Today in 1942 was another date which should live in infamy—President Franklin Delano Roosevelt signed Executive Order 9066, leading to the forced eviction, property forfeiture, and internment of some 120,000 people of Japanese ancestry living on the West Coast, about 70,000 of whom were US citizens.

Goodnight, dear friends. On a day when our government continues to try to erase the existence of transgender folks, be encouraged to keep up the fight, keep up the love. Power to the people. I love you.

Last night we started watching The X-Files again. 👽 I won't call it a rewatch because this time around we are watching only the myth arc episodes, while last time we exclusively watched the monster-of-the-week episodes. Of all 11 seasons.

I was just told that I have to remove “climate” from the title of an ongoing grant if I want to keep it. And publications from that grant cannot include “climate” and other forbidden words. I can’t believe I’m writing this from the United States of America. #AcademicSky

On and off, I have been reading this. It's amazing how many different cultural facets of the movie Marlena Williams illuminates in her book. She does a good job at pointing out the different layers of the horror. Listen to the podcast and if you want to know more, get the book!

As much as I hate comparisons to the handmaid's tale, I keep thinking about the opening in the series when women wake up one day and find themselves locked out of their bank accounts.
