Was subjected to a 30 minute group conversation with a partner about AI use and how it’s a “necessary” tool that you have to be “getting reps with” or else you’re basically “bringing a knife to a gun fight”

ok could you please for a moment imagine i came up with some funny yet charming 'is it HOT in here?? nsfw summer sale!' slogan. thanks

HI SO MY PHONE BROKE and I don't have any income right now so it'd be REALLY great if you could spare a reblog or even commission me!

“I did some research to pronounce this name correctly” = 👍 great! even if the pronunciation was still off (and learning to pronounce a foreign language correctly takes a lot of practice) people generally appreciate it when someone goes the extra mile for accuracy, and honestly, languages are cool

and btw if people give you an alternate pronounciation/ (nick)name to use instead of the native pronounciation, use it. They know people can't pronounce their name right and do not want to deal with 50 different butchered versions of it, they're speaking from experience

I stumbled across a wikipedia article on the name of my former psychologist a while back on a wiki dive about something completely unrelated. And I learned I'd been pronouncing it wrong. So I listened to some guides, and learned to pronounce it (thankfully it was just the last syllable dropped, so it was adding a syllable at the end.) She was so happy I went to the effort to learn, and yes she did correct it slightly. She'd stopped correcting people, and treated it like a nickname, so hearing it was nice.
