It was truly an honor to spend the final Sunday morning of this long campaign at Harlem's First Corinthian Baptist Church. My deepest thanks to Pastor Walrond, First Lady Rev. Dr. Lakeesha Walrond and the entire congregation for the opportunity and welcome.

Your Cherokee words for today. The top word is English followed by how it is written in the Cherokee language followed by how it is spelled in English then how to pronounce it phonetically. One day in the old times when we could still talk with other creatures, while some children were playing

Democrats are in DC working to lower costs, cancel the cuts, and save health care. Where are congressional Republicans? It’s the day before a government shutdown... and they’re on vacation.

Anyone claiming to be for working class solidarity while also trying to get you to use “AI” is full of shit.

Put less intelligently, the objection to the so-called AI boom is not about the technology being shitty (although it is). It’s about the shitty people who are using their shit technology to treat other people like shit.

Bruuuuuuuuuuuhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

This is excellent. Highly recommend as a course reading across the humanities AND the sciences. #academicsky

Do you think if I told my professors it’s playoff season that they give me extra time on assignments?

It might become the largest GoFundMe account in history….. #bluesky

Given up on dating apps. Time to find a muscular woman at the gym and ask her to teach me to lift while telling her she’s so strong and giggling

First time doing a printed photography project

The only thing shocking right now is that not a single person in the entire world is stopping *anything* Fucking incredible

Why does she look like Peter Serafinowicz?

What up I’m Jared I’m 19 and I never fucking learned how to read

I find group work very destabilizing. People not being able to work on a schedule and constantly being behind makes me lose patience. I unfortunately learned last semester to put the phone down when im feeling frustrated with my groups laissez faire attitude.

Performative student today. In class physically but mentally checked the fuck out.

😭

You know things are rough when the AAUP's advice on how to use social media is just "set all your accounts to private."

There are now 5 HBCUs on lockdown, also a middle and high school in Boulder, and (what seems to be a fake) bomb threat against the DNC. The VOT Chapter at Hampton is safe, but I feel so terrible for all the students dealing with this today.

Here are some things that Charlie Kirk said in his life. The man is dead, and so it only seems fair to share his legacy by cataloguing the values he spread while alive.

yeah im not leaving the house today

The worst thing about higher ed is the people who have to let you know they are smarter than you. The most annoying version of this is the person who thinks that explaining things really slowly to you is a kind and generous offer to any and all. I promise if I get a PhD, I will still be normal (1/2)

who could have possibly done this

Who dat

There are only a few of us on campus who are in apposition of AI. I don’t care if it “makes the research process more efficient”. At what point do we realize unnecessary “progress” has a price! I can’t believe professors are promoting chat gpt for research purposes. #antiai

Fun little gallery opening last night

We are cooked I fear. My favorite professor just went on a rant how helpful chatgpt is in her research. And how to complements her on her research and writing 💀 Idk how someone who does land acknowledgments can support something that is actively harming communities
