I have high goals going into my 8th year of teaching higher ed, and chief among them is staying relatable to my students: I have already started doing this with the summer camp student counselors I lead, and my goal is to roll this through the 22-23 academic year:

Sitting at the gate in LaGuardia, woman next to says to her family several times, eyes red, breathing heavy and sighing, “I’m sick, I’m sick, I hope no one is still next to me.” Flight to MKE is fully booked. Are we cooked, @Delta ? I picked my stuff immediately and left.

She got a comfort plus upgrade and is in the row behind me. Couch and hacking. @Delta

*Coughing and hacking I asked the flight attendant for a face mask. A two-ply SaniNap is the only barrier I have from certain respiratory collapse. Patient zero into Milwaukee’s first name starts with A. @Delta

Saying “I’m not surprised” makes it about you, when sometimes it shouldn’t.

Hear me out: The government owning stock (in means of production) sounds more socialist than capitalist.

Y’all @OpenAI @grok @perplexity_ai better be training the AIs on the Bible and to fear to God or how else is anything supposed to know right from wrong. Else we’re all effed. Nothing else will do, obviously.

Paid coaches at universities exist already. Bur like esports, one my other areas of interest, research can lead more formal/established positions at universities. Perhaps can I transfer departments at my current institution. #ultimate @Ultiworld wfdf.sport/2025/03/launch-of…

I heard about the premise of Anne Patchett's Bel Canto and had to interrupt to double-check if Die Hard was being described.

I’ve been reflecting on this over the past day or so, and I’ve come to a realization. Many of my friends on the center-right who are upset with me for making what I believe to be very obvious observations aren’t necessarily angry at me—they’re angry at the implications of what I’m saying. The idea that neo-Nazism has entered the mainstream, potentially influencing the White House, is so alarming and existentially terrifying that it's easier to lash out at the messenger than confront the reality. If they accept this, it means that the political home they've invested so much of their identity in, the movement they've championed for years, has become something so morally repugnant that accepting it feels like breaking their own brain. The cognitive dissonance is overwhelming. What's striking to me is the selective outrage. Many of these same people are quick to call everyone communists, often with little more than circumstantial evidence. Yet, when it comes to countless instances of glaringly obvious signs of fascism in their own movement, they either look away or attack those pointing it out.
Don't let anyone gaslight you. Everyone saw what happened.
