I think people should listen to what the administration trying to bring back spectacle lynchings, race riots, and middle passage-esque deportation voyages are trying to tell you about themselves. bsky.app/profile/bren...

The Ancient Greek word for individual was “idios” which is where we get our word “idiot” from, and shows what they thought about individuality

Lafayette Square isn't "a historic protest site." It's a fucking park. And it's packed on nice days. Calling it a protest site is White House framing. They're closing a popular public park to create a presidential palace Saddam Hussein would love.

Hasan Piker Has a Few Choice Words for His Bad-Faith Critics
The centrist group Third Way accuses the popular progressive streamer of being a “Jew-hater.” His record, and an interview with TNR, prove he’s the opposite of an antisemite.

Over on Musk’s social division factory (aka X), people are fighting about who got the optogenetics Nobel. As a former PhD student and now a PI, I also once dramatically overestimated how easy it was to do science. I too thought “PhD student with an idea” was the same as doing the science. 🧪 1/2

who is ready for the Red Deer People's Republic post-referendum
A Globe and Mail investigation has found that Republican political operatives were on the ground in Alberta this year to assist the separatist campaign in its bid to leave Canada, while harbouring their own aspirations for the province to secede.

The Globe also found that when Alberta separatist leaders went to Washington to meet with the U.S. State Department, they offered up key assets from the province’s resource portfolio, including access to fresh water and royalties on crude oil, in exchange for help transitioning to independence.

Through interviews with The Globe on both sides of the border, people involved in politics, the corporate sector and Alberta’s pursuit of separatism have described persistent efforts by figures in the U.S. administration and conservative political establishment to support groups seeking American expansionism and independence for Alberta.

When you compare how much right-wing funding is going into their version of the humanities in higher ed ("civil discourse," "civic thought," "intellectual freedom") vs how little public or private funding there is for peer-reviewed humanities scholarship & teaching, it really makes you think.

NGL I am struggling to be sympathetic to researchers who were happy to use the plagiarism machine but are HORRIFIED to find that the plagiarism machine has plagiarised THEIR research. You were OK with using it even though it stole my work, but you expect me to care when it steals yours? Huh. 🐆😱

Four days ago, a scientist was surprised by the news that Anthropic discovered new virus genes for making DNA. He says he’s been studying them for years—and feeding his data to Anthropic’s AI as part of his own research. Coincidence? Here’s my story. nyti.ms/3VSWayc

Yes! Smaller journals, less focus on “prestige,” building genuine intellectual and scientific community. This cuts off the source of these problems at the root. Most scientific revolutionaries were a small group of people with novel ideas, not “big” names of the time.
