First Plato—now Dr. Peterson—out the door at Texas A&M! Who’s next? Here is Dr. Peterson’s letter of resignation, which he just shared with the faculty.

Texas A&M claims it has “seamlessly completed” its Spring 2026 course review. That statement is false. Multiple courses addressing race, gender, and sexuality are still under review with faculty facing pressured to censor well into the semester. Texans deserve the truth, not spin.

Many of you know that my wife Sarah has ALS, which may be the worst disease of all fucking time. Next week our team is walking to tell ALS to GTFO at University of Houston. Please consider donating here: secure2.convio.net/alsa/site/TR...

This is a gross affront to free speech, academic freedom, and what’s left of A&M’s reputation as a good university. Shameful behavior president.tamu.edu/messages/an-...

This professor did nothing wrong, which is why the university president is using this weird and nonsensical “doesn’t match the course description” language. TAMU is clearly in the wrong here in terms of 1) the law, 2) academic freedom, and 3) just plain doing the right thing.

This is disgusting. If this is how they treat Alex Padilla, a United States Senator, how do you think they’ll treat you?

The other absurd part is the idea that the author is the final authority on their text. Asking what an author intended to say versus what they actually said are two different questions

Casey Cox @ccrismancox.bsky.social · 11/06/2025

What’s maddening about this, of course, is that authors choose every word in the text. Even in the case of describing a door as red, that’s conscious choice and as such as meaning.

My hot take is that this trend is a direct result of years of jokes about English teachers finding symbolism in text. These made whole generation think that all media is actually only surface deep and anything else is random, made-up bull shit. Authors adopted accordingly. Example:

Actually the best thing about this machine was that it was a gift from my dad’s cousin (who worked in waste management in Philly/Jersey). Strong fell off a truck vibe. This computer had some kind of German OS that kept trying to reassert itself when turned on.

Being ordered to deploy military against American protesters strikes me a no-brainer order for military to refuse. The fact that there hasn’t been reporting of refusals or terminations is very troubling.

I rarely post anything from teaching evals, and of course there are lots of problems with the whole medium, but this one from a grad student helped make me feel like I’m actually doing something positive here

Text that reads: “Casey is far and away the best methods professor I've had in this program. He seems genuinely happy to teach the students and cares about the material. He also personally cares about our wellbeing, and doesn't deride students for asking questions.”
