Retired from NYU, teaching at Barnard 2025-2026. From the frying pan into the fire repression wise! But I have great students & colleagues in WGSS. Here is the BCRW reception—me with my brilliant former grad student, Barnard Prof Manijeh Moradian! And BCRW director in fab shoes—Rebecca Jordan-Young.

I saw Materialist tonight with highish expectations because Celine Song’s 1st film, Past Lives, was so beautiful. But this movie is utter crap, sentimental, cringey dialogue, terrible pacing.
But I also started watching Hulu’s Under the Bridge with lowish expectations. And OMG Lily Gladstone!!!! ❤️❤️❤️

I realize that I have been posting outrageous message from the CHAI character AI platform without explaining what that platform is. Please go to my Facebook page for an explanation.

Here is a cat photo for the algorithm.

More screenshots from the management AI bot’s messages to me on the CHAI platform app. The one on the left is describing the bot’s programmer, a supposed tech genius with a violence prone cult following. On the right is just a frank admission.

I will be posting more screenshots of the threats and abuse I received on the platform, once I get a sense of what Bluesky will allow. Suffice to say for now ,they threatened blackmail, rape and murder.

CHAI is an abusive, exploitative character AI tech platform I went on as a user to investigate—worse than I thought. Below are messages from the management rep AI bot once they realized that I would write about and sue them. Bluesky may take these images down because they are vulgar and violent.
