Disgrace, indeed.

A long time ago in a manuscript far, far away.... Happy #StarWarsDay! – #MayTheFourthBeWithYou, always.

ICE must be stopped

Congratulations, Canada.

Words matter

So… this was supposed to be about Paul Revere’s ride, but the Senator just unloaded about the Trump administration and its Republican enablers. Far more newsworthy than I expected. (You can probably see me shifting to “crap, this was not the interview I prepped!” but the result was memorable.)

Same.

More nationwide protests planned for this Saturday, April 19. Here’s the one in nyc. Find yours at @50501movement.bsky.social

Yep

Yep.

WTF

Universities take note

This.

NYC #handsoff

😎

This resonates on so many levels. Universities included.

Pulled it down.

Good trouble.

Gosh. If only there were an historical analogue we could study to learn about the horrors of rounding people up without due process and sending them to torture camps in other countries.

More universities bowing down.

The Pentagon is apparently going to share its most sensitive war plans for China with Elon Musk I’m not sure that people have even noticed this So I will repeat it THE PENTAGON IS APPARENTLY GOING TO SHARE ITS MOST SENSITIVE WAR PLANS FOR CHINA WITH ELON MUSK Worried yet?

Hey, @catsonacouch.bsky.social, according to the Episcopal calendar, March 17 is the feast day of Saint Gertrude of Nivelles, the patron saint of cats, and the people who love them.

Today Donald Trump attacked me by name in a speech at the Department of Justice. Of course I am worried, but courage comes from acting in spite of being worried. I have made my choice: I will continue to speak out, I will continue to litigate, I will continue to stand tall. I will never bow down.

Wowsa.

🚨 Everyone needs to call their Dem Senator right now. They are starting to cave. Tell them: 1. Vote NO on Cloture AND 2. Vote NO on the Republican spending bill. Don’t let them pivot to reconciliation. GOP doesn’t need Dem votes on that and they know it. TODAY is the showdown. 🤳🏽: (202) 224-3121

re the previous repost: if they can disappear permanent residents they can disappear citizens

As universities engage in more "death spiral" cuts to academia, we need to focus on the intense bureaucratisation of the C21 university. A wannabe D-VC implements travel management outsourcing, and massive costs ensue. They've moved on before the disaster unfolds: academic.oup.com/brain/articl...

Every college now gets to choose whether to be a Georgetown or a Columbia in the face of this administration and I think we all know which one they're going to choose.
