"Every capitalist enterprise is an act of mafia-style land-grabbing — this case is as emblematic as countless others. But listing the injustices suffered, the rights trampled, or the many abuses of power will not move us forward one step. Everything is glaringly obvious to those who care to see it."

"But the power of actions and practices that, despite everything, propel the heart beyond its obstacles, and point toward the building of a possible collective force…that, yes, that still seems to hold appeal and meaning." illwill.com/after-july

Maybe a hot take, but I don't think 99 percent of comments about cited literature, literature reviews, or "situated"ness are useful or helpful in peer review.

The AI dipshits only see art as a product, and not an experience. They don't care about the experience and thought of creation or the experience of understanding. It's just a series of words, images and sounds to pass through your skull to occupy some time before you die.

After spending 6 weeks in Linköping, Sweden, I'm back in the US and actually in shock at the difference in grocery prices, particularly for fresh food.

It is unsurprising that my alma mater has not reacted to the presence of fascists on campus. It is the culture the institution has cultivated actively for at least the last decade. www.miamiherald.com/news/politic...

No FIU students are suspended over racist group chat yet. It’s roiling campus
Some students accuse the school of a hypocritical free-speech policy ahead of a new law making it easier to expel students taking effect.

Trying out a new workflow where I write my reading notes into Obsidian and use it to generate a network map that I use to better conceptualize gaps. It's really been helpful in organizing my thoughts which I feel like I haven't been able to do very well since ~2020.

I need a better way to find new books for my graduate seminars that doesn't require searching each publisher's website. Goodreads and JSTOR are useless. Any recommendations?

University has decided faculty are no longer allowed to install, update, or uninstall software on their computers. They've issued me a new computer that doesn't have the software I teach installed. Incredible foresight.

I asked students struggling to setup a group chat why they didn't use a different messaging app. "Like WhatsApp," they ask. "Well, I use Signal." "Yeah, you look like you would use Signal."

Same with the USL season. Starts up in March and runs though October. I grew up a Marlins fan but stopped watching baseball after the stadium deal/fire sale. Switched to soccer.

I get uncomfortable when people say something like "I'm sorry" when I say I'm from Florida. I don't think people realize how incredible of a place it has been (and could be again). I don't think there would be space for someone like Jesse in Gainesville now, though. Maybe that's what the apology is?

Reviewing grant/scholarship/fellowship propsals/applications really impresses upon me how much need there is to break graduate students out of the "no one has done this" paradigm. More often than not, someone has done it. That's not what novelty needs to be.

MDC Brooklyn has frequent lockdowns and the people there are regularly subjected to violence from the guards. In 2020, mass protests regularly occurred outside the facility after Jamel Floyd was pepper sprayed to death. Do not assume anyone in the facility is safe.

I keep seeing posts about how Luigi Mangione will be taken care of and perfected. He's at MDC Brooklyn, a facility that frequently has no heat and had conditions so poor that BOP stopped sending convicted people there after a judge described the conditions as "dangerous" and "barbaric."
