How do I reconcile my hatred for ChatGPT with the fact that it's an invaluable tool to translate Romanian news on the spot for my Japanese partner so he can understand what the hell is happening in my country.

You are not powerless, and he is not unstoppable. Look at, and learn from, the funding freeze and how quickly he was forced to surrender.

I... do not understand this new construction of masculinity? it's not athletic. it's not stoic. it's not handsome. it's not accomplished. it's never been intellectual. it's just rich white loud dudes on the TV who look like they don't wash their genitals? is that it?

I have felt for quite a while that Japanese academia is becoming a refuge for scholars all over the world who are censored or marginalised in Europe and the US. With the recent censorship undergoing in the US, not just Japan but SK and China are bound to become more appealing.

I have to share online because in real life everyone tells me “just enjoy your life there’s nothing you can do “ and “ oh no I don’t think it’s so bad” Kind of the same responses I got when i was the only one freaking out about Covid in February 2020

Intermittent reminder that 'AI' is a broad name for a huge range of technologies, some of which are really useful and have no negative effects, some of which are pretty useless and/or based on plagiarism. The existence of one doesn't negate the existence of the other.

I had many discussions with American friends about why I thought affirmative action is not a good solution because it doesn't fix the underlying problem. I never thought that the problem it was covering was fascism. Does gratitude for women and black people burn these aholes' lizard skin?

but this will sow distrust between current recruits as well. America will lose its wars faster than Russia failed in Kiev in 2022. How will they "take over"Greenland and Canada with an incompetent army? They might lose territory actually. Fast implosion www.military.com/daily-news/2...

if you only cancel when you are the one affected you're not as big a part of the solution as you think. Comments on annexing Greenland should've sickened you already. www.thetravel.com/us-travel-as...

My semi-frequent cranky reminder that your job as a humanities peer reviewer is to figure out what the article wants to say and offer comments to help it get there (or note that it can't, in rare cases). That's it. That's literally all you have to do.

January turned out to be a very eventful and fruitful Month for this PhD student. Yesterday I was informed that my second article on the role of indie/game events organised by expats in Japan was accepted for publication after a short round of minor revisions. Yay!
