In the UK and Ireland an enclosed piece of grassy land next to a house is called a "garden", whether or not any flowers or vegetables are being grown there. In the USA and Canada, this would generally be called a "yard". Interestingly both these words come from the same Germanic source! #etymology

ah yeah so if this is true, these figures are comparable to where we were with COVID-19 on about March 9, 2020.

Hey, just a quiet reminder: it’s not true that people get more conservative as they age. Populations get more conservative as they age because poor and marginalized people die sooner. nymag.com/intelligence...

given that we don't have a no-confidence mechanism, i wish impeachment and removal of the president had precedent and was actually frequent in our history.

f you're concerned about rising iPhone prices, why not build a rare earth metal "victory mine" in your own backyard? It's easy with tools you probably have around the house (rotary blasthole drill, gravity concentrater, high capacity XL-class vibrating screen, a few dozen wage laborers, scissors)

The origin story of Bari Weiss and The Free Press is that they were fighting for free speech, but the real origin story is that as a student she tried to get Middle Eastern professors fired. They are a snitch organization for the Trump regime.

What are the moral obligations of the citizens of a country that embarks on an unjust war of conquest against an allied nation in violation of multiple treaty obligations? Seems like we ought to be prepared to take some risks and break some laws.

Anyway, run everywhere. We're in Senator Doug Jones territory again and there's always a decent possibility the Republican will be a pedo.

I wonder if the week that they abducted and disappeared a student protestor, dismantled the Department of Education, and sent goons with burn bags to the USAID offices will be remembered as eventful 2 years from now.

The Anti Defamation League is so right, if there’s one thing that makes me feel safe as a Jew, it’s people with unpopular political opinions getting abducted by the government

This evening, Columbia/Barnard faculty, Jewish leaders, immigrant advocates, and rabbis came together to demand the immediate release of Mahmoud Khalil. We will not be silent about this outrageous assault on free speech. We will not be silent in the face of an authoritarian takeover. #FreeMahmoud

if you find yourself reluctant to support the guy at Columbia because you find some of the politics he espoused distasteful or even abhorrent, you should know that this is exactly the reaction that they hoped for in choosing him as a target for unlawful detention based on political speech.

I know this is extremely vulgar idealism, but I do think we should try to aggressively reassert the norm that lying is bad. Not in a "Four Pinnochios" fact-checking kind of way, but in a way that frames this kind of lying as moral degeneracy that is fundamentally corrosive to the human spirit.

see, here's the thing. columbia could hold a big press conference tomorrow, saying this is absolutely unacceptable and we will do anything legally possible to protect our students. Or they could shrug and say they had a warrant, maybe, we think, and we didn't like that guy anyway.

Why would any serious person speak or attend an event at Columbia? They are desperately groveling at the gouty feat of a fascist and none of their censorial capering will ever buy them any lenience.

The choice of Columbia in particular shows that there's no amount of suppression of pro-Palestinian speech a university can engage in that will insulate and protect it; so might as well try to do the right thing, which Columbia has determinedly avoided since October 7. www.gsa.gov/about-us/new...
