I'm not afraid of these people.

So a few blocks from my house there is this house owned by Nazis. This is not a joke they spray painted swastikas on their fence, house and trash cans and had various alt-right bumper stickers on one of their cars. I took some pictures of these.
Apparently the neighbors were able to force them to remove the swastikas despite first amendment arguments about this.
Because I took pictures, one of the Nazis knows who I am.
I drove by there yesterday and he saw me and he was afraid.
That's interesting.

he couldn't think of a lie that would work so he just says nonsense and no one says anything. He has no interest in childcare or taking care of children.

I would not really call my class presentations "academic publications" that's one reason I don't just jet them loose. I teach undergrads from various majors including non-STEM students so everything is simple and simplified.
I'm actively thinking about what to do next and one idea is to move the technical bar up and make it a more rigorous academic course for CS majors.
I might also go the other way and focus on high school students.
Either way, I can't do anything until I'm no longer employed by the university which will be in January unless something changes.

not currently but I may do that in the future. This is a class at UC Santa Cruz and I have not put in any of the materials online outside the internal UCSC Canvas system.
However as the grant funding for my class is apparently over after this year I am looking at various alternatives for 2025. One of those is to turn this into an online offering which i would offer directly myself.
I'm not sure if I will do that, but if I do you can be sure I will talk about it here.

Trump thinks he would win in California if Jesus counted the votes.
In Trump's tiny dysfunctional brain it's impossible for him to lose. If he loses it's because his opponent cheated not because he ran a shit campaign or insulted people he needed to vote for him.

you know I've had my eye on you for some time.
Thanks for the comment, I conclude you are not a good person and I hope never to have contact with you again.
Have a nice day.

Trump is going to regret setting up even one debate.
He can barely form a coherent thought. When he tries to explain a complex idea he fails and gets the details wrong. Instead of learning from his mistakes he just insists they weren't mistakes and he learns nothing.
The first debate is going to be super embarrassing for him so we can expect a truly insane reaction afterwards.

Thanks to the people who are opposing fascists in the UK right now, we know what to do here in the US.

they're counting on homophobia and anti-trans sentiment to carry the election but they are delusional and imagine people care about this way more than they actually do.
My Trump supporting neighbors met a friend's trans friend at my house and told me they thought they were nice and interesting.
Note this person is an economic conservative, libertarian and actually voted for Trump.
But the veil was pierced. They weren't rude and didn't leave. They liked talking to her.

how do you decide who "won"?
The problem is that Biden didn't deliver a knockout. Yes Trump persistently lied. But Biden didn't address many of the lies at all. It wasn't just his voice, he obviously forgot what he was talking about right at the beginning of the debate. Biden should have and could have crushed Trump but that isn't what happened.
