disregard | verb | to pay no attention to : treat as unworthy of regard or notice

We are going to savor this one. Our client, Kilmar Abrego Garcia, is freed of these outrageous, vindictive charges. It’s a good day.

just a nightmare

evil millionaire well known for signing teenagers to exploitative comments laughing in the face of new grads, the majority of whom will never make a fraction of the money he has made.... disgusting and incapable of reading a room

“A.I. is rewriting production as we sit here… deal with it. Like I said, it’s a tool… hear me now or pay me later.” Scott Borchetta, a Nashville record label executive, gets booed by MTSU grads when he brings up A.I.

yet another amazing AI policy i want to incorporate

Boycott Barnes and Noble. Loudly. Right fucking now. www.independent.co.uk/arts-enterta...

With its new AI-based "search," Google is literally killing the infrastructure that its entire business is built on. Instead of linking people to the web, it will lock users into an "interactive" mode that slorps up data what is rapidly becoming the now-neglected and unvisited web. (1/3)

where were we again? oh yes, the pit of despair

i'm not feeling great about the future of truth

performative international traveler (excited for passport stamps) vs the digital scan things

this feels like a threat

i went on a fool's errand and everyone there knew you

logging in to my student loans but thankfully i have a little jam jar of wine and frozen raspberries to provide emotional support

Thousands are marching in Selma calling for a full restoration of the voting rights act.

Found this post on reddit and the last bit nails it: “Please don't remember her for the horrific end to her life. Remember her for who she was, a true blessing. To everyone around her.”

What a great mail day! So excited to finally have a my own copy of Survival at Treblinka. Congratulations @chadgibbs101.bsky.social!

tremendously productive, archive day!

everything old is new again.... this is from a neo-nazi magazine from 1978....

taking like fifteen books back to the library is hard but it's even harder when you have "joints don't like to stay in place" disorder

Even in higher ed. I had to fight to turn off a canvas ‘function’ that gave gAI ‘overviews’ of my discussion prompts. 🙃 How is a gAI summary of a college discussion prompt ‘boosting student outcomes’. It’s fucking not. It’s just making a few people rich on the backs of our labor.

took two days (mostly) off and now it's time to go to the archives and prepare for my conference presentation!!! eek!

Historical research does not need to be done faster or in greater volume for any social or intellectual purpose whatever; if anything, it needs to be done more slowly and deliberately than at present, by people allowed the training, time, space, and resources to do it that way.

semester: ✅ women's hockey playoffs: on gonna clock out for at least 24hrs amen

Humanities are absurdly cheap. Investing in them is an equivalent of buying momentum stock. Best bang for your buck.

Today is the first Mother’s Day that this sweet boy and his siblings are without their mom. Never forget the cruelty of ICE. 🦋🌺

she wanted to pretend that she did love me tucking her in.... she is a bad liar

TENNESSEE — If you want to see which district you live in now that @GovBillLee & the Republicans carved up Memphis to drown the Black vote out with white power (while pretending they didn’t) go here: sos.tn.gov/announcement...

the kids are alright :,)

Excited to live in a country where you can mail someone a handgun but not an abortion pill

girl me too

anyone else's cats squint and judge you becuase you won't listen to them? maggie was hitting this look the other night because i wouldn't let her play in the living room (it was way past bed time)

I recommned Firefox

she doesnt even have emails to address or papers to write.... slacker

maggie woke me up an hour early just to yell until she was allowed to go sleep in the living room

don think it's a good omen if the train i'm catching to the race watch party is delayed bc of a car accident down line.... i'm just trying to forza the ferrari okay

hot take: women are less likely to use AI because we’re quick to clock flattery as a tool of manipulation

Folks who live in cities and large metro areas just don’t understand how precarious internet access still is in most of the country. There are no lines to the farm I live on so we use a hotspot. The only other option is starlink (which, fuck no). Today I can barely load an email… so can’t grade. 😑

hockey is back on amen (ferrari disappointed me yet again today)

keeping me company while i work today! i promise she is actually really happy

grad school is like i'm watching nhl playoffs as stress relief (it's very stressful and my bracket is ruined) while i put in students grades and procrastinate writing my final papers
