STOP LETTING JD VANCE MEET POPES

I can't say what I want to on here but let me just say that my raggedy Catholic self will pray for this Pope because he can't go before THAT MAN.

Statement from Robert E. Hall: Recipient of the Nobel Price in Economic Sciences.

My favorite spam emails I get are the ones insulting me. Just got one that was like “wow looks like Adequate didn’t make the New York Times best seller list…again.” 😂😂😂 roasted by AI is a future I don’t need

If we're being technical, the mushroom was a broth not a stock, but no one likes pedants

Y'all, I made homemade chicken soup today for my sick husband, from my own homemade stocks (half mushroom stock, half chicken stock) and it is so fucking fire. I can't quit eating it My husband really struck gold with me, not going to lie

I didn't know who Kacey Musgraves and now I adore her

Yeah! I don’t begrudge someone having a job! It’s just, well, when you’ve routinely attacked people for minor discretions against your purity codes and rallied your mob of followers to bully others into suicidal ideation and exile…you probably shouldn’t work at the war crimes factory lol

Omg this had me enraptured for days. I still think about it sometimes.

Ana Mardoll turning out to be a nepo baby who works for Lockheed Martin is my #1. Perhaps not stupid, just outrageously delicious

Today’s characters include the woman who shouted “what the fuck is Trump doing?!?!?” while on the stair climber, the silver fox Italian wearing booty shorts that showed off his ridiculously impressive VPL, and the 3 college age boys who haven’t, to my knowledge, done a single exercise in an hour

Next research project is going to be an ethnography of Planet Fitnesses in suburban New Jersey, especially during the daytime

I think comprhet either needs to abandon the monograph or scholars need more time and resources to dedicate to writing them. Something’s gotta give. (Brought to you by someone disappointed for the third time this year by a monograph that should’ve just been two good articles…)

100% I have more to say on this topic (and published a bit of it in comp studies) but agreed: existing bad pedagogy is what made students able to use AI en masse in the first place possible

I'm a community college prof from Ohio who stood up for trans students' rights to an education free of harassment. When white nationalists ran me out of my home in March 2025, I couldn't get my mayor, governor, state rep @greglandsman.bsky.social, or my shitty GOP Senators to give a hit.

I'm wondering if the Venn Diagram of teachers who complain about students not knowing how to read and teachers who stopped assigning texts in their classes is just a circle...
