Der linke Unrast-Verlag nimmt Noam Chomsky wegen seiner Epstein-Nähe aus dem Programm. Man wolle „Täter und ihre Unterstützer*innen weder schützen, noch ihnen eine Plattform oder ein Einkommen bieten. Unsere Solidarität und Unterstützung gilt den Opfern patriarchaler Gewalt“, schreibt der Verlag.

this is very much not the core of the issue. we tolerate all sorts of biological advantages and disadvantages in sports. the real fundamental question here is: why is this one different than the others?

one of the coolest things about ChatGPT is how you can actually just never use it. you can fill your whole entire life with simply not once using it. it's incredible.

Je survole un papier sur les effets des genAI sur l'écriture scientifique et sa production, je ne résiste donc pas à mettre (même si c'est maintenant bien connu) la liste des mots identifiés comme ayant explosé dans les abstracts avec l'introduction de chatGPT arxiv.org/abs/2510.02408

Pretty sure real science is actually reading the papers, thinking very deeply, and more, before writing, not generating literature review-like objects with no authorial intent or legwork

Linguistics Out of the Closet | Cadernos de Linguística Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin image/svg+xml

Today is #ComingOutDay—and we have two queer linguistic literature tips to go with it! First off, Tyler Kibbey’s (2021) essay “Linguistics Out of the Closet” (#OpenAccess in @cadlin.bsky.social) calls for a “queering” of the discipline of linguistics altogether.

The argument that capitalism thrives off normativity ignores the
fact that it also thrives off diversity, pluralism, fashion, and market
segments. While the heteronormative family is productive for capital,
queer urban individualists and drop-out counter-culturalists are also
productive for capital – the former as ‘creatives’ in the labor market,
the latter as a surplus population (or, in the US, low-cost service
industry labor). Queers without children are also not entirely outside
the family matrix in that unmarried and childless family members
are often taxed with eldercare. It is romantic to think that you can
change the world through diverse sexuality, creative self-expression,
and communal bonding. But you can’t.
Also, trans and intersexed people should not be used as a flag
of radical possibility for a new, postgendered future. First of all,
trans and intersexed people are, more often than not, gendered.
Second, trans bodies have enough pressures without being required
to have to intentionally position their bodies as political objects.11
However, if queerness is not progressive, it is also not reactionary or
a product of bourgeois deviation, as it was sometimes caricatured
by mid-century Marxist and Third Worldist movements. Nor is it
a Eurocentric import external to precolonial peoples. It is also not

Following up on yesterday's semi-rant, here's another piece of cop shit I've abandoned. No notes needed. No notes from doctors, no notes from employers, definitely no funeral notices or death certificates. You actually don't need to give me any rationale at all for absences or extensions.
