This is our first time watching The Traitors in any iteration. It's like a sociology experiment in how people take tiny seeds of random behaviour and accrete meaning around them.

There's just a group of academic "rock star" bskyers where you think "yeah, ok, but I feel like at some point I'm going to block this dude" and that feeling is always correct.

Big favorite of mine is when posters use a diagnosis as justification for being an asshole. "It's just my A*** makes me want to stunt on the NTs" ok Mr. Nice Guy, I'll wait for you to arbitrarily choose who that is

I assume that you know that there is an attack on the academic world right now and this behaviour from tech or tech-adjacent folks like SE Gyges, Rev Arson, etc. reeks of it.

It's not neat. As an academic, I need to understand a text. I need to contextualise it for my fields with other people. A chatbot cannot even in the most charitable interpretation do anything but waste time and pollute in the pursuit of building within ourselves our unique understandings. Also...

I guess it's kind of hard to view the dismissal of one grublike phrenologist as a major hit to free speech after major American universities have in the past year banned the use of words and eliminated entire departments in the hopes of pleasing the senile president

Further, who does and does not have a department is a question of academic freedom as the existence of a department (and limitedly a program) is a recognition of the existence of a field of inquiry and a space from which to engage in inquiry.

The Vanderbilt report and Trump’s attack on the NIH and NSF are part of the same right-wing effort to attack the authority of all peer-reviewed knowledge so that they can police what researchers write, say, publish, and think to ensure it complies with corporate-friendly aims.

My Lit Publications and Design class finished their final products and I'm very proud of them, and I want to show a few of their handmade chapbooks, hand-folded blizzard books, and broadsides

A chapbook cover with "Parasite" as the written title. The cover art has a red hand with puppeteer strings descending to the words of the title.

A covered blizzard book with the words "Kitchen Bin Menagerie" A red string ties the blizzard book closed. The cover has a floral and butterfly print paper and a decorative chain across the top.

A post-and-screw bound book with a cover that has a map surrounding an inset with a quilt square.

A broadside with a poem called "Road Kill" and a picture of a deer with a fawn. The deer has a halo. The words of the poem are illegible from this distance.

According to this, Canvas's IgniteAI Agent will handle "low-value" tasks: "The new technology...can automate 'low-value' tasks for faculty such as rubric generation, content alignment and discussion reviews." Those are not low value, they are essential pedagogical choices that define a class. (1/3)
