governments should spend money, literally all their fucking money. on taking care of the people from whom they got the money. on building cool shit for the people from whom they got the money to use, like highways and public works. this is real easy how can these people be so bad at this

I’ve had a few people ask “oh, so is disagreeing with Gavin Newsom on trans athletes a PURITY TEST?” And yes, protecting trans people from discrimination is a vital purity test. It is pathetic and disgusting how many people who claim to be Democrats are failing it.

When I was a grad student at UVa, I deeply enjoyed when people would just fucking troll the Monticello tour guides about Sally Hemmings.

I’ve been apprised that this is an old photo of cool Gavin doing a “troll” of those who want books like these banned. I apologize. I didn’t know he was so invested in freedoms that he did a picture. Trans people are not bookshelf-sized so they can be banned from things. Gavin doesn’t make the rules!

What’s so funny to me about this pic is the amount of pages turned. Clearly he isn’t just a few pages into Beloved and someone took this. He had to think about how far into the book he should be and thought being, like, in the middle would look staged but decided “30 pages in is believable”

If a university spokesperson was doing this it would be national news, and used as justification for the federal government to defund the university. The truth is that antisemitism is just one of the excuses they are using to justify destroying independent institutions.

i’m sorry, i’m tired of this shit. there was no pronoun policing. i have encountered exactly three or four land acknowledgments in like ten years, and the most you’ll hear about “intersectionality” is in liberal nonprofits. this is just freefloating resentment masquerading as analysis.

It would be helpful if more people understood renewable energy is actually an extremely disruptive technology and the reason monied interests are trying to make folks hate it is that they are the ones which will be disrupted.

Thankfully the American people threw out the administration that oversaw high monthly job growth—AKA the worst economy in history—and replaced it with one deliberately causing job loss. #Populism

Had a bunch of conversations before the election and again before inauguration about what US support for UA would look like under Trump. I said "he'll wind it back, and cancel it entirely. 3 months if we're lucky". Folks said it was "alarmist and pessimistic". Anyway, turns out answer was 5 weeks.

when i was a baby PhD student, i used to find so many scientific papers difficult to follow and thought that meant i just didn't understand what was in them. several years later, i'm pretty sure that those papers were just badly written.

So, wait. For basically ever, men were earning way more than their female counterparts, and the messaging was that women were "too emotional" or whatever. And the second women start earning more than men, men completely lose their shit and it's a "crisis" "gripping" them? What a bunch of losers.
