Historian here to remind you that when the student body was
predominantly white, world-class public universities like Berkeley charged no tuition. Today's student debt is a product of underfunding of education right as integration began to take place.

All I have to say is today was a day where I saw an anti-bullying BMX assembly sponsored by the Marine Corps and PETA2.

So I wonder if stuff like this, based on the calls for an “AI slowdown” from earlier this week, is an indication that AI is terrible at doing what these charlatans promised but really good at hacking into otherwise secure networks.

Pretending the days after Sept. 11, 2001 were some kind of gauzy Hallmark special when we came together as a country is nauseating and ahistorical. The country went completely insane and has not recovered

the argument against Mamdani attending the 9/11 anniversary, as far as I can tell, is literally just that he’s Muslim, and reposting it is just reporting rank racism

Been reading a 40-year old novel for the past few weeks and have somehow managed to not have it spoiled until my father-in-law just casually drops the ending after I said I’m reading it for the first time and haven’t seen the series like 3 times in the past few minutes. Absolutely livid.

Natalie Harp is a year older than Martin Luther King Jr. was when he gave his I Have a Dream speech. She has agency and is running the propaganda operation that serves to put people in concentration camps. She does not get a pass because she looks like a dipshit teenager.

“Writing builds our working memory, executive planning skills and metacognition — the ability to think about our thinking, weigh alternate viewpoints and revise for clarity and style. It takes decades to develop writing skills, from toddlerhood into adulthood.”

What Do Students Lose When They Stop Writing?

Educators are worried that many students can no longer write essays without A.I. And it’s costing more than just grammar skills.

You played the recorder in part to strengthen your fine motor skills and in part to introduce you to basic music theory concepts like rhythm, the C-major scale, and reading basic music notes. Your teachers wanted to make elementary music education available to all, not just the rich.

Threads post "And then for no reason, no reason at all, they made us all learn how to play the recorder"

Boy, there is just nothing good about this Arday story. Plagiarizing fabulists shouldn’t have jobs in academia but they also shouldn’t be harassed to death by racist cowards.

It really never stops burning me to hear this kind of shit. We come to this country, we buy its narratives, we believe in the system, we contribute so much to society (Sayed is a fucking doctor and Rhodes scholar) - and these inbred bigots have the audacity to say things like this publicly.

The legend Robin Lopez

Tweet from Robin Lopez that reads: Biggest issue: if you’re being drafted, people are saying “we want you around for 4 years” & I can’t imagine anybody wants Enes Kanter or Royce White around them for even 4 minutes. We’ve seen this illustrated whenever Enes is near Turkey or Royce comes close to logic/reality

Robin Lopez responding to Royce white. White says: lol join the club ROBIN … I’ll slap your big goofy ass, bitch slap you like pootie tang! I will fight over these trans rights.

Lopez responds: yes we get it you love slapping people with women’s names

Just saw a thing where a director talked about taking out sex/nudity because audiences don’t want to see it. Here’s an idea: fuck the audience. I’m the chef & they’ll eat what I serve them and like it. *The audience* knows what they want? Why don’t you let a toddler drive a car next?

The effective federal corporate income tax rate: 1950: 50% 1990: 25% 2020: 13% Stop asking "but how we will pay for it?" Restore the corporate tax rate. That is how we will pay for it.

This was my exact experience re-reading Confederacy of Dunces last year. Me in 2007: haha this guy, what a weirdo, so many absurd hijinx Me in 2025: oh no, a book about the same type of guy who ruins everything else around me, and now he's ruining reading too

And yet I see so many people here being obtuse about economic statistics. People feel bad about the economy because they go shopping and feel the squeeze regularly.

So I’m at a Mexican restaurant on the side of Rt 1 waiting for a trailer hitch to be installed on my car and I’m the only gringo in this place. Best restaurant meal I’ve had in a long time.

Wait. They all shake hands at the end? What are we even doing here? He's the US President suing you for $20 billion for reporting on the birthday card he sent his friend the pedophile in which he drew a naked girl & mused about secrets. And they all shake hands?
