Professor Michelle Amodei of Slippery Rock University (and her family!) know the power of public higher education in Pennsylvania. It’s time to increase state support for all of public higher ed in the Commonwealth.

If we don’t defend public higher education in Pennsylvania, who will? Everyone deserves the opportunity to learn. We must all stand together on Sept. 28 at the AffordableCollegeNow! rally in Harrisburg. RSVP: www.apscuf.org/sept28rally #AffordableCollegeNow

The professors and instructors who turn classrooms back into spaces for reading and discussion, are going to leave the biggest legacies in this world. Everyone one else will disappear into LLM wallpaper proxies and derivatives.

Reacting to the past games, while a ton of work, are really so rewarding. I love when students get super into it! Also this game is turning out quite wild due to some unfortunate absences on key days

"General Will? More like King's Will" is the headline for this Jacobin newspaper for today

It's been 6 years since I lived in Lexington and I got to visit again for a wedding. It's insane how much has changed and how much new construction there is. Glad to see our brutalist history office building hasn't changed a bit and North Lime Donuts still slap.

I would LOVE TO be able to say the typos in my PowerPoints are a pedagogical tool because I am modeling that authenticity matters and mistakes are ok as long as you are trying and not offloading all of your cognition to AI. But really I am just overworked and on a time crunch.

As one New York financier told Financial Times journalist Gillian Tett, new hires who were seen as “AI natives” are turning out to have alarmingly shallow ideas. So much so, the anonymous finance worker admitted, that his firm now actively avoids seeking out AI-literate STEM graduates, and opts to comb through humanities students instead.

There is a little Italian restaurant near us that is 1) Only open 11:30 am-5:30pm on Sundays. 2) has a limited menu with some combination of pasta, red sauce, meatballs, and bread. 3)Looks like it is in a church basement But it also has this meatball sandwich the size of a football.

Pittsburgh Airport got a massive renovation. But, I might be the only person in the world that looks forward to seeing the old 1980s tile work. It's still around in parts. My father & grandfather were tile setters and worked on the airport. I wonder if the new floors will last over 40 years?

I sold my first house when I moved to my current position. I just got a Zillow notification that it is for sale again. Its fun to see what the owners did with the house over the past three years. Glad to see they kept my DIY patio that I put my blood sweat and tears into. Also my funky tile choices!

When Moose wants to play he grabs a sock or shoe and basically begs me to chase him. It's his favorite game. One time, while playing, he accidentally swallowed the sock. We panicked. Called the vet. Tried to make him throw up. Eventually weeks went by. A full 2 months later he threw up the sock.

Sad dog begging me to chase him for a sock he stole

Harry Potter was my whole personality in middle school. Some family members still assume it is part of my life. But I have abandoned all HP related IP because of JK R's hateful transphobic campaign. I just am mad at how much power she had to do good. But instead she did the most evil shit possible.

It Is hard to celebrate America at 250... When this is what we brought to the world. Death. Violence. Also domestically: ice reign of terror, economic stagnation, targeting vulnerable populations including trans people, rampant misogyny. This is the best we could do in 250 years?
