Loved the idea of being proud of "slowly won knowledge". Long live the book.

I think I became a Critical University Studies scholar when I drove 75 miles to a town I’d never heard of to buy a whole pig with cash, but received an employee discount because I was, just like the seller, instructional faculty at the University of California.

Check your stats! I did two days of claude via copilot last month and that was right at the break even point for the $10/month tier. Means that I’ve definitely had months with 5-10x subsidy

I think there's a certain amount of is/ought going on here. Is this what the purpose of university *should* be? No. Is it what it is in practice? Yes, mostly! To some degree we should be grateful that the liberal benefits of university *are still packaged* with that certification process.

One of the most clarifying passages I've ever read on what "polarization" actually means in the U.S."

Excerpt from the book How Democracies Die.

"America's democratic norms, then, were born in a context of exclusion. As long as the political community was restricted largely to whites, Democrats and Republicans had much in common. Neither party was likely to view the other as an existential threat. The process of racial inclusion that began after World War II and culminated in the 1964 Civil Rights Act and 1965 Voting Rights Act would, at long last, fully democratization the United States. But it would also polarized it, posing the greatest challenge to established forms of mutual tolerating and forbearance since Reconstruction."

It's a little jarring to see the "Appeal to Heaven" flag on the stage. That flag has been adopted as a symbol by far-right extremist and "patriot" groups. It was also carried by the mob that stormed the U.S. Capitol as part of the attempted insurrection on Jan. 6, 2021.

@prisonculture.bsky.social speaks of this from time to time of the collective unprocessed grief of the U.S. and how ultimately that spiritually disfigures and warps us as a society.

ICE detention deaths are now occurring at a rate of roughly one every four days. Three weeks ago that rate was one every six days. The pace is accelerating, and Congress has not launched a single investigation.

windows pcs are generally for casual users who mostly use it for web browsing and maybe a little gaming. linux is nearly identical except there's no keyboard. macs are for hardcore experts and professionals who take on the toughest tasks, such as drawing three-dimensional rectangles and squares
