In a country that took the humanities seriously, way more of the medievalists you’re seeking out to explain Avignon would have actual academic jobs.

“Failing up“ got us fucked up right now. There are some of the biggest idiots in the world at the helm of the US, if you’re wondering why things aren’t going well. You should feel intellectually intimated by your leadership, to some degree. Stop putting stupid in charge because you can relate.

It’s amazing how quickly Black women have been targeted by these laws and doubly so how little this factors into the analysis around the sexual and gender politics of this movement.

Insurance companies should never dictate how care is delivered. We need to have healthcare protected as a human right. Free at the point of service. Paid for by the government. We need more healthcare professionals (pay them, train them). More facilities. Greater preventative care.

Bad legal writing is often the product of bad legal REASONING and so you can't separate the "important" stuff from the "boring" stuff the way that the legal AI evangelists assume.

One thing that AI evangelists seem to assume, particularly legal AI evangelists assume, is that the thinking and analysis is quick, and the writing is just tedious busywork that slows us down. But the writing IS the thinking and analysis. You work out the thinking and analysis by writing it down.

among all the other reasons why this is obviously evil, it’s a new ghoulish way to shame and police how we are allowed to exist in public will the AI version of a fat or disabled person eliminate those “flaws”? will it erase gray hair and wrinkles or lighten skin to “perfect” your appearance?

one of the really gross aspects of the AI zombie resurrection thing we should (carefully!!!!!) discuss more is the fact that this is not what Val Kilmer looked like when he died. they don’t want the human Val Kilmer. they want a simulacrum of the idealized memory of him you have in your mind

The wholesale failure of the mainstream so-called "AI ethics" project is because it is instead a successful process of creating industry stooges, who walk amongst us, hollowing out future colleagues and posturing provocatively about the inevitability of the future

IMO, this is one reason (of many) why milquetoast AI literacy lessons are such a failure: they don't engage students with questions like, "Should 'robot dogs' be deployed to protect the sprawling infrastructure of AI?"

The USPS is cool as hell and essential. Demolishing it would be devastating for everyone but would really hit rural communities. It's not just about the services they provide, but the community connections too: Mail carriers look out for the people on their routes.

I think they do this sort of thing because they are absolutely enraged at the idea of spending money on anything that does not directly line their pockets or hurt their enemies...and they don't understand why anything is necessary or might be necessary. 1

Seniors on fixed incomes face impossible costs under the SAVE Act. Birth certificates from seventy years ago cost money to replace. Passports cost $165. They built this country. Republicans want to charge them for the right to participate in it.

Academic women on social media are routinely confronted by (usually) men who have no expertise in their fields but whose only goal is to challenge that expertise. ‘Why don’t you do this’ ‘Smile more’ We get it in conferences. And classrooms. We can smell the misogyny a mile off. Just saying.

Discussions of disability and race don’t intersect in white disability circles. There can be compassion for this man but not for Delroy and Michael? Black disabled people exist. We exist. Compassion for disability does not erase the indignity of what happened to them on that stage.

Jesse Jackson, civil rights icon, dies aged 84
A fixture in Democratic politics who ran for 1988 presidential nomination, Jackson was once close to Martin Luther King Jr The Rev Jesse Jackson, the civil rights campaigner who was prominent for more than 50 years and who ran strongly for the Democratic presidential nomination in 1988, has died. He was 84. “Our father was a servant leader — not only to our family, but to the oppressed, the voiceless, and the overlooked around the world,” the Jackson family said in a statement. “We shared him with the world, and in return, the world became part of our extended family. His unwavering belief in justice, equality, and love uplifted millions, and we ask you to honor his memory by continuing the fight for the values he lived by.” Continue reading...
