“In May, the Associated Press found that at least 10 detainees had died by suicide since President Trump took office — a pace that far exceeds the growth in the detainee population. ICE did not respond to requests for comment.”

This man is a monster. He seeks out women survivors because he hates them. And he hates them because he hates himself. He has harassed me and other women survivors many times over the years. It must end. He should never have a job anywhere.

It really gives the game away when the anti trans orgs are calling the election of the neo nazi party in Germany a "glimmer of hope."
​A screenshot of an online article headline from "Inspecting Gender" by Genspect. The main heading reads: "Germany: A Glimmer of Hope for Sex Realists?" Below the title, the summary text asks: "Is the victory of the AfD in Germany a dark day for democracy or a glimmer of hope for sex realists? By David Allison." The bottom metadata displays the Genspect logo, "5 hours ago," and a "Listen" audio option button. In the top right corner, there is a teal "Subscribe" button alongside a circular profile avatar.

load can get a course release to do research. The Advanced Research Directive fellowship, which offered a 1 semester teaching release, has already been defunded several yrs ago. Now the Wolfe fellowship may also be gone. How much is CUNY spending on AI bullshit? Does CUNY want research? 2/2

I'm having to deal with AI at work now and it's exhausting. I *like* doing research. I enjoy searching for information -- that's why I work in libraries! Why would I want to give that up? Why would I offload the cognitive work I enjoy onto an algorithm??

This isn't about me thinking AI is an insult to life itself, this is about students coming to a school to improve their circumstances and instead getting shunted into a system that's designed to reduce their independence and charge them for things they are more than capable of learning to do.
