It’s easier to just teach (& to use) the proper jargon, the buzzwords & code phrases that serve as passwords into the private clubs of each discipline. Well-structured essays are HARD.

Writing well - making cogent arguments, without using strawmen or blatant cherry-picking to “prove” your points - certainly isn’t taught in higher ed. In part because such a low percentage of academics can do this well consistently.

One of my most obnoxious beliefs is that the skill of making rigorous arguments in writing is a technical one and isn’t something most academic training programs in most fields actually train their students in.

I actually completely agree with the criticisms Nico Harrison had about Luka and at the same time think you never ever trade a generational talent like Luka.

An obvious and catastrophic mistake and all the Mavs fans know it.

Two housewives chatting through the window in 1655. One is about to lose her salmon steaks to a very fortunate dog! By Nicolaes Maes, whose day is today.

Can she be a bad commander and still be heroic? I guess it's possible in theory, but is she both?

It just never really grabbed me the way it seems to grab others. And while Luna and Jones are good enough actors to make their characters sing, the relationship btw them is strangely paced and underexplained IMO. But I'm in the minority on this, I know.

Neither as good as the adorers think (for the Canto Bright scene alone) nor as bad as the haters think. I appreciate what Johnson was trying to do but found it mostly unsuccessful. @loudpenitent.bsky.social had a good thread recently on what a 🗑️ character Holdo is, too.

hahahaha I missed that

That’s fair. I like Rogue One less than most and Solo more than most but I won’t die on that hill.

A thing that happens a lot when you have any kind of bioethics training is that you get asked to opine on, or teach, or facilitate discussions regarding situations that are not ethically murky in the least, which does not engender confidence in the judgment of the person making the request.
