lol i love the assumption behind this that academia works just the same as a normal business. no this is not a promotion and there isn’t a soul in the department that wants this position and it is never determined by one’s work productivity
Quién se va a acordar de una película de ping-pong en un año.
bonus: mummification process involves removing the brain through the nose, which in this case it would have been a very satisfying process for those observing
It's good--not as good as The Worst Person in the World, in my opinion. But I liked it.
wait, are we allowed to make fun of Bridgerton on Bluesky? No angry Victorianists with pitchforks to fear??
Yeah, don't be fooled by his list, apparently he recently got a bunch of blue-rays and there are 2 PTA movies in the group...now we know who @isanchezprado.bsky.social is secretly rooting for... bsky.app/profile/isan...
And of course it was DS9 that started to challenge that format
Currently titled Repetition and Return: The Politics of Episodicity in Star Trek: Voyager and under review with Lever Press.
Some sample words:
This academic book, which deals with the 1990s television show in isolation, rather than the extended media universe of Star Trek: Voyager...
This is so fascinating! I have no proof but I think that part of the problem conservative viewers have with the new trek has to do with the franchise moving away from traditional sitcom format of the early days
Wait, VOYAGER book?? Can you say more, please?
Thanks. I want to stay with poetry but using some of borges’s poems is a good idea
Oh, good question. I haven't selected anything yet, but I was thinking of something related to knowledge/power stuff, though something introducing the notion of discourse could work too.
spending the morning looking for ideas for a into to lit. theory class, thinking of using poetry, Marx, Freud, those are easy, but what can I pair with Foucault? Also, reading journals? Sounds like a bad idea at the moment....
So cool! Unfair to cats, though
This looks pretty interesting.

Finishing the day with some words on the #wip. So much easier to just barrel through when I'm doing it longhand and not angsting over every word. Just cross it out! Come back to it later! It's a $1 yellow legal pad! Who cares??
stereOS: a Linux based operating system hardened and purpose built for AI agents
"A full NixOS system that you boot and then kick off agent sandboxes inside with gVisor + /nix/store namespace mounting. Each agent gets their own kernel and the /nix/store is read only by nature.
First person who builds a raspberry pi wearable that uses AI image detection to spot Meta glasses and jam them wins
The Remote Labor Index (RLI) measures how well AI agents can automate real-world remote work projects — the current best automation rate is just 3.75%.
The debate on AI and the labor market needs empirical indices like the RLI — real-world performance metrics.

We had a snow day last Friday
It was fun

Nacho, dude, sorry but I might have to mute you for a couple of days if you continue posting these pics. It's unfair to the rest of us, c'mon!

It would be awesome to see both of you collaborating! @norabenedict.bsky.social
Oh! If you don't already know it, might I suggest you take a look at this DH article on the Argentinian Shanghai group and its international connections? doi.org/10.48694/jcl...
I also want to bring attention @norabenedict.bsky.social 's wonderful book on Borges and add it to this list yalebooks.yale.edu/book/9780300...
Yes! While the volume edited by Moraña is a valuable contribution, only two chapters in it (Bosshard and Ana Gallego) contain that quantitative dimension that makes McGrath's work on literary agents so interesting.
