Kelly Clarkson to Las Culturistas on AI music: “It’s controversial, I don’t care - I love AI.

I have an new essay in differences! “New Material for the Old Ceremony” is a deconstruction of Lynn Margulis’s Origins of Sex, her downright weird writings on politics, and new materialists who see liberatory potential in microbiology (happy to share the PDF!)

the way i would be so much more chill on the job market if they just standardized requesting letters of reference for long- or short-listed candidates. please save both me and my references the time our email exchanges, their writing, etc.!!

praying the discourse(tm) on this catalyzes a bunch of work on why the contemporary reanimation of race science is bad, but knowing, in my heart, it will just catalyze more race science 😭😭
