Academic bad actors often jump to a new job mid-investigation to hide misconduct, or sign non-disclosure pacts. A new proposal suggests a national database, like the one for doctors, to track academic fraud. With the kind of data fraud AI is going to unlock, it might not be a bad idea. #AcademicSky

Can't stand this guy.

A few have suggested that some aspects of this mission--joy, international teamwork, diversity--are being played up to stick it to the hateful attitude of the administration. But I don't think it's that. I think it's just that those things are essential to and inseparable from a mission like this.

Artemis II today.

Imagine going farther than any human has ever been from Earth and you still have to listen to this demented grandpa.

If the Nutella marketing team doesn’t come up with a commercial by end of this week to capitalize on this marketing opportunity they should all be fired. 😂😅

The founders believed that if a madman became president, members of Congress would serve the country’s interest and remove him from office. That seemed a reliable system to safeguard the republic. Boy, did they screw up.

never forget when the Easter Bunny sent Teddy Roosevelt to the shadow realm

This is the President's message on Easter Sunday.

Artemis II sent a pic of the beautiful garden planet we are too greedy, lazy, short-sighted, and ungrateful not to destroy:

native americans determined to not be birthright citizens; deported back to america

This is great! 😏😊🙂😉😜

Whether it’s Donald Trump invading Iran to protect himself from the Epstein files or Barack Obama wearing a bike helmet to protect himself from head injuries, both presidents made some curious safety decisions.

I appreciated this article and its specific ideas of improving engagement of faculty in the life of the university. #AcademicSky www.chronicle.com/article/when...

HAHAHAHAHAHA!

There was no Iranian war and crazy gas prices when Kamala Harris and Joe Biden were in The White House. 💙

My sources say it was former president John Barron

This is the most bananas thing I have ever read. It only makes sense if you are talking about three kids in middle school.

the democratic response to the SOTU should start with “is Donald Trump a pedophile?” and from there be entirely about the files

On top of wasting your taxpayer money on whatever this is, he is hiding the truth of the Epstein files and protecting the powerful instead of seeking justice for the victims. What an embarrassment of an FBI Director.

Rep. Massie:  “I've not seen any arrests from the revelations in the Epstein files…Over two dozen people have resigned, CEOs, members of government worldwide. But I haven't seen any arrests or investigations here in the United States from this DOJ.”

The world’s safest bet: Donald Trump will deliver a self-centered, grievance-filled lie fest billed as the State of the Union.

They need to add at least one event with dogs and their people!

Today, the Trump administration repealed the endangerment finding: the ruling that served as the basis for limits on tailpipe emissions and power plant rules. Without it, we’ll be less safe, less healthy and less able to fight climate change—all so the fossil fuel industry can make even more money.

There is no manner in which ICE agents now present themselves, no language they will direct at citizens or immigrants, no abuse or brutality they undertake, and no slaying they will commit that can at this point shock or surprise me. These thugs are not law enforcement. They are S.A. brownshirts.

This is a terrible development. Fascists are obliterating trust in the research enterprise, and no family will allow their child to take part in important research like this again. #academicsky www.nytimes.com/2026/01/24/u...

💯 THIS! 🎯🎯🎯

If someone leaked the Epstein files, they would easily be one of the most famous and celebrated people of the decade. 🙌

They are building this massive new data science and AI institute (that will house 100 faculty) next door to the department that studies climate change (which, checks notes, has 15ish faculty) in a building that is non-functional most days. Which says just about every fucking thing about 2026.

So shoot them?

Let us all stand with Chairman Powell.

Kristi Noem has had a disgraceful tenure marked by chaos, brutality, and rampant corruption. She should resign or be fired immediately. The question for the American people is, will this Republican-led Congress join Democrats in pushing for any accountability?

People keep telling me we just have to "accept" the harms of ChatGPT as the necessary price of progress, & that I'm a Luddite for not using it, but, well, I'm genuinely finding it hard to accept that so many kids simply "have to" die. IMHO it needs a product recall. www.sfgate.com/tech/article...

Wake up Congress!

"Please be kind enough to explain when and where and under what authority you gained access to this material.” Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse & Sen. Dick Durbin write letter to White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles, asking how she's "read the Epstein files"

Bill Barr had the reporter who broke the Epstein story surveilled. Nothing to see here, folks.
