Historians of motherhood etc. I hope one of us writes something on the Lindsay Clancy trial and its antecedents. Just tragedy upon tragedy.

This is so upsetting
Laura KellyImportant read. At least 859 infants and 19 women are estimated to have died in the Bessborough mother and baby institution. It is likely their remains were buried on the grounds.

Just sent to my editor at Rutgers!! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh 😱 also here is a pic of probably only half the secondary sources I used to write this thing!!!
Lauren MacIvor ThompsonIt's nearly 1am on a Friday night but pretty sure I just typed the last sentence of my entire book manuscript. A few more light edits on two chapters but the whole manuscript of Women's Votes, Doctors' Rights: The Making of the American Birth Control Movement now exists in some 85k words. 😳
The rage this makes me feel after sweating over and painfully extracting from my brain every single one of my 85k words for literally more than half a decade at this point. What a loser.
Damon YoungNope. No, you haven’t.
My undergrads get such an earful about this yes
Anthony Michael KreisIn my historical methods training, I was always taught “we start with a historical question.” I would never use “I’m testing a hypothesis” in my work. I might have a working theory or a working hypothesis, but I’m certainly never *testing* it. That’s ripe for cherry-picked, law office history.
The number of hours I have spent attempting to redesign my asynchronous online courses to avoid AI is unbelievable.
👓 Byunghwan 'Ben' SonThere are some mitigating measures for this. Still not sufficient and time-consuming/extensive (mostly interactive & customized stuff). A more important question is, are faculty (ever) compensated for the ed content engineering type of work in addition to their traditional obligations?
