Addison Cain was living in Kyoto, volunteering at a shrine and studying indigenous Japanese religion. She was supposed to be working on a scholarly book about her research, but started writing intensely erotic Batman fan fiction instead.

#okay i think she’s deeply in the wrong here BUT #who among us has not found ourselves writing deeply erotic batman fanfic on accident?

[…] we don’t want to be heroes. We are regular people. I don’t have a medical degree. I wasn’t trained to be a first responder. We shouldn’t be asked to risk our lives to come into work. But we are. And someone has to be held accountable for that, and that person is you.

Online academic resource JSTOR has announced it is making its database accessible to the public, amid the widespread closure of universities across the world due to the coronavirus pandemic.

The database, frequently used by university students for research and essay work, announced on Twitter today that it has made over 6,000 ebooks and over 150 journals accessible without the need for an online login.

Previously, students needed a university login to access these resources.

This is the first time that the database has been openly accessible to non-subscribers.

The database is also working to expand on the amount of free content available online to students accessing the database through their subscribed universities.

@jstor is bae

Y’all this was a deep misunderstanding of a tweet we sent earlier that was meant to remind people/let new people know that the #openaccess content on JSTOR is open and free. You can search and download it without a login, and there’s actually a lot of types of scholarship (link below). This publication unfortunately (along with many other people) thought we were opening up the archive, which we can’t do. We don’t own the scholarship on JSTOR, the publishers do, and we have agreements with them - it’s not up to us to open their content.  But we work with publishers who want their open content on JSTOR - which we then include in this resource: https://about.jstor.org/oa-and-free/

We also did reach out the the publication to clarify and they’ve since updated.

Surprise. :)

romans: conquer a shitload of the known world, including parts of africa and the middle east

romans: institute a policy that says that conquered peoples are allowed to gain citizenship by military service, but also can’t serve in their home areas (because armed native soldiers + angry locals = revolt), thus requiring everyone who wants to be a citizen to work abroad for years of their lives, creating diversity.

racists: a single black person in an educational video about rome is unrealistic and i feel attacked.

AWARE

You understand the problem. You see the cracks in reality and you want to crawl into them. You see things that other people don’t notice. You are well positioned to make a change in this world. Your anger is a gift.
