In good news, it only matters if you’re preparing documents for further publication. Plus you can set up a find-and-replace to fix the whole document at once!

A Tennessee appellate court has ruled that the killing of a woman may have been justifiable because she was trans. The court reversed a conviction, stating that the killer could have a new trial because the jury did not know the woman killed was trans. Trans panic in the modern era.

Killing of Woman May Have Been Justifiable Because She Was Trans, Tennessee Court Rules
The case is a bitter reminder of the ways LGBTQ people have had their identities weaponized by the courts in the past, most notoriously through a legal defense tactic known as gay or trans “panic.”

Yes—all of this! (Also, only 56% saw faculty morale declining? Were they comparing this to 6 months ago? Or did their faculty hit rock bottom in 2021?)

Collectively, the cases we’ve documented show that as the administration has relentlessly pursued immigrants, it has run roughshod over the constitutional rights of citizens, too, and on a scale not seen in generations. Read our full story:

More Than 500 U.S. Citizens Have Been Detained, Including Handcuffed or Held at Gunpoint, in Trump’s Immigration Crackdown — ProPublica
The government doesn’t track how often immigration officers detain U.S. citizens. So ProPublica did. We’ve found more than 500 Americans who were held against their will during this Trump…

Alas, the NWS is a federal agency that is required to use the orange one’s whims. I’m certain most who work there cringe each time they face this.

It's Oct 3. The midterms are a month away, but early voting has already begun in some states. Mail-in ballots will start circulating soon. Some of the usual suspects are already pushing the same "rigged election" rumors we've all heard before. This year, you can play along at home. bingo.cip.uw.edu

This Wednesday, Elon Musk called for the death sentence for transgender youth care providers. It was in reply to a post calling for full criminalization of all gender-affirming surgery. Musk is becoming even more radicalized in targeting trans people. Subscribe to support our journalism.

First, check out the smart student journalism that led to national coverage: www.thedartmouth.com/article/2026...
thedartmouth.com
Op-eds, academic articles by Provost Santiago Schnell flagged as ‘AI-written’ by ‘near-zero error’ AI detector Pangram
Schnell said he used artificial intelligence for “making writing processes more efficient,” but that AI was not a “substitute” for his own “intellectual judgment or authorship.”

Yes! I think the shame I felt about not doing a Brilliant Job on the diss meant I had wasted everyone’s time. But at some point I realized: in teaching first year writing I’m helping students navigate discourses, making sense of how we come to know who and what we are in this particular moment.

The problems these grading machines solve: grading fast, more, and cheap, are quite different from the problems writing instructors, writing tutors, writing center solve: developing ideas, human conversation, learning.
