@americfootba Amanda, maybe some day I’ll be cool enough to make sense of your tweets. 🤷‍♀️

I just taught "Kinds of Water" in my memoir class as an example of the haibun, but what has always struck me as Anne Carson's most important scholarly statement is her translation of Sappho, and her feminist refusal to fill the gaps of the original papyrus, language men imagined

Fuck AI

[Boris Dralyuk @BorisDralyuk]

Surprised by the violent reactions to this. The progression is clear: the desire not to be gendered; not to have legs that are sexualized on sight; to love purely, until one’s personhood dissolves; not to die. Funny yet sad. Lovely music—especially in the vaguely Adonic lines…

I came across a Reddit post that described AI in a way I can’t stop thinking about:

“AI allows the wealthy to access skills while stripping skilled people of their ability to access wealth.”

I don’t think I’ve ever seen the purpose of AI captured so brutally and accurately.

I can’t look past the gendered nature of this post. This is patriarchy evolving with the times: as women begin to surpass men academically, men begin to devalue academic success.

I’m not intimidated by AI. I’m repulsed by it. I’m not jealous of AI art. I know it’s predictive rather than creative, and built on stolen content. I’m not scared of new technology. What I'm scared of is a world without trees, bees, fresh air, and clean water.

happy international lesbian day

the amount of times carson comes up in my sessions of psychoanalysis is quite literally innumerable. these excerpts, in particular, form an axis around which most of my existential, subjective, and relational concerns revolve. such simple, dangerous brutality. sharp, economical

Probably going to be completely overlooked by the media but today is the 200th birthday of photography as a medium and that’s pretty cool

I don’t give a fuck what Sam Altman declares. Why are we just letting these tech bros make these decisions for us? When did we all decide we don’t have any agency?

If college being free for everyone would make a college education worthless you are blatantly admitting a college education exists to be a class gateway
