Jesus Christ Cornell

What use was it to bring the writer and activist Chanel Miller to campus in the spring just for fraternity brothers to scroll, bored, on their phones as she movingly shared her experience as Emily Doe, the victim of Brock Turner? As I wrote at the time, I was floored and dismayed as I sat in the audience with one of my brilliant undergraduates; we heard Miller’s shattering account of being sexually assaulted by Turner behind a dumpster at Stanford University after a fraternity party. Her talk was riveting, and there was so much to learn from it. And yet many of the male students who hailed predominantly from fraternities — 15 percent of each chapter was required to be in attendance — were so tuned out that Miller commented ruefully: “You know, this has been my hardest gig, because they didn’t turn down the house lights. I’m not sure how you professors do it, because it’s so hard looking out at this sea of mildly disgruntled faces. I mean, I’m sure you’re all very moved, but …,” Miller smiled. The implication being, it didn’t seem like it, from her angle.

A truly heinous man has doxxed the Cornell victim on X and the comments are predictably vile. Based on countless interviews I’ve done with survivors, the trauma they are subjected to for coming forward is oftentimes even worse than the initial trauma they experienced. There is no real justice system

One reason to learn about things outside your major is so that you have something to talk about with people at parties and on dates. No amount of money will make up for you being a crushing bore. History majors learn this early but I guess it takes other people longer.

So many things to hate here but, to begin with, if your learning is “effortless” you’re probably not learning. Sorry, it’s like going to the gym, there’s effort involved definitionally.

So glad to know that I definitely don’t like the right music and it’s certainly not cool enough and it’s too late to care or do anything about it. (Also Choosin’ Texas sucks, sorry. Mid at best and the video is painfully bad).

Just when I think I can’t hate OpenAI and Sam Altman any more, new details come out about how ChatGPT helped a shooter plan one of the worst mass shootings in Canadian history in Tumbler Ridge, BC. OpenAI made an explicit decision not to report the user to authorities.

Perfect visual metaphor for my life right now.

A cute singer featherweight sewing machine sits, ready to use, ready to create something lovely, on a table top that has become cluttered with accumulated THINGS- detritus from work and other obligations, unopened mail, school work, books that need reading for lesson planning, junk mail, a bunch of paper clips. Creativity stifled by the struggle for daily existence.
