I thoroughly enjoyed this fun new entry into the campus novel genre, about an academic couples' unraveling marriage, presented in the form of an MFA thesis. and for the real freaks out there, it includes a brief mention of our fav chaotic U Chicago philosophy professor

this @404media.co article by @jasonkoebler.bsky.social does a great job laying out the sloppy future social media is barreling towards. and includes this amazingly ambiguous, dead-inside, genAI 'family' showing their support for 'the blue team' at the world series
