Age yourself by naming an NFL cornerback you grew up watching. I’ll start: Darrelle Revis.

@kelly_o_edwards Why do think people perceive the Catholic Church as worshipping Mary? Do the You think the Catholic church could/should do anything to change this perception?

Respectfully, those who think the Catholic Church worships Mary in place of Christ would do well to consider the Church's actual prayers and see that such is not the case.

@SalmanAjmal3862 They worry that it will take their jobs.

Why do people hate AI ?

@DrNeilStone Trump said that he doesn’t make bad deals.

I wonder if Trump is having second thoughts about this deal when he saw the backlash about how it's a surrender and worse than the Obama deal

@sflorimm I believe Microsoft is cutting back on its AI usage. AI is far more expensive than a person is. The human brain uses energy very efficiently. fortune.com/2026/05/22/mic…

Schools ban AI so students don’t cheat. Employers demand AI so workers don’t fall behind. We are actively punishing 15-year-olds for using the exact tools they need to master to be employable at 22. How long until the traditional education system collapses completely?

@ProfMJCleveland What did it mean to be literate in 1900? Do we still have the same definition?

By 1900, the United States had achieved a 90% literacy rate largely by using McGuffey Readers in one-room schoolhouses.  But, yeah, NYC’s problem is it’s not spending enough money.

Does the Right believe in free speech and freedom of religion? It doesn’t feel like they do sometimes.

@JimSanoBC79 @Truth_matters20 How many passages has the Catholic Church infallibly interpreted? On the others, aren’t Catholics doing the same thing that you say Protestants are doing?

@Truth_matters20 The problem is that many use their opinion to interpret Scripture through a fallible lens vs trusting in Christ's pillar of truth as taught in Scripture.

@miles_commodore Play along

When a family member over 85 years old is telling you a story for the 28th time, should you say something or play along?

Does the Left believe in free speech and freedom of religion? It doesn’t feel like sometimes.

@tommyreamon Most of these players aren’t getting scholarships for athletics. They definitely shouldn’t let the tail wag the dog.

Growing up, it was an unwritten rule that parents didn’t schedule family trips during summer camp and definitely not during the season. Now a kid will disappear to Florida for 2 weeks in the middle of the season. You’re lucky if they even give you a heads up. Most coaches find out through social media. I know times have changed, but sheesh!

@michaelaterndru @learningandtheb @MrZachG You mean they are telling him to make new technology illegal. No one is telling him to make old technology, like pencils, pens, etc. illegal. Thus, generally people want to get rid of technology that was invented after they turned 30, not before they turned 30.

@CorfmanTim @learningandtheb @MrZachG There literally people telling our president to make technology illegal

If you want all technology banned from schools, this post from @MrZachG is worth a read. bit.ly/3QIaHKO You want a sample of Zach's provocativeness? "A book does not love the child reading it.... By every standard the abstinence movement applies to a screen, a book should also be banned. But of course nobody wants to ban books because we all understand that a book can reveal the wonders of the universe."

@thescottbarber Do you have freedom of speech and freedom of religion?

The Government of Canada, and every Canadian citizen, literally paid for a pipeline during those years. You received 4.5 billion dollars. That sounds so difficult getting all those federal dollars. Where is the gratitude towards Canadians?

Does Britain, any European Country, Canada, Australia, or New Zealand guarantee its people freedom of religion and freedom of speech? It is beginning to seem as if these places don’t believe in those two basic rights.

@Ric_RTP @EquineCamper AI is more expensive than humans because our brains are incredibly efficient users of energy.

Microsoft just banned its own engineers from using AI. The tool was literally costing MORE than the humans it was supposed to replace. They lied to you about AI adoption and now the whole narrative is blowing up: Microsoft gave thousands of engineers access to Claude Code six months ago and encouraged them to use it. Engineers loved it and adoption exploded. But then the invoices arrived. Token-based pricing means every query, every code review, every debugging session costs money. At scale across 100,000 engineers, the numbers became so large that Microsoft issued an internal order to cancel nearly all Claude Code licenses by end of June and force everyone onto their own cheaper tool instead. The company that invested $5 billion in Anthropic just told its own people to stop using Anthropic's product because it costs too much. Uber's story is even worse... Their CTO Praveen Neppalli Naga told The Information that the budget he planned for the full year was "blown away already" by April. Uber had rolled out Claude Code in December 2025. By March, 84% of their 5,000 engineers were using it with 70% of all committed code coming from AI systems. Heavy users were burning $500 to $2,000 per month each. Naga himself spent $1,200 in a single two-hour demo session. The company had even built internal leaderboards ranking engineers by how much AI they used. They literally gamified the spending and then ran out of money. Now look at what Nvidia's own VP of applied deep learning Bryan Catanzaro said to Axios last month. Direct quote: "For my team, the cost of compute is far beyond the costs of the employees." This is a VP at the company that SELLS the chips saying that using AI is more expensive than paying humans. Think about what this means for the entire AI narrative. Every CEO on every earnings call for the past two years has said the same thing: AI will make us more efficient, reduce headcount, and cut costs. The stock market rewarded every company that said it. Fired workers, stock goes up. Announced AI adoption, stock goes up. But the actual companies deploying AI at scale are discovering the math doesn't work. The MORE employees use AI, the HIGHER the bill. Goldman Sachs forecasts a 24x increase in token consumption by 2030 as companies adopt AI agents. Gartner just published a report showing that even though individual token prices will drop 90% by 2030, total enterprise AI costs will go UP because agents consume exponentially more tokens per task than basic tools. Meta built an internal dashboard called "Claudeonomics" to track which employees use the most AI. Amazon started pushing engineers to "tokenmaxx," their internal term for consuming as many AI tokens as possible. Both companies are spending hundreds of billions on AI infrastructure this year alone. And Microsoft, the company that bet its entire future on AI, just told 100,000 engineers to stop using the tool they liked best because the per-token bills got out of control. The companies building AI are telling investors it saves money. The companies using AI are finding out it costs more than the humans it was supposed to replace. And even the company that makes the chips just admitted it through its own VP. This is the gap nobody on Wall Street is pricing in. $725 billion in AI infrastructure spending this year across Big Tech. And the first companies to actually deploy these tools at scale are already pulling back because the economics don't work. What do you think?

@QueenMab87 They should try that with their doctor, lawyer, plumber, mechanic, electrician, etc.

I saw someone say that if their tuition pays our bills then a prof’s time isn’t more imp than theirs & while I strongly feel profs need to work to accommodate students schedules treating students as paying clients is one thing ruining colleges. Also we’re exhausted & overworked!
