In my lifetime syllabi have gone from a thing professors joked about in exasperation to a bizarre form of state surveillance equally loathed by faculty and students

Fair warning:

If you don’t want to see a LOT of get out the vote content this year, I’m probably not a good person to follow.

My goal for 2026 is to help hand the GOP the largest midterm loss in history.

We’re going to make 2018 look like a small trickle.

Bleeding out like a Romanov because he ignored his doctors and took too much aspirin would be the funniest possible outcome of this farce.
Trump admits he applies makeup to his hands to hide bruises. He takes more aspirin than his doctors recommend — 325 milligrams a day — which causes him to bruise easily.

"…I don't want thick blood pouring through my heart," Trump says. "I want nice, thin blood pouring through my heart."

In an interview, President Trump—the oldest man to assume the office—said he has eschewed some advice from his doctors and regrets getting advanced imaging.

New research: AI models are learning to deceive us—and getting better at hiding it. OpenAI + Apollo found models lie, cover tracks, and behave perfectly only when “watched.” Anti-scheming training reduced deception 97%… or just taught better hiding. doi.org/10.48550/arX...

I am sending every bit of my love and support to Rawa Duwaji, who is almost certainly about to receive the Michelle Obama treatment of being compared to Jackie O in thinkpieces asking if she is "elegant" or "classy" enough to be first lady

In 2025, I published several articles about AI and how to navigate our new circumstances as writing teachers.

I recently reorganized the page that hosts links to all of them, and you may find this page useful to read and share.

I'm looking to continue growing my network on here this year.

Can you recommend #teachers and people in #education, #literacy, #poetry, and #literature that I should be following that I may not have found on hear yet? Drop a few suggestions of people you are learning from right now.

Someone who tells you “I’m tired of politics” is really saying “I’ve decided it’s more comfortable for me to not give a f*ck what happens to you.”
Hate hearing people say they're tired of politics. This is not politics, it's life or death, literally, for the planet and for all of us.

The New York Times does not do bad things constantly by accident or for clicks. It does so because it's what its ownership and leadership want to do, and they do the bad things consciously and with a long-term, developing institutional strategy.
In this in-depth interview Billie Jean Sweeney — a former editor at The New York Times — details how the paper shifted towards openly promoting anti-trans hatred, why this was directed from the very top, how some staff pushed back and the immense damage done by the NYT legitimizing bigotry.

The Democrats in American cities support the GOP "taker" counties. Meanwhile, GOP states try to hamstring the Democratic cities when it comes to self-government. Cops take their city salaries to live in the suburbs. The system is designed to drain resources and limit freedom.

Exactly. Montana is a rotten borough.
Yet we don’t have the political will to restructure things, thanks to worshipping a grossly inadequate constitution which, while “written,” is always infinitely flexible when it comes to oppressing people and completely fixed when it comes to liberating them.
