What in the world?! I shared one of my passion projects with my new English teacher, and the response I got back was just… bizarre?? It feels so robotic, like something an AI would generate. Please tell me I’m not imagining this—she definitely doesn’t write like that. Honestly, her assignments […]

Someone got caught with a BuzzBall. So, when class started, we had to switch to a different classroom because our teacher wasn’t at school yet. While we were waiting, two staff members entered the room we were leaving and noticed something in the trash—a BuzzBall can. They asked a couple […]

Why is there so much rudeness in this community?
