This week, my "impostor syndrome" died forreal.

Except it means foregrounding the reality that the playing field is NOT level. I really do have to be twice as good to get half as much.
Grad Students: The Larry Summers news should shed any shred of imposter syndrome you've felt in academia. Clearly, academics* can be far from perfect (at everything from spelling to relationships to human decency) and still make it all the way to the top of ivory tower.

Why would you settle for AI slop when we can do shit like THIS

Dear Jim,
First of all, I *love* this idea! Unfortunately, I spoke with Legal and identified a few issues with this approach. For starters…
Well, it's a little clearer now why billionaires are so invested in technology that produces better written emails.

Unsurprisingly, there's a bunch of other potential presidential crimes revealed in the Epstein emails, like mortgage fraud, regular old timey fraud, and a bunch of other financial crimes.

The concept of whiteness as "deputized" (h/t W.E.B. DuBois) is important for understanding the current moment.

The story of a college student calling ICE on service workers is not an aberration.

TED always smelled very fishy to me.
