We Are Colonizing Space (an Excerpt)
Dr. David Shorter has been a regular commentator on the search for extraterrestrial intelligence and space exploration. Both activities, he says, are currently duplicating the previous prejudices and egocentrism that caused widespread violence on earth.
As a professor I see a fresh new crop of 17-18 year olds every year. Iโve come to realize that students have slowly been changing due to the changes decades ago in the American education system. To parents and students of all ages, please donโt prioritize obeyance.

This looks amazing. Great job. As an editor of a book series on film studies, I could use this for my classes. Though, playing around, I note one thing: We need to have the film downloaded onto our machine? That rules out most films as we would not have those files. I didn't see an FAQ on the app.

Caring for the whole individual is not something U.S. healthcare provides due to pharma and insurers, as well as narrow training in medical schools. Medical schoola should require not just community engagement, but also the Arts, Social Sciences, and Humanities.

For those not paying attention, the Univ of California has in the last month sent letters to faculty saying they cannot earn money outside their job; that social media posts will be reviewed and linked to promotions; and that faculty allegiance to UC will be reviewed by a non-local committee.

The crux of their argument is that if they're found liable, then the consequences of their own actions that no one forced them to take could ruin them and the rest of their industry that undertakes similar practices.

I'd just like to point out how weird it is that places with hundreds or even thousands of reporters โ the NYT, WaPo, CBS, NBC, AP, etc. โ are all getting pummeled on every major story by the dozen computerboys at Wired. To fumble the bag this consistently is, at some point, cowardice and a choice.

A screenshot of a message attributed to Marc Andreessen appears in a chat format with a gray background and white text bubbles. The first bubble states that he was born in 1971 in Iowa, raised in Wisconsin, and that his generation was told to endure discrimination as repayment for past American bigotry, even though the discrimination was now directed at them. The second bubble claims the last eight years, especially the summer of 2020, ended that complacency. The third bubble says โmy peopleโ are now furious and unwilling to tolerate it. The fourth bubble accuses universities of being central to a โcounterattack,โ alleging they both discriminate against โusโ and spread the opposing worldview. The final bubble claims: โThey declared war on 70% of the country and now theyโre going to pay the price.โ

"I can't believe what this country is doing to poor people and immigrants."
Really? Wait till you learn about Native American history.
This country has been violent and cruel since before they founded it in writing.
Dr. David Delgado Shorter explains that time is not real, or at least as we think of it. Time is not linear. Time is not moving in a direction. Other worlds are possible as we continually learn from Indigenous communities. And memory can go in both direction?
