Happy start of the semester! Coming back from sabbatical and immediately facing a flood of student emails inspired me to repost this hack (I've used the accommodation letter one 10x already today).

As semesters start and you find yourself repeatedly answering emails with the same questions from students, this is my annual reminder that you can make all your frequent responses email signatures and just select them from your signature list to respond. You're welcome. #academicsky

There’s another emergency rally in NYC this morning—9am Foley Square.

Kristi Noem is going to NYC today to hold a press conference. New Yorkers are showing up in mass to tell her to get the f*ck out.

Join @handsoffnyc.bsky.social in the streets. It’s time to get loud and stay loud.

I’m at Times Square, where an emergency “No War On Venezuela” protest just took to the street. Easily a thousand people here in real-feel 20°F weather.

“No more coups, no more wars, Venezuela’s not yours!”

“No boots on the ground no bombs in the air, U.S. out of everywhere!”

Looks like another good day to start screaming in the streets.

What is your plan, @schumer.senate.gov? This requires more than a strongly-worded letter.

AI slop proliferating in journal letters-to-editor. Very interesting analysis. Unfortunately, little discussion about the cost to human editors and authors of original work who process and respond to slop.

I am an AI hater. This is considered rude, but I do not care, because I am a hater.

Without ACA subsidies, a couple in Watertown, MA earning $85,000 a year could see their health care premium increase from $1,394 to $3,194 per month.

This is what Democrats are fighting to prevent—and what Republicans shut down the government over.
