The teachers are tired. We do not care about Spirit Week the last week of school. The teachers are me.

“That is shocking. And no, I don’t mean the size and implications of this massive data breach…I mean that this is the story: “the LMS is down. We can’t do school.” This take down of LMS’s in light of he Canvas breach is even better than the one I posted earlier today. Read and take to heart.

For the second time in less than a year, a major disruption to the learning management system Canvas has prompted cries (and headlines) that “we can’t do school!” In the fall of 2025, an Amazon Web S...

tech companies: AI is going to take your job, decide whom to target in future forever wars, supplant all human connection, and entrap the average voter in a funhouse mirror version of reality that will make them incapable of making rational decisions. also tech companies: Why so afraid of AI??

People in the US really need to pay attention to what's happening with Palestine Action in the UK. Even if we get out from under Trump, we should expect to see these tactics deployed in the US, unless something truly transformative happens.

Das ist ein sehr guter Thread zur digitalen Bildkompetenz, weil er nicht darauf setzt, dass man KI-Bilder an bestimmten verräterischen Details o.ä. erkennen kann, sondern zur Quellenkritik ermuntert und die entscheidende Frage stellt: Warum sehe ich das? #DigitalVisualLiteracy

DID YOU KNOW? The states currently gerrymandering to remove Black political representation are also states that do not have bans on segregation in public accommodations? Once they finally overturn the Civil Rights Act of 1964 they’ll be free to fully live out their racial segregationist fantasies…

"The list of platforms that now mediate the basic functions of education ... is almost comically long ... most schools are running 10–15 different EdTech products that all promise efficiency, but in reality create confusion, frustration, and complicate what was once much simpler." 🎯

This experience is chilling even if it may not be surprising. This long-term devil's bargain we've entered has so many adverse consequences, in spite of whatever benefits we may derive on the daily.

If Black votes didn't matter, they wouldn't be working this hard to steal them. You don't spend millions of dollars and pass dozens of restrictive laws to stop something that "doesn't matter."

If there's one thing I care about more than trans rights its that people at the lowest rungs of society have gifts and talents that equal that at the highest, and their gifts are being squandered, and no one really internalizes that or cares.

This semester I taught a course on the History of the Far Right in the US. We were lucky to have one of the Pacific Northwest's best contemporary chroniclers and interpreters of the far right, @leahsottile.bsky.social, visit the class. This piece by Leah was inspired by what she heard students say.

so far, much of the analysis of Callais out there is focused on what the Court's rulings did to the Voting Rights Act, which is reasonable but now I want to talk about what the Court did to the Constitution bc the threat of Callais goes far beyond the VRA alone ballsandstrikes.org/scotus/alito...
ballsandstrikes.org
Samuel Alito Didn’t Only Gut the Voting Rights Act. He Rewrote the Constitution, Too
The Court’s decision in Callais will make it more challenging for Congress to pass laws designed to protect multiracial democracy.

Nice column, but my confession is that I dislike the entire "debate". I don't need research telling me that kids would be a bad idea *for me*. We could all just respect other people's choices, especially when we know nothing about their circumstances.

The overriding goal of America's right wing is to restore chattel slavery so they can own Black people. That's it. Whether they will admit it or not, whether they'll even admit it to themselves, their goal is legal domination and subjugation through violence of Black people. Everything leads there.
