I’m part of this chorus and both the Kennedy Center and the NSO have tried to cover their asses claiming it was cancelled due to “artist availability” and/or “financial issues” but this is blatantly untrue based on what we know. We will be performing the musical during World Pride regardless so 🖕🏼

Like so many of you, my friend @maggiesmithpoet.bsky.social and I have been having a conversation about this country’s future.

Now we’re turning our dialogue into a book featuring poems and essays from Marlon James, Alexander Chee, Ashley C. Ford, Chase Strangio, Imani Perry and more!

Guardian vs. NYT. You know who's going to call things by their true names and who's not even gonna give you syrup with that waffle.

So the fun thing about being a adoptee (especially if you aren’t yt)🥚 is that we don’t get to have any rights to our actual OG birth certificates and not everyone even gets the most basic info about their biological families. So like we can’t prove that our bio parents were actually citizens

Weird that we have to say this, but the government doesn’t get to decide what gender a person is.

This week on #VibeCheck, we talk about the US Surgeon General’s call for warning labels on alcohol and we try to make sense of our cultural obsession with surveilling each other on social people.

Also, I read a poem by Patricia Smith about the evacuation orders ahead of Hurricane Katrina.

If you're wondering, "Did I do enough today?" You did.

If you're wondering, "Did I do enough this year?" You did.

You're here. You're at the finish of the year, the day, the hour. The bad news is that as you are still breathing, you have to do it all again. But that's the good news, too.

This is what's so baffling about so many suggestions for AI in the humanities classroom: they mistake the product for the point. Writing outlines and essays is important not because you need to make outlines and essays but because that's how you learn to think with/through complex ideas.
I'm sure many have said this before but I'm reading a student-facing document about how students might use AI in the classroom (if allowed) and one of the recs is: use AI to make an outline of your reading! But ISN'T MAKING THE OUTLINE how one actually learns?

It’s so fun to have a true, genuine folk hero emerge in 2024. A mysterious stranger whose action represents the frustrations, hopes, and dreams of the people. I hope we never learn anything more about him.
