Yes thank you - Healthsource, Neighborhood - I assume the states rename to avoid Medicaid stigma, but that’s unfortunate in these “OBBB” times.

IDK who McGowan is (or DogMom), but this is an important point to consider. In RI it’s Neighborhood Health.

Each time a remotely progressive candidate wins office in the US, the rich declare they're going to leave town. What do they actually do? Nothing. A 2016 study found only 0.04% of millionaires move in a given year due to tax increases. Rich people talk to feel important. Please properly tax them.

OK, I replied to the Drezner post -- I think! -- I replied to the comment requesting alt text, I replied to myself, I replied to Cassie. This is me posting from a computer instead of a phone. Verbose > parsimonious, and meta commentary. Time to walk outside.

Wesleyan ✅ Sociology ✅. Response 2/2: Yay Roth. Boo Rojas. (Wasn't he a scatterplot coauthor? I thought all of us early-social-media sociologists were automatically on the same team.) More next on Yay Roth.

Wesleyan ✅ Sociology ✅. Bluesky tech response, 1/2: So I just spent 10 min whittling the pictured quote into short enough text to respond to the request (on this post) for alt text. Looks like my phone can "read" text in an image, but my laptop cannot.

I think this is true, which is why you can expect a full-on assault on ranked choice from both major parties over the next year-plus. They'll frame it as "your vote doesn't count in ranked choice," which won't be true or make sense, but when has that stopped any of them

Donald Trump has singled out three people in Congress for ridicule, particularly about their intelligence. I'm trying to think of the things they all have in common. It will come to me.

Brownshirt ICE rolled up to my local Home Depot today and got the F-off treatment. Shoutout to this woman because this is exactly how it’s done. No badge, face covered = F*ck all the way off. 📌 It’s on us citizens to stand up for our vulnerable brothers and sisters.

Rewatched terminator 2 last night. Fun movie about AI leading to nuclear war and how the easiest way to kill someone is to dress up like a cop. Can't say its themes resonate today.

2/2 There’s a mismatch between work that makes the world a little better, and work that earns somebody tenure (or just a promotion). One piece of the cowardice & corporatization of higher ed.

CLARIFICATION : The Trevor Project's hotline will still be live. But basically this means LGBTQ people can no longer be connected to it through the US national 988 suicide prevention hotline. They will need to be contacted DIRECTLY So spread this around They can be texted. They can be called.

Every president invades someplace: it’s worse than just Bush and Trump. “Lying” v “Stupid” a false dichotomy, of course. I highly recommend the docu Why We Fight: youtu.be/8KH6FWs99Aw?...

Honestly I wondered about the safety of tanks in DC, ever since something similar killed my cousin! Swear to God: google Constance Holden.

You will never get a livable wage. You will never get free or affordable healthcare. You will never get lower college tuition or reduced college debt. You will never have affordable housing, be it a house or an apartment. You will never have these things …until y’all stop hating Black People.

There’s always a tweet.

Hope so!
