In slightly unpleasant news from history today, it’s the 327th anniversary of the first time entrapment was used to secure a conviction for homosexuality: Captain Edward Rigby of the Royal Navy’s assignation with William Minton was a set-up – but Rigby had the last laugh...

A family friend was telling us about what her husband shared about his experience in Broadview before he was deported back to Mexico. She's been sharing to friends and family because she's just in disbelief & horror what her husband told her. She wasn't able to talk to him until he was in Mexico.

Actual (hypothetical) question— A college provides students with access to an LLM. The LLM encourages or supports student self-harm or worse. Is this a potential liability issue for the college?

A fun question. In 5 years time, what looks better? The US’s enormous bet & capex on AI? Or China’s equally enormous bet and capex on renewables?

The man who ended USAID is the world's first trillionaire

Tonight was the inaugural ride of our new home buyout program. We connect with vendors too scared to be out, and we purchase from them at home. Tonight we bought 250 tamales, divided into 3 teams to deliver all over the city to folks on the street, Love Fridges, and a youth shelter.

BlueSky shoutout on Abbot Elementary!

Almost everything a driverless car does transit can do better with the added benefit of not having to think about your car.

This, in particular, is spectacularly hideous. It's like something you'd see on the wall of a car dealership where they put pictures of their top salespeople every month

Who are the 7% who don’t love the National Park Service?!

A List of Things Said to Have Been Ruined by Women 🧵

The two presidential candidates we’ve met so far have been disappointing. Tomorrow is our interim president and I think he’ll be a slam dunk

The Rutherford County Library System in Tennessee is temporarily closing two branches in order to remove books from them. Why? Because the Secretary of State told them to do it, citing laws and Executive Orders that undermine the Constititon. bookriot.com/rutherford-c...

You can’t get to hell without going through Atlanta

Let’s cut flights at the busiest airport in the world! Sure that won’t be a problem!

Hoo boy 85 will be even worse than usual over Thanksgiving. What fun

Lovecraft: i shudder to think what new york would look like in the greasy grasp of a scheming italian Lovecraft: ugh, there would be a pizza place on every block! King: Poe: Koontz: Barker:

The novel discussion in comp today went from Appalachian lit to how old and mystical the Appalachian mountains are to our resident sasquatch Knobby so we had fun www.wral.com/video/lifest...

Not a single university would remain standing for more than a week without administrative assistants who are women 99% of the time

What is a ... "masculine virtue" ? As a person who spends most of their time in community whose medium of exchange is "Virtue" I can tell you i have not come across a "virtue" that is masculine

Thinking of ruining my workplace today, tbd. Will depend on whether I have time between meetings

I want y'all to know that I am out there ruining things all the time.

The truly maddening thing is that, unlike when I was a young man in science and the materials and engineering just weren’t there yet, the future is *right there.* The problem is *solved*. What’s holding us back is not just greed, but this bizarre nostalgia, an obsession with petro- masculinity.

I see the NY Times is relitigating The Woman Question

I wrote about why I can't sleep at night: the devaluation of so many things (critical thinking, creativity) I thought were paramount. lithub.com/when-we-deva...

Last ortho visit! Last time I pay $75 for 5 minutes of dr time! I am FREEEEE

Cool. What would you call the other wing then? www.nytimes.com/2025/11/03/u...

“They didn’t just walk in chasing one person, they went into multiple rooms asking and looking for teachers while children were present,” Ramirez said. “This is an agency that has gone rogue and it an agency that believes that as long as they can cover their face, they can get away with anything.”

The whole of the internet is now run on the things that would have not made it past your email junk filter 20 years ago.

Why would I want to shoot my copy of Persuasion with tiny tear bullets

This reads like an 18C conduct book - “when a car doesn’t stop even when it should” = here’s how to act when your husband inevitably cheats on you

Mamdani went to a small college similar to the one where I work and majored in Africana Studies. From now on my answer to the microaggressive question of “what can one (even) do with a Black Studies degree from a liberal arts college?” is “You can run New York.”

"Last week, I watched a flaneur spend his entire afternoon staring at a blank piece of cardboard. When my manager asked what he was doing, the man responded that he was 'Kinda just raw-dogging the Montmartre, waiting for the light to hit.'"

Increasingly the Venn diagram of my intellectual interests & commitments—digital humanities, book history/bibliography, book arts, critical making—perhaps meet in the region "Luddite Humanities" Not technological rejection—but slower, deliberate, critical, historicized engagement with technology
