Gen A.I. barons want us talkinge alone on our phones to a demon thei created, and not goinge places and being wyth each othir yn art and joy and communitye. Thei want cinemas to shut downe and broadwaye to go darke. Thei want wryteres to stop writinge. Thei want to build hell and have us pay for it.
No gloves!!
My book is now available open access on project muse, with OAPen launch coming soon. Hard copies should start going out this week (if they have not already): you can get yours for 50% off with code SAR50.
REPEAT AFTER ME (but really, after Neil Kraus):
Wage stagnation and underemployment are not problems that education can fix. We cannot "upskill" students into well-paying jobs that do. not. exist.

The week before that I was speaking at UPenn @sims-mss.bsky.social. That talk was recorded and is now available to watch on their YouTube channel: www.youtube.com/watch?v=r3eu...
Are you passionate about early medieval Britain? Â Do you have advanced knowledge of Old English and proficiency in Medieval Latin? Â If yes, then you may be interested in this fixed term full time post...
Do not accept the premise that education is to blame for abysmal jobs outcomes.
“The fantasy economy's framing of economic inequality… focuses exclusively on education…deflects attention away from decades of public policies and changing business practices that have…contributed to stagnating wages”
What's something that experts/practitioners in your field universally agree upon, but that remains a "hot take" among the general public?
