I commented on all three of the proposed passport rules with a version of the below. I am not saying this is the correct comment but I am sharing in case it’s helpful. Please comment in opposition of these changes and when you’re done, comment on the proposed FAFSA changes too.

Another says the first three weeks' writing exercises (collecting letter specimens in wk 1, concrete nouns in wk 2, phrases and sentences in wk 3, all from their direct environment —via walks and bus rides) made him realise the world is full of language, he doesn't have to do it alone #pinktheory

student 1/3-term reflections: one says she now understands that setting up and cleaning up are not distinct from making art and that our class is changing her understanding of the relationship between "manual labor" and "artmaking" (it's a writing class and this is a perfect result)

A month into the teaching semester, I'm FINALLY done building out the syllabus & course infrastructure for my True Stories class, thanks to drinking so much b-grade oolong tea that I can see through time & at the cost of multiple other efforts & my will to live. Please clap for meeee

Anyone know who’s organizing the @standupforscience.bsky.social rally in Boston? I’m going to be there (coincidentally!) on March 7 and would love to connect.

Masking up in public indoor places is relatively low-hanging fruit. You can check if your area or state has a Mask Bloc if cost is an issue. If you fear hostility, obviously judge your own risk, but this is another opportunity to practice taking a small stand against assholery!

Some fun ones for people who feel like they're in a political wilderness. (My mom's been doing the 2nd one about climate change for years!) Another thing I like about a lot of these is that many of them are likely a good, small stretch either beyond your own habits or beyond a stupid rule.

I look forward to a day when even people I’d spit on for sport get low cost or even free insulin because I hate pointless deaths under capitalism.

ICYMI: I spoke to @reproutopia.bsky.social about the feminist imperative to fight fascism, even when the fascists are other feminists (and especially when those other feminists are providing a pseudofeminist alibi to a rightwing assault on bodily autonomy and trans people)
