One of the more charming and hilarious things about Italy is the amazing and deeply weird slow jazz versions of English language pop hits that play in seemingly every bar and restaurant. Yes I absolutely needed that slow jazz “Baby one more time” while I ate my apricot pie for breakfast.

First feedback on the book, from a trusted friend: "For a ms with 591 footnotes it’s shockingly readable!"

Lots of (horrifying) juicy nuggets in here like "One professor teaching “The Holocaust in Literature and Film” was instructed by the provost’s office to cut material examining the persecution of gay and bisexual men in Nazi Germany or remove the course from the core curriculum"

Alright what’s the over/under on the number of professors who tweet something appropriately nasty about Graham, get fired by their university, then sue and get a big cash settlement? I’m guessing 5.

Given other recent trends I’m surprised they didn’t just try a Weekend at Lindsey’s situation for a few months.

I hate the flopping and I hate the fake injuries and I hate the arbitrary clock timing and I hate most of these announcers but it sure is fun to watch.

I mean just read the part where the author identifies extremely obvious methodological issues with the survey data that underpin Gray’s entire argument and Gray seems totally surprised and says he’ll add a footnote, and then tell me this seems like a fair arbiter of the evidence.

lol yes the argument sounds quite bizarre and extremely unlikely to be better supported by evidence than the devices/internet argument.

Sent chapters 1-12 to a friend for review. Book #2 is almost in the bag! 💪

lol well she's gonna lose anyway but it's good to know she'll have very little power if she happens to win (the new policy is good regardless of who wins, for many reasons, see edpolicyinca.org/publications...)

We are regularly now at 5-6, down from 10-14. I don’t think we will ever recover. This also creates all other kind of knock-on effects, like the economics of offering a range of courses.

He's gotta go (he already should have gone).

Who could imagine the most corrupt organization doing corrupt things at the behest of the most corrupt president! Anyway soccer is still great.

For every Argentina-Cabo Verde, there’s a Colombia-Ghana. 🥲
