Hot take but listening to an audiobook is not reading and it’s actually insane to think otherwise

@bentleyliz2 Completely. My mom/extended family is Catholic! But they systematically exclude women from positions of power on the basis of gender! They are explictly NEVER changing that! There is wide-scale child abuse and rape as a result.

@LeeMcClymont @eugenejohnson_ I went to a college with a strong honor code and was allowed to have my phone with me (and listen to music using headphones! and leave the classroom!) during exams. I think its a question of culture and I am sad to see that rampant use of AI has made even my alma mater change.

@eugenejohnson_ Why do students havs phones in an exam? Sounds like the invigilation are also lazy and don't care about exam integrity.

I had four students take pics of my exam and upload them to ChatGPT while I was in the room. Lol. I gave the students a study guide for the final on the first day of class. Many students are lazy and don’t care. Cheating is rampant. AI only emboldens them.

@prettycritical I think that makes a lot of sense! I was just at a conference and was chatting with someone who did a survey of students at her uni and their attitudes towards AI and was surprised to find that most of them are suspicious/don't trust it. Why use it in then? As you say...

ya, i feel like it’s time for us to get really honest. most students using AI to do all their work do it b/c they’re lazy. they’re not secret scholars just juggling a lot of responsibilities or disillusioned by an emphasis on getting a job rather than learning. they don’t care🤷🏾‍♀️

@ML_Singleton Is being gay just a matter of not finding a specific woman "exciting" in your mind? Better call up my gay sister and tell her that the only problem is she just hasn't committed herself to finding a man exciting enough to maintain an indefinite sexual relationship with him.

@aemiouly What do you tell men who have been married for 14 years and no longer find their wives exciting?

@ML_Singleton He talked about needing to abuse substances to maintain a relationship with his wife, who by nature of her gender he was unable to be authentically attracted to. No woman should be stuck in a relationship with someone who is a gay. It's just sad he couldn't figure it out sooner.

@aemiouly He was married to this woman for 14 years! Presumably he wasn’t entirely repulsed by and unable to achieve orgasms with a woman. This is just adultery. I don’t have any more compassion for this guy than the men leaving their wives for younger, hotter women.

@toon_mikwee people with adhd read books and go to libraries. Finding books you are interested in and navigating the perception of pressure are skills that can be developed.

@aemiouly I didn’t do that because I wasn’t very interested in the books at the school library, plus I don’t like the pressure pf borrowing books, plus I have ADHD

This is legitimately insane. Banning cell phones in schools might turn out to be the best thing we’ve done for our kids in a generation.

One year into cell phone bans, Dallas schools see 24% increase in library book checkouts. 👏👏👏 "Public school districts in Texas are almost one school year into the first statewide cellphone ban, and a North Texas school district is seeing positive impacts. Dallas ISD officials said that, district-wide, they have seen a significant increase in library book checkouts, which they largely attribute to students no longer having cellphones with them during the school day. "I started hearing, 'Oh, I'm so bored. I can't get on my phone after I do my work or during lunchtime,'" Hillcrest High School librarian Nina Canales said. "Once they lock into these stories, they don't seem to care about their phones at all." From the first day of school to March 31, 2026, the district reported an increase of more than 200,000 additional books checked out compared to the previous year. A look at the library checkouts for the previous year: 2025-2026 Total Circulation (1st day of school to March 31, 2026) – 1,084,837 2024-2025 Total circulation (1st day of school to March 31, 2025) – 872,430 Total library book checkout increase: 24.35% At Dallas ISD's Hillcrest High, students are following this trend. Canales said there were roughly 500 books checked out in the first nine weeks of the 2024-2025 school year. This school year, that number spiked to about 1,800 books. "That floored me," Canales said. "I had to re-do the report again because I was like, 'What, are you kidding me?'" Students felt the impact too. "Now that I'm busy with a bunch of work and college, I don't find myself missing my phone that much, even at home," said Yamilet Jimenez, 9th grader." By @laceybeasnews. @JonHaidt @safe_screens

@YIMBYLAND How will this affect autistic students? I remember my experience in school, being on Discord during recess was the one thing that made me feel seen by somebody.

@seanbamforth @blz314 @YIMBYLAND im just a librarian, but the good that results from being a regular library user and checking out/reading more books (like...being a more well-rounded, interesting, empathetic person) isn't always something that can/needs to be measured in standardized test scores.

@bentleyliz2 Totally. I think this is an area where needs based assessment would make sense. I just don't want us (culturally etc) to equivocate "senior" with "wealthy" because that just isn't the case for most seniors, they continue to be a vulnerable group.

@aemiouly a gen that is hoarding significant wealth. if we cut it off based on age we would essentially handicap our economy.

treating boomers as "seniors" the same way we treated the silent gen makes no fucking sense. my dad is 70 and very much a senior who just started collecting his social security and is still working full time by choice. should he not have to pay taxes?
Ashley Schendel@ashleyschendel

@d2fl I honestly don’t think seniors should have to pay for it. I can take anyone younger having to pay for it, but not the seniors.

@watchkeep "One of these online conversations ended up being with a minor…but it was never a minor…it was a police officer. The sting went down exactly like you would imagine on T.V." Stunning use of the passive voice.
