09.12.2025 23:11 β π 20 π 2 π¬ 1 π 0We need to behave like Other People Are Real and create and sustain enforcement mechanisms that make a society possible

09.12.2025 22:39 β π 9 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0Kids, please enroll in my certificate of Ben Stein studies and get ready for a ride
09.12.2025 22:28 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0These colleges are eliminating white collar jobs left and right and trying to sell you a degree in AI prompts? Gtfo!

09.12.2025 22:15 β π 2 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Also, Iβm not sure how to smartly formulate this, but forgoing education to train for a job in a rigged economy that is constantly declaring all kinds of jobs superfluous and workers disposable seems like a bad deal. Like if someone is selling you a secure job, are they grifting?

Would you be interested in editing an academic journal? MAH editors Sarah Snyder and Darren Dochuk will reach the end of their term in summer 2027, and Cambridge is looking for a new editorial team.
More details below.
How come evil things donβt need to be pragmatic or reasonable or justified, evil things donβt need to be considered in light of tradeoffs, only the good things we all need to thrive
09.12.2025 18:34 β π 12 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0Your degree in the liberal arts left you vulnerable but this certificate in AI studies will surely bolster your security in late capitalism π€‘
09.12.2025 18:23 β π 9 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Among other things I canβt believe anyone is still profiting on the lie that you need to forgo education to train people for job. at this moment when capital is eviscerating white collar work/er power! A trend your own institution has embraced! π€‘
09.12.2025 18:17 β π 9 π 1 π¬ 1 π 0Finally someone has the guts to say what we are all thinking

09.12.2025 18:03 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0I canβt believe how many challenges are in this landscape
09.12.2025 18:01 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Narratives of inevitability tend to obscure the choices available or the contingencies that shape outcomes
09.12.2025 17:31 β π 7 π 0 π¬ 2 π 0I just put that through my ai powered innovation measurer and itβs off the charts!
09.12.2025 17:28 β π 3 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0The piece shows everyone relieved that there is stability after a free fall, but this lady comes across as a monster. Unfortunately everywhere is monsters, rewarded for their small fascism.
09.12.2025 17:27 β π 5 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0I was a vap somewhere getting McKinseyed and I tried to suggest that instead of doing what everyone else was doing, the institution could differentiate itself on the market by doing really good liberal arts, anyway they didnβt renew my contract and that guy got paid better than I ever will
09.12.2025 17:26 β π 53 π 4 π¬ 1 π 0I know a brilliant scholar still there, and Iβd like her to survive

09.12.2025 17:22 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0As of the 2020 United States census, Reading had a population of 95,112. Of which, 68.9% were Hispanic/Latino, 18.9% were non-Hispanic White, 8.5% were non-Hispanic Black, 0.7% Asian, 0.1% Native American or Pacific Islander, and 2.9% mixed or other. 32]
So many things to say but I just want to point to the example of βLatin American studiesβ being a useless major in the piece and make sure everyone knows Reading is 70% Latino? Denying Albright the chance to learn Lat Am studies is a kind of affront against the community
