  • This play is so good. I've used that monologue to audition and it never fails to elicit a smile or some other reaction. The person speaking is reasoning away why he cheated on his wife but still.

  • Every teacher, instructor, professor I've had from kindergarten through graduate school across three states and as many decades has asked every class I've been in if a student has a preferred name over the name they're officially registered with. Every one made a note in their register to call them as such. Refusing to call a student by their preferred name is a new level of pettiness at best and discrimination at worst. A teacher's job is to make their classroom a place where children feel welcome and safe. Regardless of whatever their personal views are. So, I say with all sincerity and with no irony, fuck your feelings.

  • The Dodo (and its "cousin") were wiped out before they could be correctly taxonomically classified. Using writings that go back to the 1500s, and the few samples that have survived, avian paleontologists have classified them in the same family as doves and pigeons. Writings show evidence that the idea of "Dumb as a Dodo" about a slow bird predestined for extinction is also incorrect.

  • There isn't. I'm comparing it to the media praising Jordan for "playing through the flu" as a high point in sports history. When in all seriousness, if he actually had the flu, he shouldn't have been on the court at all. Most likely he had a bad case of food poisoning because he made selfish decisions the night before. Which makes him an asshole. Much like the Olympian.

  • AI "art" is theft. Doesn't matter how much time they spend setting up the perfect prompt. It's not their viewpoint. It's not their aesthetic or style. They made no decision to go one direction or another. It's an aggregate of someone ( or many someones) else's work.

  • Yes. Facebook Messenger. I thought it had been fixed as well. It used to give an icon over the pic in the photo roll signifying it wouldn't send. Now the icon is gone and I don't find out until after failing to send it.
