I am not flying to Butbank so 🤞🤞🤞🤞

Like, do we really think Jennifer Aniston only uses Aveeno skin products? No

Yeah I think it's important for students to recognize that what they are *selling* is authenticity. This is a political and cultural campaign. They are not necessarily living the life they are selling, but part of the campaign is to frame it as "authentic" as possible +

too late! No worries

tho they both were involved. I give up and am stepping away from the keyboard

I think it would be a mistake to believe that the Trad Wife influencers are living the lifestyle they advocate in general. Take Charlie Kirk's wife for example. We can go back to Phyllis Schlafly, too, who advocated trad marriage on many levels yet had a media-heavy career

Ugh yes I am deleting and fixing

I also wouldn't call it hypocrisy but marketing and promoting an ideology in practice that they get rewarded for through $, publicity, and various in-group rewards/support/etc.

Not sure why Rs think this will blow back on dems. Everyone-esp fed workforce- knows that they are owed back pay, that they got back pay during previous shutdowns, & that it’s the Trump admin that is denying their pay

very distressing news; Dennis was a terrific scholar and a real mensch

Dear NAPS friends, I just received awful news that Dennis Trout has passed away 😢

Oh how sad. He was truly one of the good ones- brilliant, funny, kind

how does that even work???

uuuugggghhhhh I'm supposed to fly Wednesday

I suffer frm pretty serious imposter syndrome, or, well, I don't think of it as imposter syndrome bc I genuinely think I shld be better at many aspects of my job - writing, knowledge of languages, exec functioning/admin sklls, etc. But this BW thing has even me wondering if I'm too self-critical

How Local Librarians Keep AI Slop Off the Shelves AI is being used to create nonsensical, sometimes dangerously inaccurate books. Local librarians are tasked with keeping these volumes out of their collections.

“When you get a suspicious book, “you look it up to see what else the [author] has written. And you see there's 30 things, and none of them have any reviews, and they were all written in the last two years,” DeMeester-Lane says.”

I think the salary fund is also separate but I dont know the details. This is the first year with both. There is a session later in October on understanding the budget but I don’t think I have time for it

Is it just me or does Chrome update nearly every day?

🔥🔥🔥 be sure to listen past the stuff about the horrible people

for any UVA folks that follow me you should circulate this among your networks balkin.blogspot.com/2025/10/the-...

you know, I don’t exactly know how the NIL fund works. I know it is somewhat separate, & my understanding is that they are raising private $$ separately. but I don’t know the details and I’m sure at the very least it may affect other fundraising. it will not come from the gen non-ath budget tho

I don’t know now. When I was hired in 2019 I was told some went to the libraries and some went to the art museum and that was not all. I don’t know about now or how much

it pisses me off cnn keeps him on

People like teachers and doctors and nurses are expected to de-escalate tense situations every single day without throwing people on the ground.

I mostly boycott 🏈 because what it does to players' brains & bodies. A friend played one season in the NFL and got a career-ending injury that's plagued him ever since. CTE is horrific. I watch OU games bc it's basic cultural literacy here + our athletics makes $ & gives $ back to academics

OU wide receiver Keontez Lewis collides with end zone wall, stretchered off field OU redshirt senior wide receiver Keontez Lewis was stretchered off the field after running full speed into the brick wall behind the north end zone in Saturday’s matchup against Kent

Relieved to hear our WR is walking around and has had clean x-rays. That collision with the wall made everyone worried he had a life-changing injury. I'm sure he has a bad concussion, which could also be life-changing, but at least he doesn't seem paralyzed

so needed!!

Just talking about this recently given our state’s current shenanigans. I sincerely believe that this happened because of the business influencer consulting industry. Whole guide books out there about getting appointed to a university board to build your brand.

Yes what I’ve wanted for ages is just a basic descriptive analysis of the finance (and then later tech), business, and HE leadership cabal. We need the headhunters, conferences, residencies, etc and then we can start with their black boxes.
