Image of shower from the Gaylord Palms in Kissimmee, FL. Of note is a short silver bar in the corner about a foot and a half from the ground.

Found my first “woke” shower in Florida of all places. There must have been women in on the design process to come up with the fabulousness. Men, don’t worry if you’re confused . . . it’s not about you.

A spot of clear blue sky amid clouds atop snowy mountains, somebig green tufted rocks, and the Mendenhall Glacier showing off its white and blue flow.

A little bit of blue sky for Bluesky

Oh hey, so you just do owe people kindness. This “I don’t owe people anything” mentality is toxic.

“We, a diverse coalition of Jews at Columbia and Barnard, wholeheartedly reject the invocation of Jewish safety as a pretense to persecute, detain, and deport fellow students and community members without due process of law.”

“We have a strong amount of evidence that the fact that this lawsuit has gone on for two years has actually caused reduced learning in math and reduced learning in reading”
Yeah, sure, that’s a super hypothesis. Let’s go with that.

AI as the killer of bad higher ed takes? "But this uninspired realism risks being upended by the emergence of AI, which exposes the vacuity of education as vocational training. How do you prepare yourself for a job market that can carry on more efficiently without you?"

Opinion | We’ve Forgotten What College Is For It’s for probing the human condition, not lining up a good internship.

"Instead of making the case that the skills we teach students are transferable across a multitude of career fields, we should be saying something much stronger: The skills we are teaching . . . move directly to the core of who we are & what we do."

Anyone out there hold stock in a public company and usually ignore the proxy vote info? Now’s the time to pay attention and make your voice heard on things like making the company hire a 3rd party human rights review board. #myownershipmyvoice

Things still terrible, but: Viktor Orban was unable to stop protests in Budapest; Musk's money couldn't win the Wisconsin Supreme Court for Repugs; Marine Lepen is fuming over her court loss in Paris; and Corey Booker made a bravura stand against Trump in the Senate. More days like this please.

If you're scooping up students off the street for writing op-eds, you're secret police, and should be treated accordingly.

Stay gold, Ponyboy.
