Ah, I see our Secretary of Dipshittery is doing PT and making everyone wear a stupid definitely not uniform t-shirt. I am so looking forward to this guy's ultimate downfall.

K, but history IS a discipline. It has methodologies, specialist literature, etc For some reason, history is one of the only academic disciplines that people think anyone can do because it's just reading books or something.

I’m a historian, definitely not a political scientist.

So, far, I have come up with the following definitions for my seminar: Political philosophy- How SHOULD things be? Political science: How ARE things? Political theory: WHY are things that way?

Because, random anonymous internet account named "Pooh Sticks" she IS an authority. "Appeal to authority" is not always a fallacy. Authority is a very real thing. That's why we have expert witnesses. As to the economics, I'll leave any answer to her as I am NOT an expert. See how that works?

History students: Be sure you understand your sources before you make them the centerpiece of your argument.

Are you arguing with someone who is literally an economist focused on the rental economy?

It would be absolutely hilarious if the RAF Fairford terrorists turn out to be fly tippers. A real Alice’s Restaurant situation.

I am being made to teach a Political Theory course for the Politics department (b/c reasons) and as I'm preparing my seminar it made me wonder... Are political scientists just historians with delusions of intellectual grandeur?

Re; the Cornell rapists Universities should not have police departments. Actual police should handle actual crimes. Public safety dudes with flashlights and reflective vest can stick to Aiden sneaking beer into the dorms.

Look, I don't want to be discriminatory or whatever, but it DOES look weird when the Japanese reenactors are, like, middle-agd white guys. And, I'm questioning if they really needed the round coke-bottle glasses...
