You can't logic your way out of being burnt out. Unless you're me. Who should be able to do it and it's a personal failing that I can't

It’s terrible. And it doesn’t help that we haven’t even quite settled on it. A weak leader in a crowded field.

It’s been a while since I last tried, and you’ve given me the confidence to keep avoiding it!

Oh no! I’m so sorry.

Ha! Let me know if you find out.

My boss in college loved it so I read the whole thing, but then I think we both lost respect for each other. It’s terrible!

(But it’s very good. I will hear of no Emma slander.)

She’s never been to the sea! They’ve never let her go to frickin London where her sister lives!

I wrote about the divide between high school and college English, and what we might do to bridge it, for @publicbooks.bsky.social—part of an excellent roundtable on higher ed under Trump organized by @dennismhogan.bsky.social

The influence of K-12 policy and pedagogy on higher ed can perhaps be seen best in the trickle-up effect of the standards of the Common Core.

And who is the author of this op-ed? The billionaire CEO of an asset management firm who helped author the compact.

I realize this is a very American solution, but if I were y’all, I’d develop a religious objection to this as soon as possible.

It’s come to my attention that some of you don’t know/forgot that Bari Weiss dated Kate McKinnon. This is a crucial element of her lore.

I see pieces like this a lot, often w/ a spin of lamenting cultural degeneration, but reading is a LABOR issue, it’s declined because so many people are working overtime or two jobs & employers expect after hours work. France has Earth’s highest reading rate b/c long lunch breaks & labor protections

Stephanie's essay on D. A. Miller on Jane Austen is, alone, worth the price of admission! It's how I'm closing out my grad seminar on close reading this semester, paired with her Norton Library edited edition of Sense and Sensibility.

All to say: buy the book! It's shipping!
