@catsofyore.bsky.social Yes! This is very incomplete but amplifying would help fill in gaps 😊 Teamwork makes the dream work!

This morning's quick reminder: generative AI is a natural resource-guzzling plagiarism machine that exploits creatives to enrich tech bros.

Do not use it to create art or writing.

Do not conduct "fun" experiments with it to show us how awful it is.

There is no ethical use for AI.

Let it die.

Bsky is giving me back old Twitter.

Who is going to be the brave genius to give us back desktop GTalk? I loved the tiny windows and how it didn't waste data with any gimmicks. It was perfect

I cannot wrap my head around the MLA's decision to reject the *vote* to divest, citing financial concerns. They're perfectly aware that the overwhelming majority of members will vote to divest.

This leadership decided that the existence of the MLA takes priority over democracy and human rights.

I feel this in my bones, as I think about how long and tedious it will be to get reimbursed for #MLA25 expenses.
I desperately want an AI that submits travel reports for me so I can get reimbursed for my $12 breakfast without spending way more of my time than that $12 is worth to do it.

Is that what's being built or what I'm being offered? Of course not.

The remarks by the current president of the #MLA reveal just how morally bankrupt, cowardly, and unimaginative the organization is. Embarrassingly so. Cancelled my membership.
Denied vote on pro-BDS resolution, MLA members protest
The backlash continues to the Modern Language Association Executive Council’s fall decision not to let members vote on a pro-Palestinian resolution.

After traveling for 21 hours to return from the #MLA25, I arrived home. Exhausted, physically and mentally.

I hope I'll attend again in Toronto next year because boycott won't be necessary because our leadership will get it together and end their passive complicity with genocide.

*Not* a rhetorical question.

One thing I definitely WANT to do is get a review of the recent Cambridge Companion to Manga and Anime into a peer-reviewed journal.

Thoughts on journals I should consider?
