It has always been thus! Charley Pride didn’t have his picture on his first album bc he was black! Also, see how women are restricted from airplay! Nashville segregates itself pretty heavily

Alcohol!! I hear you—my adhd kid kept forgetting to put her name on the homework—so it was done and turned in but the teacher didn’t know it was hers. This happened for like a year

Two people and a dog are sitting on a blanket in a park at night, viewing a large, vibrant firework display in the dark sky above. The scene is illuminated by the glow of the fireworks and surrounding park lighting, with a building visible in the background on the left.

Seems timely to remember "it is plainly contrary to the law of nature, however defined, that children should command old men, fools wise men, and that the privileged few should gorge themselves with superfluities, while the starving multitude are in want of the bare necessities of life"--Rousseau

I'm sorry, what? In writing my first monograph, I spent six weeks trying to track down a citation in TWO languages I didn't know. And good thing too, because the citation was wrong. That's scholarship. That's research. You know, the thing we're trained to do?!?

The reactions of some researchers on Twitter finally being held responsible for not having read the very paper they submitted are... something. Mainly, they don't think they should have to check every citation or make sure the data is real and accurate. Because it's too hard, I guess.

I know! Formatting citations seems like something it should be able to do and there isn’t one citation generator that gets them accurate consistently

The best poem in the world is about this!! “This Be the Verse” by Larkin!! “THey fuck you up, your mum and dad/They do not mean to, but they do./They give you all the faults they had/ And add some extra just for you/ But they were fucked up in turn/By fools in old style hats and coats”

It is genuinely insane to watch capital decide that allowing this shit to go on is better for them than having to allow the FTC to do mild monopoly investigations and require cancellation buttons on websites.
