@HPbasketball One day…the Pinwheel will fly again.

@BigMeanInternet Formation of subjectivity is crucial, but I’m of a Ranciereian mind here to think the current system of consensual crisis is not possible to break from the inside. If we want true Dissensus and a real capacity for speculative, non-linear subjectivity, it must come from bottom-up.

“It reads like a comic play by Václav Havel. It looks like the desperate last days of the Soviet Union.”

Havel once wrote an essay, The Power of the Powerless, in which he extolled the reader to ‘live in truth.’ It is the bravest act one can commit in our society today.

Leen Hijaz, valedictorian at her high school in North Carolina, said the following in her graduation speech:

"Before I leave the stage, I have one last thing to say. Every single person here has a voice; we have the privilege to use it when millions around the world are struggling and suffering to be heard. Whether it’s the millions suffering in Palestine, Sudan, Congo, Afghanistan and so many other countries around the world, or families being torn apart by ICE. These are not just an issue here; they are happening there, they’re happening right here as I speak. My point is, we’re not given a voice to stay silent."

Corey Robin, a political theorist at Brooklyn College, writes: "The mere mention of Palestine—maybe ICE, too—sent the high school principal, Melissa Moore, hurtling across the stage to seize the microphone from Hijaz, and stop her from saying these unapproved words.

Just look at this photograph: A young Muslim woman, speaking out, and a desperate, terrified principal trying to shut her down, lest the student say something unauthorized, disapproved, discordant with the views of an increasingly small clique of government officials and voters.

It's so pathetic. It reads like a comic play by Václav Havel. It looks like the desperate last days of the Soviet Union. I can only hope Hijaz speaks for a generation that will, one day, sweep all this garbage into the dustbin of history".

If you know how much Chicago (or any other university) is paying to give everyone on campus Claude Enterprise, my DMs are open. I am curious how this expense compares to the apparently “too expensive” humanities PhD programs Chicago has cut. I bet the answer is illuminating!

[Jeremy Antley @jsantley]

@Chabotsports Yeah, this isn’t on Q but the cricket sounds coming from ownership sure aren’t loud enough to silence the Greek Chorus that is the ‘Fire Q’ crowd.

[Jeremy Antley @jsantley]

@JohnyJ_15 You obviously want the sweep but I’m encouraged by their play recently. Looking a lot better than that awful start. Keep winning series and we will be back in it in no time.

@jaylonthompson @ATLHawks Blazers fan here, love seeing C.J. cook AND get his flowers.

[Jeremy Antley @jsantley]

@blazerbanter Watching highlights and my thoughts were, “I bet Dame has been helpful for developing Scoot’s game.” Some of those moves were classic Dame! What a benefit to have one of the best point guards in the modern era and one of the best leaders in franchise history in your ear.

[Jeremy Antley @jsantley]

@codybtapp Easily one of my favorite pitchers the Royals have had for a while.

[Jeremy Antley @jsantley]

@Chabotsports When they zig, you zag because that what speed do.

[Jeremy Antley @jsantley]

Very likely that 2024 will be seen as a mirage year that led to the front office making bad assumptions and even worse decisions when it comes to signings/promotions/etc. With a lockout coming and Bobby’s first opt-out in 2030, Royals about to be on the hot seat in a major way.

[Alex Gold @AlexGold]

Just a bad baseball team.

[Jeremy Antley @jsantley]

Ha, and then they score 6 in the top of the Seventh to take the lead. No snark goes unpunished, ha.

[Jeremy Antley @jsantley]

Feels like a return to form with the Royals quickly becoming irrelevant by the start of May. Nature is healing, etc., etc.

[Jack Johnson @JohnyJ_15]

The Tigers are running away with it and the #Royals are staring down the barrel of being swept for the first time this season.

After today, they’ll head to New York. The Yankees were 6-0 against them last season.

@rosswolfe Here are some great essays from The New Inquiry when this movie came out https://t.co/EuSzk3SF4Y

@royalsreview The Craftsman is certainly twirling that ball today.

[Jeremy Antley @jsantley]

@VPasquantino Vinnie, you and Team Italy are class acts. So damn proud that you are a Royal.

[Jeremy Antley @jsantley]

KD is up there with Lillard as the two realest players in the league right now. Different people to be sure, but both have that same no-BS mentality and true love for the game.

[Michael Lee @MrMichaelLee]

As Kevin Durant closes in on Michael Jordan for fifth on the all-time scoring list, I spoke to him for @ringer about the cost of a commitment to greatness, his mentality as a scorer, why MJ "is the standard" & more. https://t.co/vreRCKSCwB

There is a line of thought at the highest executive levels that see AI as a way to both remove labor costs and introduce inefficiencies that they can then charge more for people to avoid. Capitalism does not want to be efficient, it wants to create costly breaks in the system.

[Mαtt Thomαs @mattthomas]

Universities are like, “We need to teach students how to use AI so they can get jobs.” Brother, companies are already like, “Why would I hire a college graduate when I can just use AI?”
