How dare you show me this before I finished my coffee! My brain is malfunctioning, because it doesn't have the power to process this dumbassery.

I think both your public and scholarly work is great, so I'm sad you never felt appreciated at Penn! Best wishes to you!

I had a great time partaking in @cyndimunsonok.bsky.social ‘s Alva townhall and really enjoyed her poignant response to my question in regard to her honoring Carl Albert’s legacy of bipartisanship and working for Oklahomans! 😊

I still maintain that the first sentence in the second image was written by an AI. It’s grammatically correct but doesn’t mean anything.

New research brief I wrote for CRHE! I take a look at the changing demographics of homeschooling in the US, including how homeschooling is no longer just a white conservative Christian phenomenon and what existing data can (and can't) tell us about who's homeschooling today.

Teaching children that reporting their sexual abuse is a sin so adults can protect an abuser is absolutely horrific.

I don’t necessarily hate the Wall Street Journal’s actual journalism. But their op-ed section might as well be Newsmax or Hannity. Just MAGA bootlickers and trolls.

It’s incredibly frustrating to read about cases like this. This year, we fought for basic safeguards for homeschooled children in Illinois, but the bill stalled amid enormous public backlash. Cases like this will keep happening unless Illinois adopts basic protections for homeschooled kids.

“The exemptions also keep police and social workers from stepping in to protect a dead child’s surviving siblings from suffering a similar fate, no matter how many of them die.” Parents’ rights should never come at the expense of children’s basic rights.

Like the cigarette companies, I believe the AI companies know exactly what they’re doing. They’re trying to attract users while they’re young and get them addicted to their product.

Here’s OpenAI’s and Meta’s AI agents. They look like children’s cartoon characters.

Yes, I believe it’s illegal for cigarette companies to do that now.

Kenneth Ethan Frantz @kennethefrantz.bsky.social · 02/10/2026

I'm concerned about the designs of Meta's and OpenAI's new AI agents because they remind me of how cigarette companies targeted minors by using cartoon characters in their advertisements.
