Yes I love her! And you should also check out Hildegard von Blingen’s Pink Pony Inn because it cracks me up

That was my first thought too. Perhaps refaire parler?

So he’s saying if you see people holding professionally printed identical signs that means they’re paid protestors

People at a Trump rally holding identical printed signs saying mass deportation now

The 2014 Fort Hood shooting had four deaths, but the one Hasam was responsible for was in 2009 and killed 13—in case anyone’s wondering!

Also, your regular reminder that marginal income & wealth taxes are too low, & this poses an existential threat to democracy.

Democrats defend "science," but what they really should be defending is "wissenschaft." No major social problems - from global warming to AI - can be solved without non-commercial research across multiple fields, including the social sciences and humanities. Really wish the party understood this.

I tend to think it’s not the diversity in itself but how it’s structured—if the regime sees some ethnicities as inferior and treats them accordingly, then yeah you’re going to have problems

Happy Stanislav Petrov Day. Today we celebrate the life of a man who saved billions by not believing a computer. May we all learn this valuable lesson.

Oh for sure, lots of bad and neglectful parenting flies under the radar, which is super harmful. I just thought they meant there was no parent present at all

Not that foster care is an unproblematic option. But I’m sorry you had that put on you. Your father being physically present explains why it happened, thanks for clarifying

Anna Christine Grant @christorical.bsky.social · 21/09/2026

See I just thought this wasn’t allowed and somebody would step in and put you all in foster care

Oh what? Hadn’t heard anything about Mieville. Gaiman was a punch in the gut but Mieville would perhaps be worse

and like why are we centering the complaints of the parents who think the value of sports is "my kid might become a star" instead of the ones who are like "this is a great way to learn teamwork, move your body every day, work hard at a skill, and learn how to lose or fail at things with grace"

"wow, everyone knew this already" is such a cynical, annoying and unfortunately extremely common response to tech news. assuming your privacy is being violated and proving that it is are two very different things, and the latter is the result of hard work and rigorous reporting

As someone who is elbows deep in revisions on a book about historical knowledge production and its connection to how we develop and reinforce historical memory, I cannot emphasize enough how incredibly destructive and dangerous it is to get your history from content generated by LLMs/genAI.

I’m Canadian! Not a proper francophone though. Paresseux means lazy, désœuvré is idle in the sense of not currently doing anything, but it’s your name so you should sign it however you like

Exactly. All the shame they heaped on teen mothers was about making them relinquish, not actually caring about their wellbeing

I'm teaching war and militarization in Africa in the spring...I'm thinking that I need some texts to think through how people become numbers. Body counts, hostages, liberated. How do numbers bring meaning to narratives of conflict? Any suggestions--specific to African continent as a bonus?
