Crocs. Uggs. Apple. Some people defend them with the same energy others defend democracy. My colleague is passionate about Crocs. Their enthusiasm makes me want to listen and I am not a fan. What is your Crocs? A thing you love that makes people laugh or groan together - and that builds community?

This dramatic headline in The Advertiser caught my eye as I went by: "Evil cook gets 33 years as it is revealed she was born in Adelaide: JUSTICE IS SERVED" (It reads like she doing time because she was from Adelaide not because she served up some toxic mushrooms)

“Over the past 20 years, Paris has undergone a major physical transformation, trading automotive arteries for bike lanes, adding green spaces and eliminating 50,000 parking spaces. Part of the payoff has been invisible — in the air itself.” Leadership, strategy, real action, common sense. #Paris

It's a wet Sunday and so I am doing chores inside. I had time out with a cosy blanket and coffee and watched this vid.

I really dislike this sentiment re: AI impacts on education: If an assignment can be completed by AI then it is clearly just busy work; educators need to create better assignments. Absolutely not true. Just because AI can do something too doesn't mean that doing it doesn't have pedagogical value.
