Lee Jae-myung, South Korea’s new president, left school at 13 to work in factories and suffered an injury that left him with a disability. He then started studying at night to become a human rights lawyer. He now leads the country. 🇰🇷❤️ #HumanRights #Democracy

On Sunday, my friend, Jonathan Joss was murdered and it took me a minute to find the words... Like so many of our lives, Jonathan's existed at the powerful intersections of Indigeneity, queerness, visibility, and vulnerability. He was fierce, funny, flawed, and real in every way that mattered.

Selling off national parks to private corporations is theft — of land, ecosystems, and public trust. Once they’re sold, they’re stripped, drilled, mined, and wrecked. And most of that damage can’t be undone.

My take on Elon Musk and his plan to leave government. www.economist.com/united-state... With a mini scoop at the end - the workers going back into the United States Institute of Peace offices found a whole bunch of weed apparently thrown away by the DOGE staffers who had been hanging out there

The President of the United States can't simply accuse his predecessor in the White House of being a clone or a robot. He must pick one: clone or robot. The implications are staggering either way but the American people deserve answers.

Good on them: Macalester, St. Olaf, and Carleton are all providing summer housing for international students who are terrified they won’t be able to return to school if they go home for the summer break. (But imagine how homesick these people will be, on top of the stress: & expense.) No paywall

Remember the cat that survived a 400-ft fall in her carrier in Bryce Canyon, Utah? Well, the helicopter pilot, Chelsea Tugaw, who responded to the accident on the day the cat was rescued has adopted her. The cat's name is Mirage. Happy Caturday.

I’m devastated to hear my friend of 50 years has passed. Just spoke to her 2 days ago & she was her usual feisty, hysterically funny self. This is a hard one. I was her 1st house guest in her new home in 1975 & helped her paint her NYC apartment. Just heartbroken. So hard to lose old friends.💔💔💔

Andry José Hernández Romero, I remember you, even if I do not know how to articulate my horror, rage, & sorrow at your treatment by my government. No one has heard from you in 77 days. As vigil, I’m posting a photo (& today a video) of you every day until you are returned from El Salvador.

There are 2 previous historical cases of countries destroying their science and universities, crippling them for decades: Lysenkoism in the USSR and Nazi Germany. The Trump administration will be the 3rd. It's not just budgets but research, institutions, expertise, and training the next generation.
