I’m reading Dracula for the first time and it’s not supernatural horror but actually documentary realism about a city without enough Italians. Van Helsing has to IMPORT the garlic! 😱😱😱

There are many life-and-death reasons why some people can't move some places and so don't bother applying, but the idea that there are hundreds of open jobs in the humanities available in ""undesirable"" states is also factually untrue.

[Erik Loomis @ErikLoomis]

This is an important point to the current academic job debate. People complaining about the market have plenty of legit points, but I've known a lot of people who refused to apply to the job in Arkansas or North Dakota or Wyoming or South Carolina or turned down the t-t job there

Has there ever been more important C19 news? @printculture

Everyone please stop tagging me on this. Yea I saw it. It’s got me really messed up honestly. How would you feel if you found out your metaphors were doing it?

Who exactly is being slaughtered right now? Who is losing their jobs? Who is being targeted by smear campaigns funded by governments? Who has been subject to western military slaughter for decades? This reads like it’s on a different planet where Muslims and Arabs don’t exist.

@RColesworthy Nooooooo ugh

[Dave Mazella_@[email protected] @DaveMazella]

this is the dynamic that's killing public higher ed: states disinvest & then demand the right to micromanage or impose further cuts

She’s everything. He’s just Ken.

Central Istanbul on lockdown today as police seek to block Gay Pride parade. Once home to the Middle East's biggest Gay Pride march, Istanbul has become hostile to LGBTQ+ after government targeted groups as 'terrorists' & dropped legal protections

Also certain flagships like UCLA, Cal, UVA, etc have much more in common with Harvard than they do with the vast majority of public institutions.

[Angelina Del Balzo @ADelBalzo]

There are not many students going to UCLA for free. Certainly they’re not eligible to if they’re having to pay 200k for Harvard. Clearly as a society we all need to be paying more for the average person to acquire basic research skills…

[Everything Price Sufferer (but especially eggs) @agraybee]

I'm sorry but there shouldn't be student loan relief for ivies. If you paid 200k to go to Harvard you could have gone to UCLA for free and got an equivalent education. The rest of us shouldn't have to pay for kids chasing prestige.

[Angelina Del Balzo @ADelBalzo]

WELL then
