Thank you!

I am a PhD sociologist who works outside academia and I approve this message.

Common Ground on Animal Ethics – When Anthropology Meets Philosophy The workshop will feature keynote dialogues and paper presentations.

Don't miss this in London on 30 April and 1 May - attempts at "Philosophy meets Anthropology" dialogue are always 🔥🔥🔥.

People who teach American pragmatism. My understanding is Jane Addams get added to the standard readings of the tradition sometimes, if so are there any particular essays by her?

Hoping I get a good grade in "grad school" something that is both normal to want and possible to achieve

Wait are you sure? I think you might be rushing things here Sky this might not go well

i've tweeted about this before but in grad school i literally had a dream that a scoreboard was added to the department lounge for this purpose

Nothing makes me feel more autistic than playing a video game with dialogue options, and I think I’m choosing the “measured and reasonable” dialogue option, only to suddenly have all the characters hate me because that was actually the “judgemental asshole” option

I just think if the government was to become this unpopular this quickly, they might as well have done it by increasing taxes on median+ earners.

It's unfortunate, but how else are we supposed to rank them on the mandatory curve?

Just a reminder to all grad students that we definitely DO NOT keep a "Grad Student Power Ranking" in the faculty lounge where we update your ranking weekly based on performance (along with little arrows indicating your movement relative to last week). Just something faculty, again, do not do

I felt SOO cleansed after four Norwegians told me what my flaws were

Idk man, I just leave the lists lying openly on my desk every time I meet with a student. You know, to show dominance. You gotta do what you gotta do as a minority (Dutch) in academia

Maybe HMRC should expand the loan charge project and shut another umbrella corporation down

the first project nemesis test subject was an irs agent who didn't figure out why it was called the t-virus until it was too late

iirc the fact that Umbrella had a lot of USG contracts was one of the major reasons it got away with a lot of its crimes. Which is beginning to look more plausible these days unfortunately

There's some IRS accountant who could save untold lives by just taking a serious look at Umbrella Corp's tax filings. No way are they on the level.

i do not wish to contemplate the slaanesh cultist minions

I stress constraints more than most and I am still certain that Starmer's operation has made massive, avoidable errors, and that his position has probably been untenable for some time. They have blown a major opportunity. That is on them, and him, and Labour supporters should not be forgiving.

I am absolutely getting outed as casual scum lmao

With posts like these you truly are the GLaDOS of academia. You can put that in your bio.

the fencing visualization system i worked on with rhizomatiks
is coming to los angeles this weekend 🤗

choose your faction:
- I made a vape that's also a hammer
- Hammers are going to become god & change everything
- I tried holding the hammer by the head and it didn't work, this is bullshit
- Hammers are useful tools sometimes
- Hammers? You mean murder-tools, as seen in the documentary The Raid 2?

I find the whole “no one could last a whole term as PM now” argument so tiresome. I do think the information environment encourages impatience in supporters, but I think not lasting a full term after winning 411 seats would ultimately be on him

Your fault:

Over 18 months as PM. Has collapsed Labour's polling share from low 40s in early 2024 to high teens now. Policy agenda remains unclear. Has fired 2 chiefs of staff, 2 cabinet secs, 4 comms directors, head of FO. Poor relationship with Cabinet and MPs. But somehow this is social media... 🤔

Also they have social media in Canada and Carney's doing fine.

They have it in Spain and Sanchez has been PM since 2018.

And in France where Macron's been President since 2017.
