On top of it all is the text "time to be my most unhinged self".

Mamdani: For too long, those fluent in the good grammar of civility have deployed decorum to mask agendas of cruelty
Mamdani's Executive Order Number 1, as described in the post.
I was wondering what Mamdani's first executive order would be, and I'm not disappointed by this.
He has wiped off the books EVERY Eric Adams executive order issued on or after September 26, 2024, the day Adams was indicted on federal bribery charges.

How about you? What is your approach (or politics) when writing your research problems?
While doing some reading and data gathering for my 1st (out of 12) research topic, I stumbled on the rabbit hole about research problems. It's been almost 8 hours now reading on the history, philosophy, sociology, and psychology of science regarding how to write research problems...
So many things to write. So many things to read. So little time.
...the university to: (1) boost teaching and non-teaching productivity, (2) help school administrators create and implements policies, programs, and activities for a better university experience for the teaching and non-teaching personnel, and for the students as well.
I noticed how few (or none) of my colleagues are into getting deep to address problems experienced within our academic community. They are too invested in looking at problems outside. I am hoping to fill that void and agitate others to think for better policies, programs, and activities inside...
In the attempt to intentionally commit to an academic life with a bigger purpose, I started plotting the things I wanted to research about. I have prepared 12 topics for investigation. Most of these topics are geared towards intellectualizing our local academic experience in the university.
but I will refuse to dance with their conservative choreography. Instead, I will do all that I can to advance more progressive, scientific, and mass-oriented academic activities and encourage other faculty members to follow this intellectual path.
...writers, artists, and others in all walks of life and learn from them as well. My current university is too busy complying with bureaucratic policies, which does little to improve academic discourse on local, regional, national, and international concerns. I understand where they are coming from,
...and reflections regarding my academic life. I hope this will push my personal drive to be a better academic and pursue a body of research work that serves the broader Filipinos, and is critical to the oppressive status quo. Looking forward to meeting other academics, public intellectuals...
Another year is about to end. Since being invited to teach in a State University, I haven't fully embraced my role as a public educator...not until now. Starting from this day, I will be using tis platform to share my day-to-day activities in the university...
I am writing a novella for the whole month of November
Reading short stories in the morning birthed 8 story ideas I can work on. I need to be back in the local writing scene.
