This is where I’ve come down in the laptops-in-the-classroom debate. If your students spend class time on their devices, the problem isn’t that laptops are too distracting—it’s that your class is too boring/irrelevant/passive.

Yes - good for Judge Myers. No doubt his ruling precipitated Jefferson Griffin's (final, belated) concession in the race for NC Supreme Court Justice.

Don’t look away. This is what Libya’s migrant detention facilities look like. This is what Trump is doing. Amnesty International called Libya’s migrant detention centers a “hellscape,” where beatings and sexual violence are rampant and there are many reports of trafficking and even slavery.

😭 IRIS (Integrated Refugee & Immigrant Services) was my first employer after I graduated from college. Working there was a privilege. Devastating that they and the people they serve are in such dire straits.

fucking yikes this is disgusting. the trans ban is so obviously harmful and based on animus. it's so obviously unconstitutional under the Fourteenth Amendment, at minimum. there's so obviously no emergency that could justify a stay of a preliminary injunction. and yet. I'm revolted, fuck the Court

HUGE ruling—by a conservative judge—that is almost certain to be affirmed by the 4th Circuit and is unlikely to be disturbed by SCOTUS. Justice Riggs’ final victory draws much closer.

I just met my client Dr. Badar Khan Suri for the first time in person. He said something I won't soon forget. "I was who they wanted me to be, my head down, silent. But after they did this, why should I be silent? If they wanted me to be silent, they shouldn't have arrested me." #FreeBadarKhanSuri

The National Institute of Occupational Safety & Health has been effectively dismantled by the Trump administration. This is the research agency that helps to keep workers safe in their jobs. This is a slap in the face of each of us. We deserve workplaces that do not kill us.

NIOSH is the agency that researches workplace harms/how to make workplaces safe, and makes the recommendations that OSHA then enforces. They were the ones who were responsible for making sure the air you breathe at your job isn’t going to give you cancer when you’re older or cause organ failure etc
