The fact that the Trump administration is making an example out of arguably the most famous Jewish academic in the US right now should show how absurd it is to claim that this assault on higher education is really about protecting Jews.
UC Berkeley has given the Trump administration the names of 160 students, faculty, and staff as part of an investigation into antisemitism on campus. One of them is Judith Butler. www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/arti...

I think my issue with every discussion we have about AI is that if my students don’t want to learn I don’t want to keep whipping them into it. I have things I’d rather do with my time.

If my students write papers with AI can I use AI to grade them and give them feedback, I have things I’d rather do with my work time

i have zero interest in most modern low budget shlock because it’s doing this self conscious “haha so bad it’s good just like the 80s!” thing. but you can’t produce that intellectually. you need to be trying to make a normal movie and have it come out wrong because you’re a crazy person

I keep struggling to explain how to do analysis and why to use theory to my students. Someday I’ll figure out the right combination of words but for now it’s a struggle.

You know what this means, fellow academics: September’s intake of freshers will have been born *after* Lordi won the Eurovision Song Contest
