Also the feedback from the grad students was extremely thorough, professional, and respectful even while the student called their trans peers and instructors demonic!!
The essay is available online and it’s poorly written. All these articles say the student cited the Bible but she didn’t! She mentioned the “Bible says” but didn’t say where or give context that supported her claim. Citations need both. It earned its low grade.
Oklahoma University has placed a grad student instructor on admin leave for failing a psychology paper on gender for citing *the Bible* as a source of empirical evidence.
In response, OU has placed on instructor on admin leave citing, get this, the FIRST AMENDMENT.

One can be "just asking questions;" I can be "just blocking them."
The most precious commodity you have is your attention. You don’t have to waste it on poor-faith debates or arguments with strangers if you don’t think they’ll be productive. You can prioritize the things that matter to you and make your life richer.

The commonalities are access to weapons, living in the USA, no/low access to mental healthcare, and being veterans so we should outlaw all four of those, right?
One reason I raise this is bc Kristi Noem now says that Lakanwal was "radicalized" in the US (she has to say that or she herself is complicit in failing to vet him properly).
But then how is he different from other Afghan/Iraq veterans who murder?

Ah forgot to ask y'all the provocative key question:
If more cops don't even reduce the murder rate in the most violent, highest homicide, most dangerous neighborhoods in Baltimore and Chicago...
Then...
What are we paying *billions* of dollars for? 🤡

I've shared on here before, why more cops do not and cannot reduce the murder rate in US cities.
I've shared that criminal justice reformers have known what does work, and has worked in dozens of US cities. It's now driving record low homicide in Chicago and Baltimore♥️🕊️
Now let's talk cop killings

I think it’s pretty clear at this point that one of the main impacts of LLMs is to disrupt thinking: to make it so that far too many people never properly learn how to do it, and then to control the output so there are thoughts that people never learn how to think.

real question: if you are subsidizing something for people who are at 7x the federal poverty level, that number should be raised, no? Like time to admit that your threshold for poverty is too low.
I think @proptermalone.bsky.social can declare victory on his prediction that the GOP was eager to find a way to extend ACA subsidies (even if they've gone about it in a VERY dumb way). Two year extension + following details in the White House plan.

Since February, according to my latest analysis, almost 600,000 Black women have been economically sidelined. The November 20, 2025, Jobs Report makes clear this isn’t a blip. It’s a structural crisis. That is not a recovery. It is a redistribution of opportunity.

I once knew a Federal bank examiner, and one time someone asked him why we had to KEEP inspecting banks over and over. He basically said every new batch of business school grads invents bank fraud from first principles.

The underlying cause of every bubble - debt masquerading as financial innovation - depends on not just short financial memory & speculative neophytism, but reinventing jargon of finance, like how each generation of kids has new ways to say same things.
