My favorite.

I know his performances were sometimes rough because of his drinking. If I recall he was banned from a bar in my hometown ever again. Because he just went ape there One night. But he was a hell of a songwriter and very entertaining.

No worries. Life be like that Just paying you homage.

If you have tenure at Texas A&M and aren't maliciously emailing the president a dozen times every day to ask if you can say this or you can say that, then what's the point in having tenure?

JD Vance owns a company that buys American real estate and sells it to foreign investors. They specifically target Americans in crisis to buy their property for less than it is worth.

Things to know about Epstein hugger Ken Starr: prosecuted Bill Clinton for lying about consensual (if inappropriate) sex, got fired from Baylor University for doing nothing about an on-campus rape epidemic.

As all this disgusting Epstein shit starts surfacing more and more, I hope we don't lose sight of the fact that apparently every major media outlet knew everything and instead spent their time money and energy attacking the trans community.

Maybe it’s just the Humanities professor in me, but let it be noted that events of today (ahem) have demonstrated the value of being able to assess a large volume of qualitative data and do careful textual analysis with deep attention to context.

Oh you rich conspiring pedophiles & all your smug weaselly defenders, please lecture me again about how my trans kid is a threat to American family values

UPDATE: Now that 8 Senate Dems folded to Trump—Republicans demand tougher abortion restrictions to extend Obamacare funds.

What? Moving goal posts? Lucy and the football? Who Could Have Seen This Coming??

This is why you don't back down from a bully! My God! My kingdom for a spine for Democrats.

Got elected division chair today. Everyone else seemed so excited to not have it, it reminded me a comic from @choochoobear.bsky.social. Went to look for it but sadly appears Super Stuper (sp?) didn't get moved over when he had to move servers.

The tech job market in the US is terrible. If it’s not AI, we’re still offshoring as much as possible. Tech is the furniture business. Let machines do as much as possible. Offshore what can’t be automated (yet). We’re not letting young people learn the craft. Quantity over quality infects everything

Quality magic content

But computer science is cratering. Four-year undergraduate enrollment in computer and information sciences plunged by 7.7 percent this fall — and it decreased almost twice as fast at the graduate level. The Clearinghouse data doesn’t say why, but it’s hard to ignore recent gluts of tech-company layoffs and questions about artificial intelligence taking coders’ jobs in a discipline that’s proven subject to ebbs and flows.

From today's Chronicle of Higher Ed briefing. I am *never* an advocate of cutting programs. But I am curious to see if there will be the same type of "students aren't majoring in this, so let's cut the program" discourse around computer science as there always is for the arts and humanities.

One CEO called the idea a “disgusting insult” and “economic genocide against the Gen Z generation.” 👀

They got cute and used Senators not up for re-election next year or ones that were retiring for the surrender vote.

So here's the metric we use instead:

If you aren't pushing for a new Democratic leader in the Senate *immediately,* you're out on your ass.

DONALD TRUMP: [asleep, drooling on long red tie]

SENATE DEMOCRATS: fine, we give in

They are so bad at this.

This is one of the things from Spiderman I said from jump. Casual spiderman fans can get it anywhere and it will not bridge to new players they way they want it too.

When Republicans win elections: The people have spoken, we must let them implement their agenda.

When Democrats win elections: This totalitarian FREAK must be prevented from implementing the policies he ran on

Masterpiece

GOP: "we lost, rather than reflection on why.......we must stop women from voting! Anyone who doesn't support misogynistic, racist, & bigoted policies shouldn't be allowed to vote"........if they keep saying they're going to take away our right to vote, let's see what that gets them in the midterms.

Council is currently one of my favorite decks.
