#DOGE #fucktards claim $55B of savings through their cuts—but that’s because they #can’t do #SimpleMath or be bothered to #CheckTheirWork. The actual amount is $6.5B tops. And that’s not even considering the #damage their cuts have done. 🙄🤬

“[The Israelis] blew up my house, levelled my land, and... enjoyed cutting down the trees.” In Lebanon's Naqoura, returning townspeople are saddened and perplexed by the ferocity of Israel's pointless destruction aje.io/9nd1pm

Seems like it’s time to give The Man in the High Castle a rewatch… youtu.be/xzqwaRPPi6M #Resist #FightFascism

A good #thread to share widely. Encourage reading through the whole thing. #Resist #FightFascism

Imo it's bad that the US government now operates as a crudely extractive mercantile state because the dumbest people on earth think doing so is macho, and the entirely predictable consequence of this will be a mass rearmament in countries already facing anaemic growth and fraying social contracts.

“Have a #ValentinesDay”… Just posting this #throwback to a party flyer for an annual event I threw back in my #gradschool days. Be sure to zoom in and read the Matt Groening cartoons about #love—highly recommended! 😆 #AntiValentinesDayParty 🖤💔🥳🎉

President Trump banning the Associated Press from an event over their usage of "Gulf of Mexico" instead of "Gulf of America" may seem more absurd than alarming, but Trump's attacks on the free press are no joke.

You just read this, if only because the trumpers would like you not to. Gree download for two weeks

I’ll be leading one of the sessions for this again this year in June. 😁

Sorry for my handwriting but I fixed it

What a complete #fucking #psychopath. 🤬

Wondering how many of the noble truths you could teach through Bruce Springsteen songs. The first is easy he's basically a bluesman, and Hungry Heart is not bad way of introducing the second. I imagine it'll get difficult once you get into the details of the eightfold path.

Our second #Philosophy #Colloquium Series talk of the term at @UNLV.bsky.social is Friday 2/14 at 3pm in CHB C213. Prof. Leo Groarke will discuss “Assessing Visual Arguments: Toward a ‘Multimodal’ Logic”. www.unlv.edu/event/assess...

So, there was at least one #hero at the #SuperBowl. ✊🇵🇸❤️

A great website tracking all the companies that have bent the knee to Trump and eliminated their DEI programs, and all the companies that have stood strong. www.dei.watch

#NeonReverb is teaming up with #DirtyRockNRollDanceParty to bring you this #banger of a show on Friday, April 11! More info and #tickets at www.tickettailor.com/events/dirty...?

FDR's VP ...KNEW.

Pure #insanity.

‘Endorsement of ethnic cleansing’ Donald Trump’s call for the US to “take over” and “own” Gaza during news conference with Israeli PM Netanyahu prompts condemnations and forceful rejections of the proposal aje.io/l57bot

Huh, I thought that #invading foreign territories and subjecting its population to #EthnicCleansing was a #violation of #InternationalLaw, a #WarCrime, and a #CrimeAgainstHumanity.

Just watched this yesterday. Absolutely brilliant. Check it out for free on the Kanopy app. www.kanopy.com/video/14940555

Trump 2.0 is taking down entire websites in its attempt to memory hole efforts to bring diversity & equity to the government workforce. This piece from @lisalsong.bsky.social shows how the Trump's anti-DEI purge is also making more targeted excisions of important historical facts & context:

The Internet Archive has to date downloaded 500 terabytes of US government websites, which it crawls at the end of every presidential term. The whole archive is fully searchable. This effort's housed by a donation-funded nonprofit, not a branch of the US government. blog.archive.org/2024/05/08/e...

Rogue #ZionistBot converts to #AntiZionism and lands on the truth… ✊🇵🇸 #FreePalestine

Jennings: This salute trutherism is outrageous.  Rampell: Do it right now on TV! If you think it’s a normal way to greet people, do it right now on TV. Why won’t you?!

Trump has just stopped up the arteries of American science. Maybe he opens them back up but immense damage is going to be done every day this goes on. Ironically, the "woke" humanities and arts will be least affected, because they don't get much fed funding anyway.

Our first #Philosophy Colloquium Series talk of the semester at @unlv.bsky.social is on Friday 1/31 at 3pm in CHB C213. Prof. Allison Wolf with discuss, “Beyond Borders: Creating a New Philosophy of Migration from Colombia Up”. #philsky www.unlv.edu/event/beyond...

Sadly pretty accurate.

We’re getting past “early” at this point…

This Spring term Profs Ian Dove and @JAWoodbridge.bsky.social are co-teaching two courses at @UNLV.bsky.social — PHIL 452.1001: Aesthetics (MW 10:00-11:15 ) and PHIL 130.1001: Philosophy and Film (MW 11:30-12:45).

John Martin Fischer, an APA Pacific Division past president, on compassion and the LA fires.

Our amazing friend, and musician, Bonnie Bloomgarden of @deathvalleygirls.bsky.social has been displaced from her home in Altadena. She has always been one to help others, and deeply cares about her community -- so let's show her that same support & love! every bit adds up 🖤 bit.ly/SupportBonnie

To be clear, it's not some antisemitic conspiracy theory that US lawmakers voted to ban TikTok in order to shut down criticism of Israel among young people. They openly admitted that this was in fact what they were doing.
