I don't think I ever ask my students what they want to be when they grow up. It's still all around us though bc many of them talk about it.

I promised myself I wouldn’t become the old person who asks kids stuff like this. 😂😂 it takes A Lot of work not to do it. Like a spirit comes over you that says, “and so do you have a little friend at school?!” You must resist.

we had a self-directed teacher work day today. which means we didn't have to sit in meetings, we could actually do work. it's the first one we've had since august. which says a lot about our profession.

Uncle Munk weekend advice: Slow down. The most important thing to get done this weekend is taking care of you. Spend a few extra minutes on you. Call your friend you've been meaning to call. Sit outside in the sun. Go to that coffee shop you keep passing by. Life ain't what you do it's what you feel

Students are being harassed on/near campus by ICE (Fuck ICE) and faculty are like “let’s host a panel on the implications of ICE aggressions on students and then let’s publish a paper.” PROTECT YOUR STUDENTS. DEMAND ADMIN PROTECTS THEM. #resist #academicsky

There is literally no ethical use of genAI. 🔥 It's built on theft. 🔥 It consumes vast environmental resources. 🔥 It consumes vast financial resources to support it. No company currently touting their "ethical" genAI has attempted to address all three. Once they do then MAYBE a discussion begins.

"A terrified young student, snatched off the street by a masked police force taken thousands of miles across the country without anyone knowing. It is as flatly authoritarian as anything we have ever seen in this country," says Chris Hayes on Tufts student Rumeysa Ozturk's detention.

Defend the liberty of a stranger as you would defend your own, or that of a loved one, because that is what's actually on the table—whether we are a society that will sit still as our neighbors are snatched in the night, and disappeared into darkness, or a society that will fight for each other.

Let's be really really clear. The Trump admin chose a Palestinian activist as the target of its first lawless political detention precisely BECAUSE they believe that will split the opposition. If you shrug at the abduction of Mahmoud Khalil, or worse, cheer it on, you're following Trump's script.

There was a lot of #AcademicFreedom, good scholarship, and independent thought in German universities before Hitler. After Hitler had risen to power, many academics fled the country. Some resisted the Nazi regime and were persecuted. Most adapted to a new situation. Here are some examples. 1/n

It would be great to have a downloadable well-researched zine or handout called something like "Better Than A Tesla" - that offers people suggestions for better EV's to purchase than Tesla. Why not educate folks about better consumer choices while picketing?

I've worked for years with survivors of intimate partner violence (both as a job and as a volunteer since 1991). Some of the white and white-adjacent columnists & op-ed people in the U.S. sound like abusers do when they tell their victims that they got hit because they pushed them too far.
