I gotta say I find a lot of AI discourse around higher ed very confusing. "if ChatGPT can write your essays is college even worth it?" did people think math teachers were assigning problem sets because *they* couldn't figure out the answers?

This sums up my horror at the use of AI by students. The act of writing is how you learn.
Also students - you want to be graded based only on high stakes in person tests and presentations? You want that anxiety? Thats what using AI to write papers will get you.

George Floyd was murdered on this day five years ago.
Despite massive protests over racial injustice, police killings are sadly on the rise.
Instead of pouring more funds into our brutal system of policing, let's invest in communities. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/24/u...

Executive orders are tweets on stationery, folks!
As a reminder, executive orders—while noteworthy and significant—are basically advisory memos from the White House, as the president does not have the legal or constitutional authority to issue edicts with the force of law
This new White House executive order says that the US Attorney General is going to prevent states from implementing democratically passed laws regarding climate change and clean energy. It scarcely needs stating at this point that this is wildly, unambiguously unconstitutional. Dictator shit.

There aren’t words to describe how horrifying this is.
Trump is arresting and disappearing students with legal status just because of their political views and speech.
These are the actions of a dictator. Justice for Rumeysa NOW.

An international graduate student at Tufts University was taken into federal custody on Tuesday outside an off-campus apartment building, the university’s president said. The university was told that the student’s visa had been terminated. nyti.ms/4hRzPq1

He’s not a king. His orders don’t mean shit. Don’t comply in advance.
It's critical for everyone to remember what an Executive Order is. It is the President communicating orders to members of the executive branch. Policies to pursue, actions to take, etc. They are not laws. They are not close to being laws. They are formalized memos to employees. That's all.
