I got to go back to duke to give a talk named after Nancy Armstrong & Len Tennenhouse, and I could barely keep it together trying to explain how @zugenia.bsky.social @profchander.bsky.social & so many others are a kind of extended kinship network of ppl who’ve benefited from Nancy’s partisan backing

On a scale of 1 to 10, how angry are you about the things you’re compelled to care about amidst the inevitable collapse of the capitalist empire

I think one of the biggest mistakes we’ve made in academia over the last few years was treating tenure and academic freedom as a guaranteed right and not a labor relation. Had more understood it as the latter perhaps we would have been better prepared to protect it

“I’m emotionally shellshocked right now,” said one professor in the Texas Tech system. “What does it say about academic freedom? It says we don’t have it.”

Academia.edu has always been a scam to gamify & monetize the psychic damage of twilight-phase academic neoliberalism: this person looked you up, that person mentioned you, your work matters. Intellectual as individual brand-builder. The rights stuff is awful but the basic concept is bad enough

“You also now must fear one another. Under the new normal, a single student can record a class discussion, fail to protect your identity, and post it online in violation of the safeguards provided by Student Rule 24 and FERPA, dragging you & your classmates into a national scandal without consent.”

The anti-trans right heavily praised Gordon Guyatt as the “godfather” of evidence based medicine.

He worked for SEGM and was responsible for their GRADE reviews.

Now he disavows them, says evidence supports transgender youth care.

Great coverage from Henry carnell.

For years, medical professionals and transgender advocates have been saying the "Society for Evidence-based Gender Medicine" was not following the principles of evidenced-based medicine.

Now the "godfather" of evidence-based medicine is leveraging the same claim against them. (1/)
