I just did a search for "Huron Consulting" on bluesky for "reasons" and most of the posts are like this. Did not realize one company was the cause of almost all of the higher ed damage and destruction of recent years. One post called for some investigative reporting of this company. Much needed.

"The growing mobility of capital increasingly allowed it to avoid making concessions that might have supported legitimation, while the marginalization of parties, elections...weakened the state’s capacity to secure popular consent for accumulation."

Homemade sign seen just now on NC62 in *deep rural* north-central NC.

How come this isn’t just fair game as “training data.”

One last point about trusting machines over African people, writing and scholarship:

The fact that African studies programs specifically are being targeted and dismantled around America is also something to contend with.

It is really chilling to see how quickly Black, Caribbean, and African writers and academics have become the global face of AI use and accusations of plagiarism.

For such a serious charge, @vauhinivara.bsky.social's
article rests on...a Pangram scan.

if Trump does manage to catalyze the destruction of fossil capital (politically speaking) the Marxist histories of this era written 40 years from now are going to be magnificent

When the AI bubble pops, we can’t repeat past corporate bail outs. We need to be ready with policies that protect ordinary people and hold tech execs accountable. We also need to talk about nationalizing AI companies — or maybe even abolishing them altogether…

Being GenX/Millennial is such a trip. In our lifetimes, we saw people our age getting wild criminal penalties for pirating music and now have to sit and watch as companies gobble up our work with impunity.

Still trying to understand how Napster got shut down, but Anthropic is going public and still hasn’t paid us authors yet after stealing our work.

Aaron Swartz, coding prodigy and hacktivist who helped develop RSS and was a co-founder of Reddit, died by suicide after facing $1 million in fines and 35 years in prison for felony charges, just for downloading pdfs of research papers with the intention of making them accessible to the public.

It’s easy to do the right thing when it doesn’t cost you anything. It’s harder to do the right thing in cases like this, where it will cost Sally Rooney quite a lot. A really uncommon display of principle. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026...

🧵When ICE killed Silverio Villegas González on 9/12/2025, they'd only just gotten to the area & I knew lots of ppl weren't paying attention yet. I printed out fliers with information & resources & brought them to local businesses, esp. restaurants, & did the same at the Farmers Market the next day.

Sen. Angus King says he sat down and made a list of everything Putin could possibly want from an American president. His conclusion about Trump? “This guy, this president, is doing almost all of them.” King then goes through the list. WATCH.
