Here are some things that Charlie Kirk said in his life.

The man is dead, and so it only seems fair to share his legacy by cataloguing the values he spread while alive.

Scary times.

Turning Point USA made a literal watch list of professors, primarily women, queer folks and people of color, and made us targets of political violence. I’ve received hate mail and harassment and death threats off and on for nearly a decade in part due to that man’s organization so 🤷🏽‍♀️

i’m not going to be lectured about political violence by people whose politics is violence

The Senate’s rhetoric against #rfk today is cool and all but what is its purpose? He’s like a kid getting scolded by his parents. He knows they can’t do anything to stop him and therefore doesn’t give a shit. It’s just a spectacle at this point.

Most "no shit" moment of 2025 so far. Or at least top 10.

The temptation to use #ChatGPT to help revise simple documents (emails, letters of rec., etc.) is pretty great for me. I don't do it because I don't want to lose my writing chops. However, I understand why students are also tempted to use it for help with writing tasks.

👋 Hi!

I'm always insecure about my teaching but then students will tell me that they loved my class. It’s so weird because students will just sit quietly for 10 weeks and you just don’t know if you are getting to them and then it turns out that you are!

I'm wondering if they'll find that the killer's spouse/mother/father/child had been denied some sort of life-saving coverage...

A man’s Spotify wrapped is all men: deeply terrifying, an aura of evil menace that they wear like a cloak (and not the cool type of evil cloak)

Does anyone still have faith in the Supreme Court? I need a little faith here.
