That tag should have been #highered. The photo, sadly, is not high res.
These old canards have returned to CSULB. #waterfowl #higheres
If there’s a flash forward scene where an elder Yoshi reflects on his earlier life, please tell me that he’s voiced by Billy Dee Williams!
Here we go again.
We're tired of this revolving door. And we need a real say in what comes next.
Ugh! I’m sorry this is happening, Jill. I’m glad the faculty, staff, and students are speaking out.
NEH's budget is tiny—not just compared to NSF/NIH, but compared to humanities funding in every other wealthy nation. What little was there was largely rescinded and several programs were cut in full last year. It decimated not merely individual projects but whole corners of the humanities in the US.
Ha! I bought that one but never read it. I do really love Foucault’s Pendulum!
It’s a great one! Umberto Eco knew how to write a novel!
I was watching the video and thinking it was a waste of time, and then Bernie intervened. That was the highlight.
So the fifth volume is really frustrating?
It is fun, but it also feels, late in volume four, that the characters are almost entirely awful people.
I’m almost done with Sodom and Gomorrah. I’m really loving that volume. Some of the Charlus and Charlie “fake duel” discussion is hilarious.
i miss chubby jesse plemons and i bet kirsten does too
Rereading Ali Smith’s _Gliff_, and it seems made for this moment.
It’s a great one! Their commentary makes every Monday better.
Thank you for reading the paragraphs.
I think the greatest gift college professors in the humanities can give to students right now is a seminar room where, for 80 minutes twice a week, nothing that happens to them is a sales pitch for an AI product.
If Bad Bunny was serious about uniting Americans, he would have given his Grammy to Donald Trump.
Please tell me she was translating the works of Arthur Machen.
Omg this is magical. Thanks for sharing.
Liam Conejo Ramos, the 5-year-old whose detention by ICE sparked national fervor, has landed in Minnesota with his father, Adrian Conejo Arias, Sunday morning, according to U.S. Rep. Joaquin Castro from Texas. 💙 No kid should be in ICE detention. No kid should be separated from his parents.
Colleagues, especially those in CA and in the California State University, please sign this petition. I know you've all heard the bleak news stories about our AI debacle (because people are always bringing the stories to me)!
I would love to catch up! I'll email you. I feel like I'm doing okay...the CSU...
Quantum chemistry sounds amazing!
Never mind the jobs you had, five classes you took in college:
1. Historical Geology
2. Death, Suffering, and Endurance
3. Philosophy of Mind
4. Seminar: Racine
5. Symphonic Band
I feel the same!
Thank you for sharing, Martha!
The Heated Rivalry doughnuts.
I think of the Meryl Ethel Rosenberg moments with Roy Cohn so so often
Congratulations on this milestone
