Oh wow

Students using AI is definitely the thing that is going to break me. Not even failing grades work as a deterrent.

the one thing i genuinely did not anticipate from this administration was its vicious, know nothing hostility to any and everything that might even be adjacent to science and scientific research. they genuinely one to destroy the entirety of the nation’s research capacity. and for what, exactly?

Rick Steves Talks Travel, Cannabis and Freedom The celebrated PBS television host’s plant advocacy is legendary as is his take on the current state of international cannabis.

I’m a hardworking, taxpaying, churchgoing, grandkid-raising American citizen. And if I work all day long and want to go home, smoke a joint & just stare at the fireplace for 3 hours…that’s my civil liberty. ‪

Yes. I am right. I am seeing how Chat GPT is ruining students critical thinking and writing skills in real time. It is not the future. It is a tool designed to render the populace helpless, to make people doubt their innate intelligence, and to foster overreliance on technology.

Asked @nicklantz.bsky.social to watch the opening of 11 movies for me. He questioned the task, thinking of only two possibilities: 1) I’m doing work or 2) I’m the embodiment of a monster from The Phantom Tollbooth 🤣

My dad, who has lived under a dictatorship, knows one when he sees one. His first text this morning is that we are now officially in a dictatorship. It is all pretty grim.

You pray that this was a joke that went over like a fart in church. Otherwise, we are cooked.

It me.

the revealed position of the republican party is that it thinks broad expansion of higher education — and especially its expansion for certain americans — was a mistake that must be rolled back

As @nicklantz.bsky.social and I prepare for celebrating 20 years of marriage in Hawaii, we think our #PCA2025 and #PCA2024 tote bags are perfect for beach bags!

And that perhaps your original post highlights that other gender experiences are worth noting and no commentary is necessary!

Must be nice 🙄

I got one last panel in this morning before taking off!
What a great #PCA2025 and thanks again to @smittermeier.bsky.social , @pcbryan.bsky.social , and all the #DisneyStudies folks for a lovely conference.

Exactly!

Disney Studies VII

Disney Studies VII elaborated on Monsters Inc. as a 90s corporate parable, Disney commitment to making money in spite of/through racism , and the performativity as community building in Star Wars for light and dark - @vplphd.bsky.social

Watched Stop Making Sense on the plane to gear up for PCA. Then hopped in a cab with another attendee heading to the conference! Excited to get going! @pcaaca.bsky.social #disneystudies

Not one of these EOs listed in this letter is valid. Notably, no statutory language is listed. The President’s agenda is not a statutory reason for termination. It really is just straight up lying and people should start just suing the government in the Court of Claims.

Val Kilmer, Film Star Who Played Batman and Jim Morrison, Dies at 65 A wide-ranging leading man who earned critical praise, he was known to be charismatic but unpredictable. At one point he dropped out of Hollywood for a decade.

I’ve had a deep and abiding love for Val Kilmer. It started with Real Genius and Willow and never stopped.
