymarket website showing a prediction market titled "Nuclear weapon detonation by...?" under the Geopolitics and Ukraine categories. The market displays three betting options with their current probabilities and "Buy Yes" or "Buy No" prices: "March 31" at 5%, "June 30" at 12%, and "Before 2027" at 22%. The total trading volume shown is over $843,000.
Polymarket has created a betting market on the use of nuclear weapons. Everyone involved in this should be put in prison for life.
(Trying to leave it at that instead of negging by adding how I usually feel about Norwegian films and how rare it is for me to be into a contemporary one especially lol)
I really loved this movie! ππ©°π
I still teach sporadically and I feel it getting worse and worse with every class and me caring less and less about it. I just refuse to spend any mental energy on it, which is wild considering just how much effort I used to put into it.
I keep trying to figure out if there's a way to leverage it into something useful/profitable careerwise when I go back to Spain and the answer is basically no (in fields I'm qualified for and interested in). More people live in Madrid ***than in all of Norway*** lol
Idk Norwegian really bottom of my list if I were to pick a new language to learn as an adult out of interest/pleasure (top of my list while I'm at it: Tagalog and Portuguese)
I exclusively used it as a work language (and I really am proud of the work I've put in and the results, being able to qualify as a teacher and teach and deal with all the admin stuff in Norwegian in just a few years), and I obviously had to learn it to have the sort of life I wanted here, but...
Turns out people are right about what happens when you develop 0 emotional attachment (or in my case, maybe a bit of a negative one) to a language you learn...
