I have Covid and moved all my meetings to later this week and the hopes that my face will not feel like it's exploding. This also means I can watch unlimited horror movies and really dig into researching white men with Nazi tattoos. These activities may also be related.

i see cis white people now having the "actually most of us didn't have a nazi edgelord phase and it's weird you think that" convo. who says there's no such thing as collective progress

Actually the modern political landscape is just strewn with people like this who sort of careen through different identities looking for something that makes them feel less hollow, looking for something to believe in

replace the debates with very special episodes of Naked Attraction

ok the actual lesson is that everyone has to campaign in the nude. like the greeks of old

is that a serious question

meanwhile Republicans are rewriting the infrastructure bill to drive billions of taxpayer dollars away from fiber optics and toward Musk's inferior satellite broadband network yet that somehow warrants a tiny fraction of the same press attention

taking suggestions for historic pieces of jewellery we can use to replace those borrowed from the louvre

You know what's fun? When AWS is down so students can't upload the paper due tomorrow to the Course Management System faculty are ceaselessly hectored to use for everything. And you can't make an announcement on Canvas to tell them not to worry, because Canvas is down. That's what's fun.

Me but for grading b/c Canvas is down

"Canvas has died so that we may live"

the forced self-censorship gibberish we all have to do on social media now is having a devastating effect on the way people communicate with each other. nobody in a healthy society is saying "unalived"

this is the kind of thing you’d pay a kid just out of college to write, for a rate approaching minimum wage. i know because that was me 20 years ago. fuck everyone who participated in going from that to this

With alt text. Executive summary: the US killed at least 3 Colombian fishermen who’d put up a distress flag. In Colombian waters

If you wanna just give your money away have you considered round faced women????

Looking at men run around and giving another man money for it

Dismantling the Institutional Review Board (IRB), that oversees all human subjects research, is bad. Really bad.

I understand he's an unconventional hire, but I think Marco Rubio will do a great job as the new head coach of the Florida Gators

No Kings is good bc the mass opposition to authoritarianism is an important first step. But then we need to start figuring out how to have mass conversations about institutional reform. Yes, it’s not exciting, but if we don’t fix the root problem - our broken institutions - we’ll have more Kings.

Steve Blackburn, a diehard Seattle Mariners fan, got out his phone and started sending messages to a witch named Luna who sells custom spells on Etsy. "Luna please, I’m desperate," Blackburn typed. "Work your magic."

she is not a journalist, she’s a career op-ed writer who was allowed to commission articles for the opinion page that could’ve never passed basic newsroom standards. she has no clue what she’s doing. there’s a reason actual journalists look down on her www.nytimes.com/2025/10/19/b...

“Coach Carpetbag” would get a billion hits in the first hour. Conservatively.

This story is extraordinary even by 2025 standards. Marco Rubio, the nation's top diplomat, made a deal with Bukele and agreed to renege on informant agreements in a years-long DOJ investigation into MS-13, totally undercutting credibility of such agreements. www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

Doing the bare minimum without giving up is actually brave and good sometimes

Recruit competent side judges.

UAB 31, No. 22 Memphis 24. What a difference not having Trent Dilfer as your coach makes.

TBH, even my students are shocked by this idea that they can have political agency outside of just voting.

It's a good day to be a UAB fan. Go Blazers. Fire Mark Ingram. Free UAB.

Folks will be quick to ridicule people who do this, but it can’t be separated from the media hype and ai boosters telling us the tech is a magic answer wizard that knows all and sees all.

if i send you this, it's time to lock in

DARTMOUTH OUT! We are at 6 rejections. Vanderbilt is the only private left standing "considering" the compact along with UT Austin and the University of Arizona.

A quick moment for Croix Bethune 👏

The government said they aren’t releasing SNAP benefits in November — but ALDI is helping families out. Their Thanksgiving meal bundle feeds 10 people for just $40! 🦃 Available now through Christmas Eve, it includes 21 items (like a 14-lb turkey + sides). Share this with everyone!

Among George Santos’ many scams was a “pet charity” where he swindled people out of money who needed it for medical care for their pets. This is who Trump just pardoned www.nytimes.com/2023/02/09/n...

Shohei Ohtani is the first player with 3 homers and 10 strikeouts as a pitcher in a game Reg or post !!!

Proposal: instead of giving ChatGPT tens of billions of dollars to fail to create artificial intelligence, give me, an Actual Intelligence, a mere $10 million and I will gladly do a spreadsheet wrong for you from time to time for a modest fee.

Incredible stuff happening on the internet every day

it's such a good day to be a messy bitch who loves drama

There was a time when I could go to the C Town off Walton Avenue in the Bronx and get 16 lines for a dollar. SIX. TEEN.

Every time I see that “Kids do stupid things” quote from Vance on here I remember that Michael Brown was 18, Trayvon Martin was 17, and Tamir Rice was just 12 years old. Those were kids.
