Celebrating 100 Years of Commonweal: The Legacy of Commonweal Catholics
The Legacy of the Interchurch Center and Commonweal Catholics In the heart of Morningside Heights, a vibrant neighborhood of Manhattan that is home to Columbia University, stands a striking 19-story limestone tower affectionately dubbed by some as the “God box.” This notable structure, officially known as the Interchurch Center, opened its doors in 1960 and has since become a symbol of the…

AI-curated art:
In the flickering candlelight, a girl hunches over ancient tomes, her fingers tracing faded ink on parchment. Nearby, a boy draws his bow across taut violin strings, the melancholy notes echoing through shadowed halls. Smoke curls lazily in a dimly lit jazz club, where patrons in tweed and velvet sip amber whiskey, lost in the hypnotic rhythm of a mournful saxophone. Leather-bound books line mahogany shelves, their spines whispering secrets of forgotten lore. A chessboard sits abandoned, its ebony and ivory pieces frozen in eternal struggle, while an antique typewriter awaits inspiration, its keys stained with the fingerprints of aspiring poets.

"I don't trust Gale!" "Gale is the next Anders/Solas!!"
Bitch, have you ever thought that maybe Gale is a bit more like Merrill???
#both are pure of heart#both strive in intellectual curiosity#both are ambitious in their intellectual pursuits to the point of teetering on dangerous#and depending on choices begin to air more cautiously once warned of the danger they may pose to themselves in getting what they want#theyre also both my type#so theres that#sorry for bringing this up again ive found my way on the wrong side of tiktok#namely gale hate tiktok???#and its like ????#bg3#baldur's gate#baldurs gate 3#baldurs gate#baldur's gate 3#dragon age#da2#dragon age 2#da#bg3 gale#gale of waterdeep#da merrill#da2 merrill#merrill#theyre not exactly the same far from it#but they have more in common than gale with anders or solas

Would anyone want more Spanish-learning posts from me? I keep a Spanish language notebook where I keep notes just for my own reference (including all my notes from class). Depending on how diligently I'm watching a show, I'll try to compile vocabulary lists like the one above, which is basically new (to me) words I've picked up. This list encompasses Season 1 of the Desperate Housewives. It seems like more people are either using Duolingo, or have some increased interest in learning a second language so I figure it might be helpful. Let me know!
#if anyone does want me to post more of this I will try to write more legibly#i find it's also helpful for my note taking to write the word in the sentence i first heard it used in#I can look at a word and remember where I first heard it from my own notes#but for the sake of others reading/learning from my notes#I can write more of the words in sentences#it will probably be useful for me to review after more time passes#and I will probably forget the origin#spanish#learning spanish#spanish vocabulary#also summer is basically my time for seasonal depression because there are no mushrooms and i hate the heat and i dont have air conditionin#so I always need to distract myself with non mushroom intellectual pursuits

“I may have actually succeeded in getting caught up again. As I predicted, the ADHD meds really ARE good for emergencies.”
“Can’t wait to go nuts this weekend, but for now I’m gonna see how far ahead I can get. I need to be able to take breaks without feeling guilty, and this is the only way I can do it.”
“It sure stinks having to use up all this extra brain-behaving energy on homework though.” 😞

my hill to die on and rock to throw is truly the mischaracterization in shipfic for haikaveh and ratiorine, SPECIFICALLY for between kaveh and aventurine
#full disclaimer everyone can write what they want and fanfic does not need to be in characters#this is MY hill MY complaint#i see kaveh's characterization get tossed on aventurine ... so... so much#they are such different characters so it is just like?? baffling#we see an emotionally damaged hyv blonde and they get butchered lmao#kaveh IS canonically soppy pathetic tender hearted and WILDLY insecure and projects and copes with it poorly#aventurine is ... just not that LMAO#one) you cannot separate aventurine's character and the way he interacts with the world without acknowledging that he is the last avgin#and the way he plays into the stereotypes of his people to his advantage (while also being hurt by this in the process) is COOORE#how he externalizes his motiviations and 'helps' others is so like#blatantly not altruistic#whereas kaveh is#i could make a pie chart of these two and the middle part would be a sliver of 'blonde' 'traumatized'#and that's IT#this is not even touching on alhaitham and dr ratio being given the same dom top characterization when the two#ARE INTELLECTUALS however alhaitham is ... canonically self-serving and an individualist to a fault lmao#whereas RATTTIO is like. more scathing perhaps. or at least equally. ISSS ACTUALLY in the pursuit of helping the whole... for the sake of i#it is less about like... self serving and rather more of a collectivist goal

"i like to packbond with everything" is um. a really fucking concerning statement to make when discussing AI, especially the question of if AI can reach sentience. that really should be the very first alarm bell you learn to watch for when you get into studying AI 😬
#i never formally went into AI research due to a mixture of disdain for the majority of commercial AI products + undergrad almost killing me#but ive kept up more or less with where things are at and like#a) we are still using a statistical model#b) we still dont understand how the brain utilizes its heuristics to switch between them#which is first of all the main failure of AI to generalize (or even just not hyper specialize)#when you compare it to the human brain like#the brain has all kinds of weird statistical models (approximately) right#these are heuristics#just ways of determining is thing x#we can more or less do this task with AI!#the PROBLEM is that the brain then can determine Which Heuristic Is Most Appropriate (more or less)#we have no fucking clue how it does that#or really how the feedback loop of learning actually works for meat#the statistical model was sort of our first/most popular attempt to try simulating a feedback learning loop in the brain#and like. mixed results! again! AI can't generalize and we dont even know how the brain works properly#so my personal opinion is that we cannot simulate the human brain any better with current approaches to the problem#and like. if we cant even simulate the bare bones functionality of the brain.#how the everliving fuck do you think it can simulate thought or existence?#we dont know how that works either but like its clearly generated by SOMETHING in the brains functionality#without that you got no hope of a sentient computer#flat out. it isnt happening.#what we DO know though is that the human brain is an anthropomorphizing machine#it can interpret anything as alive or humanlike#we know however this is a fucking trap in regards to intellectual pursuits#ergo: talking about pack bonding and AI study in the same breath?#you are victim to one of the human brain's fondest delusions and it will hold you back from truly studying anything on the topic#yelling at the void

Honestly I think it would do us all well to go back to kinda cringy feminism again for a little bit idk cause I think maybe for some people the discourse somehow circled back around to supporting sexism just rebranded or whatever so its more aesthetic
#personal#instead of progressing the discourse into idk more inclusion of women of color and trans women#it went in the direction of like glorifying women being stupid and romanticizing beauty standarts#also weird centering of men all over again in feminism and in general for some reason#remember in the early 2010s when emma watson was like obliterated for that 'he for she' campaign#because it prioritized men in feminist discourse and then thats the exact direction where things went later on (and where it is currently)#people care more abt like 'haha this is my golden retriever bf he drinks respect women juice!' than about actual women speaking abt feminis#like being a feminist isnt about social change and women prioritizing each other its abt how dudes are hot when they do the bare minimum!#also have you noticed the rise in lesbophobia both in the sense of persecution of lesbians themselves#and of lesbians relationships and culture which other wlw are also part of (its giving lavender menace)#and also remember how we had the me too movement and then immediately after#everyone still fell for a smear campaing against a victim of domestic abuse?#anyway i would really love to get back to basics of like women should support each other!#and beauty standarts overwhelmingly negatively affect women and girls!#and we still need to incentivize girls to seek out intellectual pursuits especially in STEM and leadership roles!#because we continue to be underpresented in those fields and the only way to enact change is to bring our perspectives to those areas#instead of asking politely for guys to throw us a bone!#also stop acting like its cringe to openly and vocally center and prioritize women in every sphere of our lives possible!#and also maybe go back to actively trying to do that! and considering that a good thing!??#because we're the ones who should have our backs most of all?? idk idk#also where are the teeth??#why is everyone so afraid of being angry now???#its like some people circled back to being afraid of being mistaken for man-hating or something#just for pointing out common sense aspects of oppression without adding an asterisk about how men suffer too!#i thought we all knew there is no such thing as reverse sexism!!!#idk!!!#and this isnt me condoning choice feminism many women are evil and actively work against their own interests#or antagonize other women to make themselves feel important such as terfs etc#but idk its like everyone internalized that 'well women can suck too' so hard that its become like#'*most* women suck and we dont even have to keep trying to empathize and prioritize each other and our issues anymore'
