While on the phone with my twin she started talking to someone else. Apparently, a man passed her on the street and asked if he could ask her a riddle: What do Winnie the Poo, Katherine the Great, and John the Baptist all have in common?

A colleague at Stanford’s business school used The Stanford Daily to argue—poorly—against DEI. The piece was riddled with historical errors and left one searching for fact, so I broke my public writing hiatus to respond. I hope you’ll read and share the piece. stanforddaily.com/2025/04/22/w...

It's time to double-down on #TeslaTakedown. Double. Down. even after he's gone. No one who has done what he's done should be in any position of power.

I feel like we need to keep saying this because it’s so insane: This is a legal U.S. resident who has been detained for over a month now for his political opinions.

So this interview lasted 2 hours so this “you’re scaring me” part might seem like an overreaction or fearmongering to someone without that context. There’s a lot of evidence to support my hypothesis that a potential H5N1 pandemic would be worse than COVID.

Hegseth’s family gets to see war plans but we can’t get basic info about which of our grad students they’re targeting for deportation.

I care less about Signal chats and more about the blacksite offshore concentration camps we're sending random people to without any semblance of a trial, so I'll be interested to see if the national media can rub their bellies and pat their heads at the same time this week. Historically they can't.

Mike Johnson doesn’t get nearly enough attention for his role in dismantling democracy. He should be as infamous as Trump and Musk.

This is the impact of Trump, Musk, and Republican cowardice (or as Murkowski put it, fear of losing their job) If there is a next time around, I hope people who voted for a man who said he wanted to be an authoritarian on day one—-I hope they realize their votes (their actions) have consequences.

We were clear from our discussions with experts on authoritarianism back in 2020 that if Trump had a second term he would go after non-profits. That’s what they do.

The president of the United States is a convicted felon. Seems relevant to today’s news. Yet a search of the New York Times website shows the term “convicted felon” hasn’t appeared there since Jan. 23.

IMHO both are valid options and it depends on the institution. Also, the latter implies the former should be included if you raze anything. Lastly, as someone who builds programs with accountability always in the Venn diagram, sometimes (not always) razing is required.
