May-be An Eldritch Abomination @maylafont - Tumblr Blog

Super excited to ragebait my middle schoolers on the second day of school with my presentation on "what is art?" Featuring seven art pieces for us to discuss including bangers such as Number 7A by Jackson Pollock, Comedian by Maurizio Cattelan, and IKB 79 by Yves Klein. The slides just show the art, what it's called (plus artist name and year made) and how much they were sold for, then after asking them a few questions I'll explain the context and importance of them. There's more to the presentation besides "what is art" but from my 4 years experience as a technology teacher I know this will mess with them big time to catch their attention.

Something is missing from the debate over educationally suitable literature

Maybe this next year I can do more sci-fi short stories that I skipped reading with the kids before, there were some fantastic ones with really good messages and themes

(goverment voice) we need to protect the children from pornography so our plan is to remove their eyes so they would never see something so traumatic. if you are against removing children's eyes you are basically a pedophile

today's reason I fucking love the open source community: Ageless Linux, a brand new Debian-based operating system specifically designed to break the law by giving children access to computers that explicitly refuse to track their age.

Me and my wife found a pigeon hiding from the desert heat under our stairs, would only move a little to get out of the way when we were passing it, gave it some water and watched it slowly get more active as it was going to town on the water. We left it with the water and by the time the sun was setting it got the strength to fly off.

My wonderful fiance had me do some physical painting, I think it's a solid first time with acrylic paint

I need to do more art and such, since I'm apparently an art teacher now because my experience as a technology teacher for the past 7 years definitely carries over guys, who needs coding?

JUST A REMINDER THAT THE GOTH SCENE WAS BUILT BY QUEER PEOPLE

Hey anyone notice how google translate is being pretty liberal with their translations as of late? Takin some real liberties to infer tone.

melongifts

ask and ye shall receive: When I write in Japanese I usually also throw it in google translate to double check that I'm not using the wrong kanji by mistake, and two years ago it gave me very dry and literal translations.

I was doing it today and noticed it had a pretty strong voice added to the output

For reference, to give a dry translation I would put: Lately I'm into in Hanafuda. Nobody seems to know anything about it here, so they probably wouldn't understand my brilliant jokes. I guess you guys will never be able to understand "Mister November and the Scary Cave".

I have a fluent friend who is able to check my work for me and give me tips on hitting the correct tone (I was going for a comically casual feeling), so I'm confident that I'm expressing the feeling I'm intending. While Google is also hitting the same emotion, I really don't like knowing that it's assigning tone in the first place.

To check if it was editorializing based on informal grammatical choices, I formal'd up the writing to be more polite and remove any non-standard vocabulary.

I'm just like... what is anyone who is translating what I'm thinking into their own language going to think when a translation app decides that it knows my intended tone? When online communication is already so complicated and nuanced? I'm a non-native so I'm spending ages agonizing over 117 characters, but when I'm chatting in English I'm not being so deliberate. How likely is it that tools that 'naturalize' are going to make choices that don't reflect reality and lead to insulting misunderstandings? I spoke with an English learner just yesterday who thought they were being bullied (they were not, the commenter in question was just excitedly infodumping about sociology) because something was lost in translation, and I wonder if it's because of tools making choices like this. I'm just a luddite I don't trust stuff like this. stinks of ai asking me if it can rerwrite my email in a more quirky style.

Daily reminder that economists are useless hacks who should not be listened to under most if not all circumstances

Next time I have my students read "The Egg" we're definitely discussing death of the author because what do you mean that story wasn't meant to have social commentary
