@roguewpa I logged back into Twitter briefly and saw these two tweets next to each other: https://twitter.com/ellegist/status/1350154591195815941 https://twitter.com/acczibit/status/1350173745315532801
@Connor the really scary thing is like 2/3 of the slots this year are for race. there's generally no hiring this year but deans have a "there's always room for Jello" mentality about wokeness
@roguewpa it’s deans pushing this and not department chairs?
@roguewpa lol did you turn on awoo mode in your client?
@Connor
Don't even know what that is. Using Fedilab on my Pixel and web interface on my laptop.
@roguewpa oh, one mobile client has “awoo mode” that changes all occurrences of “toot” to “awoo.” I guess that’s the default on some other clients
@Connor
It's deans or higher, not chairs, deciding this. Or at least it's mostly deans or higher. Too complicated to explain in a tweet or toot or whatever this is
