A musher was cut from the Iditarod for being too far behind. He went to Nome anyway. adn.com/outdoors-adven…

@jjmcvey @PetreRaleigh Not a solution in the humanities, where the purpose of writing assignments is to help students learn to think.
English
@PetreRaleigh Then stop including assignments in class grades. Pin the grade on one or two in-class tests plus the end of term exam. Make assignments be solely about research as prep for that, so that those who use AI as a substitute for their own understanding will fail the tests and exams.

Can't even describe how much I hate what AI has done to the process of grading student work. I hate finding it, I hate the paranoia it fosters, I hate the confrontations with students who have used it. Nothing else in my experience has ever changed my job this much for the worse

Sorry for tweeting so much, but Twitter throttles out-bound links, so I'm trying this again.
SoCal animal shelters are overwhelmed with people dropping off injured animals they can't take with them as they flee. Many are in need of volunteers, money, and foster homes 🧵

The voters have spoken and our campaign has won.
Wisconsinites chose someone who always puts them first, shows up, listens, and works with everyone to get the job done. I'm proud to head back to the Senate to keep fighting for our workers, farmers, and families that make our state great.
From the bottom of my heart, thank you.

This is such a welcome change from the performative toxic masculinity of the incel brigade at the RNC

Walz’s son is in tears

Oprah’s not doing a great job of convincing me that she shouldn’t run for office

@jenwith_1_n @mobydickenergy Haha some dude on Tinder asked me who I was voting for in the primary and when I told him Clinton he informed me that she had “literally murdered more than 40 people.” I was like, wow, in that case I’m definitely voting for her!
English
@mobydickenergy I went on a first date in early 2016 on which I admitted I had reservations about Bernie - didn’t even say I was going to vote for Hillary - and the rest of the date was the guy yelling questions about Bernie’s policies at me to force a “gotcha.”
English
you have no fucking clue man. the 2016 election was an extremely dark hour. it was scary and embarrassing to say you wanted a woman president
Kraz Greinetz@krazgreinetz
This is why I cringe when people say "wow Kamala has the juice!! I haven't seen this since Obama!" Yes you have, it was called the Clinton 2016 campaign. She was the media darling, had the vaunted "ground game," and Trump was constantly clowned for gaffs, barely having GOTV, etc.

@mollybackes Counterpoint: I already got to threaten my wife that I would make the Walz family hot dish.
English
The worst thing about the Walz pick is that we’re in for 3 months (8 years???) of the rest of the country misusing the phrase “Minnesota nice.”

@suesswassersee In Iowa, your dad takes the long way home so he can judge the neighborhood fields. “Dat’s some dirty beans” is a devastating indictment of a man’s farming prowess.

Crowdsourcing: men who stan their uber-talented and famous wife or girlfriend HARD. So far, I have Travis Kelce, Doug Emhoff, and Alex Ohanian. Who are the others?

Only recently did I realize that it’s not normal to take your baby to the bar in other parts of the country, lol. How else are they gonna learn how to pull a pint for you?

Every time I leave Utah I realize how big a relief it is to be able to take my kid to dinner and not have to make phone calls & worry about whether she's allowed to eat there.

@BlairBraverman @JamesFrye CONGRATULATIONS JEEMS & WICKSON!!!
English
Friends, an experiment has been going on.
Wickson has been at Jeems' house for a bit now, to see how he'd like active pet life... and it's clear that this is the home he's meant to be in.
These two are family forever.
English
Friends, we have some very happy news about Wickson...
