I successfully gave my lecture and connected with several respected Academics. I destroyed the Antisemitic myth of Jews "profiting" off 'reparations' and also gave a voice to the victims of Imperial Japan. This is just the beginning.

A friend asked, "How are you doing with all the Cornell stuff" & a version of this poured out. I'm on the board of a nonprofit devoted to ending campus sexual assault. It's about to die due to lack of funding. The really important stuff is bolded. Please share 💚🔥 www.moryan.com/on-cornell-t...

I've made the difficult decision to cancel my trip to AFF this year. I'm heartbroken because it's often my chance to see all of you. Everyone, have a good time and a special request to the men: PLEASE LOOK OUT FOR THE CREEPERS. I meant to do a whole intervention around this.

Two years ago, I had FIVE different women confide in me about FIVE separate incidents of harassment or assault at the festival. While you're out at the bar networking with industry professionals, we've been out here consoling each other and walking each other home.

I love how all these "how to write with AI" things start from the premise that the product is the purpose of the assignment. I promise you, there is no shortage of shitty student essays. The purpose is the process, to train specific cognitive skills. The product is a goal to help shape the process.

"AI can draft an essay for you, especially if you give it a high quality prompt." Really? This is what MIT thinks high schoolers should learn? MIT's "Day of AI" dayofai.org provides materials for K-12 teachers and claims to have reached over 5,000,000 students to date. 1/2

The IDF says it has killed Ahmed Baraka, a Hamas Nukhba terrorist who took part in the abduction of Alex Dancyg. Alex was a Holocaust educator. On October 7, Hamas terrorists took him from his home in Kibbutz Nir Oz. He died in captivity. May Alex's memory be a blessing.

Even if you compose the actual writing yourself, using AI to "brainstorm," "organize," etc. cuts off your own thoughts before they can even happen and turns you into a slop amanuensis.

If you're at Austin Film Festival - offer still stands... #scriptsky

In fact... If you're going to Austin, and you send a selfie of you in a respirator (at an event, in a room, with other people) to #scriptsky and tag me in with the name of a script you'd like notes on, I'll randomly pick two to do. I'm not the best writer in the world, but I'm not terrible.

So Bluesky is responding to the Israel election By pretending that Gaza and the West Bank should be voting in Israeli elections... Even though those regions are governed by Hamas and Fatah respectively That's so Bluesky

its interesting to me, how people were able to understand that Péter Magyar was a candidate of the center-right (or more the anti-corruption right) and that was a huge win over Orban but I keep hearing that Gadi Eisenkot, who is much more of the center, is "the same" "barely better" etc than Bibi

My colleagues in the local Austin (Where McConaughey is from) Creative/Arts industry do not like him anymore because of this.

Matthew McConaughey can kiss my ass!!! There’s always some millionaire who is at risk to lose nothing trying to tell people it’s ok to risk losing everything. #voteblue if you are serious about saving this country.

Recently in Jerusalem, Israel, thousands of people took to the streets for the annual March for Pride and Tolerance. We are proud to stand with the global LGBTQIA+ community and with the safety and security of the State of Israel. Every person deserves to live freely and without fear. #Pride

If a real Islamomexican Sharianarcoterrorist conspiracy does not exist the right-wing will furiously pretend it does because they are tired of needing to tell these browns apart

During the Obama administration the BBC was considered the model that American media should aspire to emulate and I’m not sure who ended up copying who but they sure are on the same page now

But I thought the point of the embargo and sanctions was to pressure Israelis to elect leaders who would adopt different policies? It sounds like Congresswoman Tlaib doesn't think Israel should exist at all.

Kushner took a $50 mn bribe from the Emiratis to orchestrate the firing of Rex Tillerson as secretary of state, according to Matt Cole's new book, Princes and Thieves, out today. To be clear, this is a serious felony, if true.

George Lucas said numerous times he made Star Wars for kids. Nothing has changed. Andor and Rogue One aside it's all aimed at 12 year olds. This is the most beautiful thing about Star Wars. YouTubers miss the point when they apply children's films to a desire for some DudeBro Zack Snyder cool shit.
