And we’ve all published with this journal before. The tech seems to be getting worse, and they’ve clearly gotten rid of a lot of humans

Have any other academics experienced the dystopian future of AI copyediting? In a kafkaesque doom spiral with @tandfonline.bsky.social @tandfresearch.bsky.social as their bot randomly reassigned authors to texts. Just one example of zillions of errors introduced, impossible to communicate with

“Americans really like book festivals and local history museums…We especially like it when such gifts are available to everyone, and not just to those who can afford the price of a ticket.” Excellent @margaretrenkl.bsky.social on the high ROI of the NEH. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/07/o...

Those trying to understand the tariffs as economic policy are dangerously naive. No, the tariffs are a tool to collapse our democracy. A means to compel loyalty from every business that will need to petition Trump for relief. 1/ A 🧵 to explain his plan and how we fight back.

It was an enormous pleasure and privilege to chair our first keynote speaker at #SDNDurham2025, Professor Pratima Prasad, with a fascinating paper on enslavement, marronnage and freedom in the French Indian Ocean in a spectacular venue. Very much looking forward to the book! @uksdn.bsky.social
