I saw a meme last night about a generational divide marker of folks who cannot sit through videos and want the words typed out because they read faster than they can watch a video and I felt that deep in my heart. I'm happy for folks who love video, but I hate them. Give me text. Let me read.

By refusing to stand with @algreen.house.gov in support of Trump's impeachment and removal from office, Members of Congress are as good as complicit in his lawless destruction of the Constitution and the rule of law. @jessicadenson07.bsky.social #ImpeachTrump

I would love to get paid to read books all day.

(The number of books I've been paid to read or read while *on* the job? A giant fuckin' Z E R O.)
What’s the worst question someone can ask after you tell them your profession? For linguists, it’s definitely “how many languages do you speak?”, but I’m curious what else is happening to the rest of y’all out there?!

Incompetent is the kind interpretation of this man’s work. Cowardly and partisan is probably more accurate. And he seems to think he’s more intelligent than that paper’s former subscribers.
I think the exec editor of the @nytimes.com continues to misread much of the criticism of his newspaper. For example, many critics are begging the Times to stop putting Trump lies in headlines without facts or context. That's not partisan, it's good journalism.

This is insane. Any material a prof thinks is necessary but isn’t for formal licensing has to get the signoff of the chair, then dean, then provost?

This is an absolutely mockery of academic freedom.

I feel like Texas Tech HAS to lose its accreditation for this, no? It’s preposterous.
TX Tech has a flow chat for guidance on what can be taught in the university system. Two things:
1. Very little content seems to be permitted. This is partisan control of the curriculum.
2. I would not enjoy teaching under these conditions, but I really would not want to be a Chair or Dean.

NEW: Another purge of immigration judges just happened, this time in New York City. This latest purge includes one of the smartest people I know, an immigration judge who dutifully served on the bench for 10 years. She was unceremoniously fired in violation of civil service laws.

yeah no, it's not a reason to homeschool. it's a reason to show up to a public school board meeting and demand representation for all.

what these folks WANT is for you to homeschool and steal public taxpayer money for your private vouchers.
Yet another reason to homeschool.
Which parents are the ones who get "parental rights?" In Bellbrook-Sugarcreek School District (OH), it's those who want to ban books featuring any "sexuality content" or "gender ideology." Inside the school board's educationally-destructive new policy:

What a fantastic perk! Great for the holiday season. The cold weather has definitely brought a lot of ice to North Carolina.
BTW: Everyone who orders anything from our store gets a free whistle. Comes in handy this winter. Because ice is everywhere.
Perfect gift for sci-fi film buffs. Tech Noir focuses on James Cameron's development as a visual artist, from childhood sketches to designs for Roger Corman to his own work as a Hollywood director. Huge book, BTW. You might even say it's...titanic. mzs.press/Tech-Noir-Th...

This is what the so-called "Secretary of War" is tweeting amid reports that his department ordered a second strike to make sure they killed survivors of a boat they attacked that they allege with no proof carries drugs (which doesn't justify bombing them even it were true)
