My most critical insecurities are also at least 10 years old.

Recruiting Hannah was such an obvious mistake; she’s never going to be able to explain her continued state of not having been murdered. Had they recruited anyone else she would still be under suspicion for, you guessed it, not being murdered. #CelebrityTraitors

This happened to me in a previous job (one day bereavement leave for my grandmother’s funeral declined) and looking back I think it did fundamentally alter how I felt about the place I worked.

Pope Leo XIV
@PontifexOct 2
In this era of artificial intelligence, it is becoming urgent to distinguish human art from what machines produce. There is an ontological difference, even before an aesthetic one, between art and what a machine can generate through statistical calculation based on millions of images created by others. Algorithms lack the spark of humanity. For this reason, the Church wishes to renew an alliance with artists and cultural institutions to safeguard our humanity.

Genuinely one of the funniest things I’ve ever read. I kept screenshotting what I thought would be the best bit, but it kept delivering incredible lines.

I saw an AI generated flyer for a church’s event and while I sympathise with small churches who can’t employ a designer (and is probably staffed by very busy administrator trying their best), I think we need to draw a line at anything which represents the Word of God as nonsense.

Canva Pro is free for non-profits, and although the workflow isn’t as instantaneous as asking chatGPT to spit out a flyer, I guarantee that anyone can create something which looks 100x better than the flyer I just saw (which I won’t be posting in full to not identify the church)
