I met this cute girl in college and she was way smarter than me and she was a linguistics major and I knew I needed to take the survey class if I ever hoped to keep up with her.

(We now have a kid and a house and two cats.)

As warnings about AI β€œnecromancy” circulate in Catholic discourse, Pagans once again appear as the unspoken cautionary tale. But the real ethical concern may not be communicating with the dead, but consent, authority, and imitation.

@budzinski.house.gov , it would be nice if you’d say something about this monstrous statement by Ogles.

Have any non-Muslim Democrats condemned this, yet? If not, I would, really, really like them to do so, post-haste

As best I can tell it was just Trump manifesting that we are way ahead of schedule on achieving our war objectives, Iran is completely out of munitions, and it’s a lot of fun to sink unarmed ships.

like the horizon of our imagination for a post fascist US cannot be just, "middle class tax cuts"

Yeah I strongly dislike the left anti tax movement. There's no having a society just on the back of soaking the rich, even people far lower down the inequality ladder have to contribute. That's fine. We're all in this together.

For reference, Illinois spent a little over $11 billion on K12 education last fiscal year.

It’s just all so obvious and stupid, y’know? There’s not even anything for Margot Robbie to explain in the bathtub this time.

@robincdouglas.bsky.social has a book coming in our Equinox series on pre-Gardnerian British Pagan revivals, while Sasha is working mostly on Byzantine-era esotericism right now. Worth hearing! More details and Zoom link in comments.

My story "Please Don't Talk About Me When I'm Gone" is live right now in Luna Station Quarterly 65! Jazz-playing alien bugs! Queer love triangles! Awkward social interactions! All this, plus (and I really can't emphasize this enough) jazz-playing alien bugs!

What does this imply for those of us who are not Christian, and who labor under the assumption that we're protected by the First Amendment?
