I’ve seen people responding to this as though either OP is criticizing the child or as a reason to criticize “this generation.” And both of these takes are nonsense. Kids are using ChatGPT this way because this is also how adults are using it, and this is about how it is a dangerously bad tool

🚨time sensitive emergency🚨

My bank account is almost overdrawn, and I need gas to work this weekend & to pay my auto insurance asap.

$160 will get me a full tank ($40) & insurance ($120) but ANYTHING would help. Thank you! 💕 💸

Before I leave the kitchen, even if I’m just passing through, I look at all the stove knobs, sometimes touching them, and saying “Off, off, off”. I’ve been terrified of leaving the stove on and burning the house down, so I remind myself that all is well

Why is there no Richard Scarry Cinematic Universe? No Huckle Cat-centric Busytown hour-long ensemble drama? No Bananas Gorilla origin story limited series? A Sergeant Murphy cop show where he slowly becomes disillusioned with our justice system and becomes a vigilante? Is no streamer brave enough

Here's what's up. Rook is working their ass off, but at delivery. A lot of the trips are paying so little they're not making back the gas money. And now the apartment needs maintenance and isn't habitable. Can we get Rook some food and a couple nights in a hotel while maintenance handles things?

Here's what's going on: I will need a hotel until AC is fixed. It was not a small leak. Tonight I'm trying to clean out my junked up apartment so maintenance & HVAC can even get in. It's a weekend, too, so god only knows how long it's going to take.

Yikes. Bad news for journalists, who used to be able to tell — at a glance — what a recently changed or deleted webpage looked like. This will make it much easier for bad guys to memory hole inconvenient facts online.

Hey everybody who isn't used to seeing very cold temps: If you lose power, remember that the outdoors is now a freezer. It won't matter if it's only for a few hours, but if it lasts long enough that your fridge is in danger of defrosting, put stuff outside instead of throwing it out.

Jfc. This is a stark reminder that if you pass away today, the folks at work will only ask "where are their keys," and "who has the password to their computer." Say no and choose yourself more. I minister to y'all as I minister to myself.

The next time you're feeling deep dark despair, remember to make absolutely certain you eat food and drink water. It for sure won't solve the despair, but it'll definitely keep hunger and dehydration from making it Worse.

Billionaires shouldn't be allowed to exist. Tax them out of existence. They're bad for society, the environment, and democracy. UBI now. Stop wasting your energy and attention on insincere, profiteering muckrakers who exist solely to outrage you for pay. Block the attention vampires and move on.
