it's so fucking frustrating to be in college and know everyone uses chatgpt and to be tempted by it constantly while also knowing intellectually that it doesn't work and it's a bad idea. like, i hang out in the library a lot, and i see people using chatgpt on assignments almost every day. and i know it isn't a good way to learn, because it's not really "artificial intelligence" so much as it is an auto text generator. and it gives you wrong information or badly worded sentences all the time. but every week i stare down assignments i don't want to do and i think man. if only i could type this prompt into a text generator and have it done in 10 minutes flat. and i know it wouldn't work. it wouldn't synthesize information from the text the way professors want, it wouldn't know how to answer questions, it just spits out vaguely related words for a couple paragraphs. but knowing my classmates get their work done in 10 minutes flat with it while i fight every ounce of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder in my body is infuriating.

i don't understand the recent "how often do men think of the roman empire" trend. one of the most well-known recent academic and popular historians of the roman empire is a woman, mary beard. why do this? it isn't cute or funny if you think about the implications for more than five seconds

#this is what im SYAING

I was BORN to be asked how often I think about the Roman Empire, but now people are asking what i think about INSTEAD of the Roman Empire. It’s like a bad dream

#this whole trend is so uncomfyyyy

Fair complaint but I’m still in school and I was just so happy about the existence downtown Ventura that I wanted to yell from the rooftops

Yeah college isn’t forever but it’s something small and good and real and as long as I live im never gonna forget running wild on the streets of Southern California with my friends, spending too much money at bars, jazz music, smoking cigarillos, loitering on Main Street, drunk at in n out, sunsets, praying under street lights, got my red coat, talking about metaphysics when the sun gets low, sitting on the side of the fountain and sharing the hookah hose, jazz music, jazz music. I’ll never forget, I swear, I swear
