“I do not believe that things will turn out well, but the idea that they might is of decisive importance.” — Max Horkheimer

The United States is history’s grandest failed experiment. Not just American primacy, but the American version of modernity and capitalist civilisation. Its supporters and co-conspirators, at home and abroad, are the enemies of the human race. I’m tired of pretending otherwise.

We had an exceptional applicant pool

Hard disagree. "Who you know" should matter less. If your work is good you should be able to place it well and explain why it matters. Often the main signal from letters is how much of a favour you'd be doing to someone powerful in the field. We don't use letters in our searches.

Iran’s missiles will expose that the empire doesn’t bend because it has a conscience, but because armed resistance imposes real costs on it. The axis of resistance is forcing the imperial core to panic in self-preservation, & the myth of U.S. supremacy is getting a hard check.

Please think about the opportunity cost of that PhD. Yes, you’ll have a few years to think and read. But you’ll also be socialised into a cult that will likely expel you after you’ve given it your best years. Or it will keep you on as a marginal servant of sorts. I just got lucky

academic conferences are crazy because it’s like Let’s go to the most beautiful place in the world and then look at powerpoints for 12 straight hours

Hold dat pussy

becoming ever clearer what this datacenter build out is for

The cross is part of the mission. The imperialist occupation of the world is disrupted from within; the violence that until now has been the law is unmasked. The poor, imprisoned, and rejected Messiah descends into the darkness of death, yet in so doing He brings a new creation

BREAKING: Iran has delivered its highly anticipated "10-point" response to the US' "15-point peace plan." Iran's 10-point plan includes: 1. Guarantee that Iran will not be attacked again 2. Permanent end to the war, not just a ceasefire 3. End to Israeli strikes in Lebanon 4.

Statement on behalf of the Supreme National Security Council of the Islamic Republic of Iran:

This means that it has to happen at any and all costs

Dudes going to make a t shirt out of it and sell you it for a months wage

yall only say this because he’s a pacifist. aang is always going to nerf himself when he fights. Even in the finale battle between him and Ozai he held back even though it could’ve killed him because he didn’t want to kill Ozai. It’s who Aang is. Nothing will change that.

Woe to those who manipulate religion and the very name of God for their own military, economic, and political gain, dragging that which is sacred into darkness and filth. #ApostolicJourney #Cameroon vatican.va/content/leo-xi…

When simulation becomes the norm, it weakens the human capacity for discernment. As a result, our social bonds close in upon themselves, forming self-referential circuits that no longer expose us to reality. We thus come to live within bubbles, impermeable to one another.

Economics can either enable the slide toward fascism, or defend affordability, dignity, and democracy. I wrote ANTI-FASCIST ECONOMICS with my baby by my side—a constant reminder that the future should be livable for all. Out in October with Random House Group.

Honestly, so many complaints about writing style in continental philosophy seem to boil down to “if there are insights in there, why can’t they be expressed in the style of a technical manual?”.
