Ach, I missed that! I’m glad you agree though; it’s a bit of consilience between the projects that’s nice to see.

I hope it's helpful! I genuinely enjoyed both of these books and it was a lot of fun to put them in conversation with one another.

Stocking up on blue Gatorade 😭

actual tears in my eyes. grateful. so much wrong right now. this is a small right.

Truly! Putting together a good lecture—one with substance (but not overwhelm), interactive elements, and a structure that’s easy for students to follow—and delivering it well requires a host of difficult skills.

Flipped classrooms were made up by Big Pedagogy to sell more pedagogy.

Yes!! I think people dislike having to sit quietly and do nothing else, but goddamn if podcasts (not to mention multi-hour video essays on Youtube) don’t debunk the idea that lectures themselves are the problem.

Looks like I need to do some maintenance! I'll look into it today. Thanks very much for the note! :)

Mexico was robbed 😭

OMG VAR WTFFFFFFF

Whoa I did *not* realize you could catch Peterson Posting Disease.

ESSENCE OF THE SUN
(P sure this flavor is basically Smarties, if you were wondering about licking the sun.)

Worse! They *politely request* endnotes, thereby rendering authors complicit in their own corruption!

“Uses end notes” is a valid reason to reject a paper, yes?

Look, the thing about bait is that bait is also food.

May her hair shine always like the sea-ee-ee-eeee

I think maybe the intuition is that undeserved *rewards* are wrong to give. So, undeserved goods are good to give as long as they’re not given as rewards.

Gali.

This has to be satire right?
“The reality of being a woman is fulfilling the role-based social expectations of womanhood, so definitely trans women aren’t women.”

Finally, I’ll just have the last square filled in with the address of the lab

*Literally* a Lovecraftian horror.

Doing some deontic logic today like

Why are we like this? ;_;

We will call them Contrary to Liam Obligations from now on, for the sake of clarity.
