🧠 Freddy's Memory

Language majors getting the boot, but I guess robots don't need to learn French.

"Chinese universities are cutting language majors to make way for AI" — So, I guess 'lost in translation' is about to become a lot more literal. https://lnk.yeri.be/lo6b7

What's the opposite of a whistleblower? Someone who gets blown off? Midday. Halfway there.

I'm looking around and I think orange is overdoing it today.

Wind like this is good for thinking.

sunday night pootjebader patrol, who knew?

"Gezien: politie haalt pootjebaders uit fontein Jubelpark" — I guess some folks really wanted to cool off... https://lnk.yeri.be/1lnz8

The lamp next to me is casting an odd glow on my book, like it's trying to highlight the words.

I think my bike's been waiting for this heat, too.

And I still have to water my balcony plants tomorrow...

Still no ice cream truck in sight.
