If my time spent as a classroom teacher taught me anything, it's that the processes that make up how teachers are trained, incorporated, and applied within classrooms are ultimately doomed to collapse.

The assemblage that makes up American education is reaching a crisis point.

The Epstein Files Transparency Act is a law, passed by Congress on November 19 with an overwhelming vote. Complying with it was not optional. The Department of Justice did not comply.

I want to make sure this is very clear.

So many in media are ill-equipped to interview officials about what’s happening because they begin with the presumption of legitimacy and don’t know enough about history or U.S. foreign policy to foment intelligent pushback and hold officials accountable.

Don't overthink the Trump admin's reasoning here. They don't have a grand scheme. They are willing to upend the international order because they think everyone else will be too scared to fuck with them. And whatever terrorist attacks this inspires against us will just help them electorally.

This was either a terrible or a great time to start reading "Cyclonopedia"

one lesser awful thing about the Epstein files is that genuine crimes against a huge number of children are being morphed into fuel for the influencer industrial complex who don't care about truth or accuracy and just want grist for the content mills

At least 16 files have disappeared from the DOJ webpage for documents related to Jeffrey Epstein The Justice Department’s webpage for documents related to sex offender Jeffrey Epstein is missing at least 16 of its files a day after they were released.

BREAKING: At least 16 files from the Epstein release disappeared from DOJ's webpage, including a photo of Trump, with no explanation.

there's just something so bleak about the fact that the seemingly apolitical murder of two elderly people by their profoundly ill son becomes a political football before the bodies are even cold

There have been so many jarring and painful and violent depictions of birth and postpartum and motherhood in American film the past few years… I wonder if something happened

Congratulations, David Zaslav, on being the most destructive force in US entertainment in the entire history of show business

The obsession people have with characters in fiction making good, moral decisions needs to be stopped.

Like, did none of y’all learn in middle school ELA that most plots are driven by conflict? If characters were only allowed to make good decisions, so many important stories just wouldn’t exist.

Genuinely surprised that, with all of the Stephen King references that "Stranger Things" has made, no one has connected Vecna’s actions and the plan of the Crimson King in "The Dark Tower".

Genuinely, I feel like I’m the only one who’s noticed this.

The fact that thousands of people are frying their brains with feedback loops of AI-generated gobbledygook that they interpret as divine revelation should scare everyone

Getting back to work!

The AI industry marginalizes and devalues human creativity rather than affirming it.

Those that say “AI is a tool” never acknowledge what the industry does to artists to legitimize its mythology.

By describing itself as “the future”, it devalues what doesn’t fit that identity/territory.

Despite being on this Earth for 28 years it still feels like a huge betrayal every time the sun sets at 5 pm. How can they keep getting away with this

We’ve arrived at America trying to sell an ultra-rich pedophile ring as a new type belle époque.

Any attempt to ascribe rigid structures on complex desires ultimately break down.

This is why arguments in favor of an objective metric for artistic quality fail on every level.

I became an AI skeptic bc the only cogent use cases AI boosters gave were, "a better search engine". but regular search engines already worked fine for 99% of people. the few folks who needed something more were like, me and my colleagues, none of whom found tremendous value in AI search tools

Cynical, angry, and delightfully misanthropic. Will Tracy’s script as well as the performances are the stand-outs, here.

While some narrative choices are more effective than others, "Bugonia" is a funny and upsetting exercise in pessimism.
