Ah, yes, paraphrasing the famous humanistic principle, I see. To quote Erasmus: “The student customer is always right.” What a disgrace.

Also universities: defunding the humanities so students are illiterate in ordinary languages

ALT-Text: Schauerliche Hände von Untoten krallen nach einer halbzerfetzten Erdkugel;
Würmer fressen Handstumpen;
überall sind Finger, einfach sehr viele gierige Finger, die grabbelig aalig nach einem dreckigen Klumpen schnappen.

Sometimes it’s the little things that really brighten your day, like this lovely thank-you note from @magdalenoxford.bsky.social which I received yesterday. They didn’t need to do this, which makes it all the more special.

Only a genuine idiot or a nasty piece of work could think that making one’s country less welcoming and hospitable so fewer people want to come and live there constitutes an achievement worth bragging about.
