1/2 The absurd conclusion of all this GenAI stuff is faculty creating courses entirely w AI; students completing assignments w agentive AI; faculty grading w AI. No humans need be changed in this process. No learning will be required. Easy peasy.

“The last days of social media might be the first days of something more human: a web that remembers why we came online in the first place — not to be harvested but to be heard, not to go viral but to find our people, not to scroll but to connect.”

On the belief that I should not allow the perfect to be the enemy of the good, I got a Pfizer covid vaccine rather than waiting for Novovax. I’m afraid they are going to take them away in Indiana, b/c of our administration’s fealty to the orange menace, so I decided not to wait

An experience at a campus theater production made me think about higher ed as practicing being in society. I know this is not news! But it struck me forcefully, and in a great way. My latest Substack post:

It’s time to shut down the government. Democrats have weeks to prepare about how to make the case to the people. Watch how Pres Bartlet did it in The West Wing.

They lie, steal, cheat, boast, destroy, even kill. #TheReckoningWillCome and we’ll clean up our house, de-MAGAify, the way the Germans denazified. Sooner would be good. There will be one defector, then another, and it will accelerate. Gradually, then all at once.

For all the people, especially Democratic leaders, who keep saying, "Trump can't do that! It's illegal!"

Authoritarians can do anything they want. They don't care about laws, order, rules, or civility.

Once they have power, they flex it.

I hope Dems finally understand this.

The labor market is deteriorating!

For the first time in four years, the economy lost jobs.

Our economy is in the toilet right now and everything in the grocery store is higher priced than it was during the pandemic.

This is what losing looks like! Trump’s economy sucks!
