Secretary Noem has forfeited her right to lead. I’m calling on her to resign. Gregory Bovino must also be fired. No one, not an ICE agent, not a federal officer, not a president, is above the law.
Nothing so far has made me feel more like a "professor" than writing draft edits using an ipad and stylus.
I'm using ChatGPT to generate fake resumes for a class assignment. I told it to generate a couple of "really bad" ones, and I'm honestly impressed with what it came up with. "LinkedIn available upon request" is sending me.

No matter how hard people try to convince us having empathy is wrong, it is right. No matter how hard people try to convince us that diversity is a weakness, it is a strength. No matter how hard people try to convince us that love is limited, it is unlimited.
The moment every academic dreams of: I just added a picture of the panopticon to my teaching slides.

I was excited to experience some sunlight in Santa Fe. Took a short stroll in the morning, while it was still pretty cool. Turns out the sun is a deadly lazer.
Traveling to the cool desert to escape the sweltering heat of New England…
Dear all, Helen passed away at 13:21 local time. Helen would not have wanted us to be sad for a long time. All they wanted was to be remembered. They looked forward to being rid of pain and to being at rest. Helen took great comfort in you, their friends and readers. pt. 1/2

This is why you’re the dumbest motherfucker alive if you’re an academic who tries to ‘address their concerns’ these people don’t want to have a principled conversation about the appropriateness of diversity statements, professor, they want to destroy your job. You cannot meet them halfway.
Quantian@quantian.bsky.social · last yr.There is like some abstract notion that they are attacking universities because they want to pressure them over wokeness or whatever but that’s backwards. The base wants universities shut down. That is the explicit goal, they will tell you it openly if you ask them and listen.
The pact of the federal govt with universities was not a handout. It was a strategic decision to boost US leadership in technology, defense, and health. And it paid dividends. In tech, internet, in cancer drugs (for example), No other sector has invested in high risk high reward ideas like US govt.
**** Judge Sessions GRANTS BAIL/RELEASE to Rümeysa Öztürk: "The court finds that [Rümeysa Öztürk's] continued detention cannot stand."
Judge Session: I see no evidence of risk or danger of any kind. The court orders ICE to release Rümeysa Öztürk from custody IMMEDIATELY. She is free to return to her home in Massachusetts. Also free to travel within Mass and VT. I'm not going to restrict her travel, because I see no danger of flight
