SICK Democrats want to paint a tunnel onto a cliffside and let POTUS run right into it, collapsing his body like an ACCORDION.

PSA: if you use an LLM to do your writing, no you didn’t BECAUSE IT IS NOT YOUR WRITING!! YOU ARE NOT A WRITER. You extruded some text from the plagiarism machine. YOU ARE A PLAGIARIST. YOU WILL NEVER BE A WRITER BY STEALING OTHERS’ WORDS.

I am thrilled our education system is totally dependent on monopoly platforms like Canvas which along with using AI to surveil all my IP & my students data are really easy to hack thanks to AI. Let's double down on technology & praise our tech overlords for delivering us this shattered world.

With Canvas down and a lot of semesters otherwise ending, there's a strong danger of anyone becoming a Main Character on academic Bluesky.

I JUST remembered watching this in one of my junior high classes, and I’m glad to see others in the comments had the same idea to revisit it in 2026.

I’m sorry, but it is disgraceful to be an academic who uses this technology to conduct research. It should be prohibited in all of our scholarly institutions, including universities and journals.

uniquely hellish experience to have no voice on your last day of class while also flinching at any phone call or text that you get in case it’s about to confirm that your Papa, who raised you, has died. oh, and it’s ten degrees, and i’m here until 6:15.

Is there an untranslatable German word for “the feeling of losing a grandparent who is functionally your parent, and most people don’t quite understand your grief, but you would feel like a jackass if you tried to tell someone who has lost a parent that you understand their grief?”

Almost a year now since I received this absolutely classic burn from the Canadian government.
A cropped screenshot from a Canadian government website with the prompt "What's your occupation?"

The answer "Writer" has been provided, generating the red text error response "Please enter a valid occupation."

We don’t need to reform ICE. We don’t need alternatives to ICE. We don’t need to engage in dishonest debates wondering what the U.S. would do without ICE. ICE isn’t even 23 years old. Most adults know a world without ICE. And the billions used to fund ICE can be used to meet people’s basic needs.

This week I got the two best compliments I could ever receive: 1) "You can historicize like a motherfucker," and 2) "Usually when I see someone's list of favorite films, I feel like I know them on a deeper level. When I see your list of favorite films, I feel lost and confused."

Me recommending Mona Awad's "Bunny" to friends: It made me have vivid emotional flashbacks to PhD coursework and sickened me to my core. I had to take it one chapter a day because I felt the plot too deeply. It's one of my favorite books of all time, 10/10, perfect piece of art.

My 8th book, Taco, is an object in the world! I received the first theee copies out of the printer ahead of its October pub date. I pulled out a shirt I had for the occasion. I am very grateful to Bloomsbury, to Ian Bogost and Chris Schaberg and to all who ate tacos and invited me to read!
