Working on a crochet wavy, ocean-themed blanket. Regular crochet is my go-to for big projects. This one is queen-sized and uses pretty blue-green colors to brighten up my life during the autumnal and winter blues I experience every year.
(I’m already through my first wave of SAD for the season.)

With classes underway, I’ve switched from essays to exams. But with the death of the student essay (RIP, slain by ChatGPT), there’s a larger human tragedy: an erosion of critical cognition and the creation of two sharply divided classes of people: those who learn how to think and those who don’t:
The Death of the Student Essay—and the Future of Cognition
One professor's reflections on the end of an era, as AI tools such as ChatGPT have murdered the student essay (RIP). Here's why that threatens the future of human cognition—and how to save ourselves.

Exactly like Israel, they’re specifically targeting journalists.

Happened in Chicago today, with multiple journalists shot in the face on purpose. While shooting film of the people shooting them in the face.

They may also start targeting journalist family members to be cruel, just as the IDF did.

UPDATE: The man ICE violently arrested has been identified as Job Arias-Mendoza. Two weeks ago he published a video to his social media accounts of ICE handcuffing a man in front of a liquor store—it has more than 200,000 views on TikTok. streetcarsuburbs.news/arias-mendoz...
NEW: ICE agents violently arrested a man in a busy Hyattsville, MD intersection this week, at one point brandishing guns and pointing them at bystanders.

I spoke to multiple witnesses—including a local priest whose church is a sanctuary for undocumented people: www.thehandbasket.co/p/ice-agents...

Since many of us are cancelling streaming services, now might also be a good time to support writers and artists. Times are extremely tough for creatives, so why not buy a book, commission an art piece, sign up for a Patreon, tip your favorite creators. Everything helps.

An old pic of a project that is now 95% completed (like most of my WIPs). I loved working on this Tunisian crochet sweater, holding together black worsted weight yarn and deep teal mohair. I just don’t want to do the buttons ☠️

What if #gbbo took place in space, with a dash of the diaspora experience & a seasoning of sapphic romance?!

Climate optimism! I did gain some hope in hearing that some of the worst possibilities have already been avoided. I will try to nurture that feeling.
UN chief António Guterres says the world is on the brink of climate breakthrough. More than nine in 10 renewable power projects commissioned in 2024 were less expensive than their fossil fuel equivalent. Solar was 41% cheaper on average and land wind 53% cheaper. buff.ly/EWOfRu6

I see grocery/takeout shaming discourse going around again, so this is your periodic historian reminder that cooking from scratch daily while working has never been sustainable, and for millennia everyone either relied on takeout & restaurants or ate in huge households w/ big dorm-like group dining.

Fuck fireworks, anyone who buts them, and anyone who sets them off. Your 30 seconds of excitement aren’t worth so many animals (including humans) feeling this way. Fuck this holiday
This is Myko. He's terrified of fireworks. But with the help of his Boomie Roomie, he's able to get through them. 13/10

This BookBub survey on authors and AI use says that "74% of the authors who use generative AI do not disclose their AI use to readers."

I want to be very clear that I DO NOT use generative AI in my books. Share your work here if that's true for you also!

We surveyed more than 1,200 authors to learn how they're thinking about generative AI as it relates to their work. Here's what they had to say.

My favorite kind of book. Rakesfall is on my TBR!!!
@vajra.me's multi award-winning THE SAINT OF BRIGHT DOORS & Nebula award-nominated RAKESFALL defy conventions of genre, narrative structure & language.

Prepare to ask yourself "What on earth did I just read?" - but in the very best way!

In honor of the premier of season 2 of “The Last Of Us” on @hbomax.bsky.social, here are some pics of Cordyceps militaris, the common species of Cordyceps that occurs in North America. This species tends to infect larvae in the soil and does not “zombify” its host #tlou #lastofus

I’ve been avoiding crochet HARD the past couple weeks. I miss it but can’t make myself do something I don’t want to do. I will come back to it soon, I’m sure. 💞
