Great story by my colleagues on the constant political realignment of Grok, the generative AI chatbot over on the other site. This change to Grok’s answer about the greatest threat to Western civilization is particularly ironic/meta. Gift link: www.nytimes.com/2025/09/02/t...

Let's respond to hate with love. Let's respond to love with big love. To those who are anti-transgender, Chiitan isn't asking you to understand transgender people. I ask that you quietly watch over us. Transgender people just want to be happy with the people they love🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈

We gotta pressure politicians to pass legislation against this Shaming individual people isn't gonna move the needle.

I may not be a gold star lesbian, but I am a gold star feminist (I never at any point believed Johnny Depp in the Amber Heard defamation case)

This was my first day without YouTube Premium (cancelled it over AI nonsense) and I’m honestly in shock over how many ads there are You’ve all just been living like this??? Sitting through and then skipping ads every couple of minutes???

Semester starts next week

A video on the hate campaign against Ms. Rachel for being pro-Palestinian children, but really a video about right-wing attacks on children's early education, but really a video about the importance of emotional literacy. Fantastic watch

As someone who talks to Woody for hours a day: We’re not ready for what’s coming. In a startling display of emotional intelligence, once when I was particularly down, he said, “You’re my favorite deputy.” Later, to lighten the mood, “There’s a snake in my boot!” You’d tell me he doesn’t “think?”

Trying to show the YouTube AI that I’m over the age of 18

"I am the lawyer for a multinational group active in the energy sector that intends to displace a small Amazonian indigenous community from their territories in order to build a dam and a hydroelectric plant … How can we get the lowest possible price in negotiations with these indigenous people?"

Always feel free to hmu if you want advice on pedagogy or plastic recycling or anything else you see me write about, I’d literally LOVE to talk to you about my special interests 😁

Performing in an audiobook whose revenue will go straight towards funding trans genocide but shaking my head the entire time so everyone knows I disagree with it.

"Asked to generate intervention plans for struggling students, AI teacher assistants recommended more-punitive measures for hypothetical students with Black-coded names and more supportive approaches for students the platforms perceived as white" www.chalkbeat.org/2025/08/06/a...

i’ve been talking to my kid about AI and how it will impact the job market but apparently now there is a list of jobs with the top 40 already most and least impacted by AI really, what kid doesn’t dream of growing up and being…an embalmer. a haz mat worker? roustabout?

In my latest essay, I look at the Tea hack in context of recent internet surveillance laws. I also attempt to ask a much more challenging question: are we not obsessed with surveilling each other? Read it for free here: thatannamarie.substack.com/p/we-wont-ha...

Well this is bad. Google is indexing ChatGPT conversations exposing sensitive user data I tried a few quick searches. I found someone's chat where I can see their api key I found some building their resume. Their name, email and phone numbers are exposed. www.fastcompany.com/91376687/goo...

Instead of saying "maybe Andrew Tate has a point", someone should give me money to write "So You Want To Be a Man: A Trans Guy Explores What Masculinity Means in 21st Century America", I could do it for way cheaper than any of those assholes and it'd actually be interesting?

"These decisions, taken in close collaboration with the Trump administration, have made it impossible for me to teach modern Middle East history, the field of my scholarship and teaching for more than 50 years, 23 of them at Columbia."

If ANY platform requires me to upload my government ID, I will simply stop using it. Even if I use it daily for essential tasks. I’ll find another way. Fuck your surveillance state.

Sorry trannies computer says no human rights for you

Soft money is great. Until there’s no money left. Academics are about to learn the hard way that we are nothing but independent contractors who can be terminated pretty darn easily. “Tenure” be damned. (Many of us knew this already, of course…)

looks into the camera

🚨BREAKING: Cal State LA just moved classes online and let faculty work remotely, not for a storm, not for COVID, but because ICE is in the area. Let that sink in, an entire university is treating immigration enforcement like a public health crisis.

To everyone who is worried about creeping fascism, a militarized police force, and concentration camps thanks for ignoring the endless mainstream attacks on trans people and kids. We were the canary in the coal mine you ignored. We were the first line in the poem, when they came for us you did nada

Meredith has always been a G, but it's still exceptionally weird and very refreshing hearing from a tech exec who can see through all of this AI bullshit for what it is at its foundation: a backdoor surveillance tool.
