Did I forget mine at home today? Yes, yes I did. Am I listening to video out loud for everyone to hear? No. No I am not. Because I’m not a jack*ss.

It’s called headphones. Wear them. You’re on the subway with other humans
🧵A thread worth reading
Every day I wake up confused by how we managed to let AI slop destroy everything this quickly and I know the answer is because it‘s just an extension of so many other ills but it‘s a cancer fed by ignorance

I’m having my students teach a lesson this semester. It is their research project but it requires them to share their knowledge with people other than me. And they have to create activities to do with their peers. I also have them write a reflection on the experience
I miss you friend! 🧡🧡🧡
Literally what I was thinking as I scrolled the timeline.
yes you fucking morons free preschool for everyone or it becomes just "free preschool for the poors" and then you call them leeches and ask for tax breaks when really we want free preschool for everyone because we want smart well adjusted kids why is this so hard?

See you there!
Attended @baruch.cuny.edu’s Admitted Students Day yesterday as a faculty panelist and it really got me excited about the fall semester!
One of my favorite topics to talk about. In person, at conventions on panels, and especially in podcasts!
Thanks @itsafandomthingpod.bsky.social for giving us the opportunity to geek out about this topic!
I always enjoy @tanyacook.bsky.social ‘s takes on this as well!
Listen to me talk about my new K-Drama obsession! And check out #thekingsaffection after you do!
Well I’m glad it wasn’t just a complete lovefest for it!
You’ll have to let us know. I couldn’t bring myself to attend 😬
Zero. The gift is in the giving. Not in the receiving or keeping.
Love, Simon maybe (although I prefer the spinoff show Love, Victor, but that’s not a movie)
you go to college to make your brain a more interesting place to live
The only purpose of education is education itself. To a create an intelligent informed society that can manage its own government. Job training isn’t that.
My dad was a theater professor and his take was that you go college to learn how to learn. That’s what the Humanities do. I got a BA in Medieval Studies and an MA in English (Medieval and Renaissance). I’m a software engineer. (Latin isn’t that different from coding.)
I agree wholeheartedly. My life is much fuller thanks to the humanities classes I took at university.
I get yelled at for saying this but for many hundreds of years people went to university not to get diplomas or be employable but because immersion in the humanities was considered foundational to a good life, and school must return to its original purpose: the joy of learning.
Sure wish NBC/Peacock had commentary on the #paralympic alpine skiing. Seems like they don’t care as much about these games. There are literally 6 sports, you’d think they could send 6 people to cover the games.
It should be a mess unless it’s your final draft. Get that mess out of your brain and onto a page. Then clean it up after 🧡
Watching my students take a written quote analysis exam and the amount of shaking out of their hands reminds me of how little they write by hand on the regular!

We cannot process what our society won't allow us to oppose.
If we cannot effectively protest war, genocide, street executions, and lack of healthcare, and can't afford time off for maternity/paternity leave, how can we expect to handle grief? Capitalism demands productivity.
It is ethical to NOT use AI. There. I taught them.
