I used to care about a lot of things. Now just mostly #Bengals, #Buckeyes, #Reds, and #UDFlyers. Might do research today.

Love to see a university leaning hard on the expertise of their own faculty in such a pivotal moment. More of this please. #AcademicSky 🧪

Before the election, I warned that there is no safe haven under authoritarianism. If they can ship Kilmar Abrego Garcia to a foreign prison—accused of no crime, with no trial—they can do it to anyone. Americans of conscience must stand against this now.

3 things autistic kids will actually never do: 1. Pick up a roadkill bear from the side of the road and put it in their van to eat 2. Realize they could get in trouble for eating the bear 3. Leave it in Central Park to frame a cyclist for its murder

I hope other university alliances start pooling resources and engaging in the kinds of collective action Rutgers is proposing here for the Big Ten. senate.rutgers.edu/report/resol...

“If a pact is formed, the universities shall “commit meaningful funding to a shared or distributed defense fund”. The fund will be in turn used to provide “immediate and strategic support to any member institution under direct political or legal infringement.” #defendhighered

This is how you do it. The "Mutual Academic Defense Compact". The moral imperative may be to fight... but the strategic imperative is to not fight alone: www.gazettenet.com/UMass-Amhers...

It's never about the science. It's always about having a legal basis for your fear and hatred of other people.

As an autistic individual, autism is not an illness. If I cough on you, you’re not gonna suddenly love Baseball.

RALLYING REDS

I really do believe that one of the most ominously anti-feminist intellectual developments over the past decade is the emergence of the fiction that motherhood, caregiving, and housekeeping are somehow separate and insulated from the exploitations of capitalism—rather than central to it.

Working on this with Steve was among the most rewarding things I have ever done.

If the judge is looking for an attorney to prosecute the Trump administration for contempt of court... 🙋‍♂️

It isn’t “efficient” to skip out on paying a contract, so it isn’t “efficient” to gut Social Security. This isn’t a partisan issue—it’s an ironclad promise we must keep.

President Trump has no authority to unilaterally impose his disastrous tariff agenda. These reckless tariffs have created economic chaos, skyrocketing everyday costs and inflicting billions in damages on the state, families, and businesses. We will be taking this to court.

Say hello to our eight new meerkat kits! Moms Keeya and Naledi recently welcomed litters of four each, and they’re adorable. 😍 Keeya’s curious little explorers are starting to pop out in the Kids’ Zone meerkat habitat, while Naledi’s crew is still snuggled up behind the scenes.

Harvard's lawyers are ready to wipe the floor with this one

Alright Bengals fans, I’m going to release a BIG SIX this week! The six guys I’d target with the 17th pick if I was the Cincinnati Bengals. These are players that could realistically be there at 17. Care to make any guesses on the six players that made the cut? 👀

This dog got a little impatient waiting for his pup cup. Decided to make sure everything was going alright in there. 14/10

Trump tries to intimidate; the AP resists. Trump tries to eliminate; the AP resists. Trump defies the courts; the AP resists. apnews.com/article/ap-t...

Trump’s sputtering response to Harvard standing up to him is yet another reason why institutions should refuse to bend the knee. He’s a paper tiger, unable to argue his own case.

We’re launching a series of virtual MLA Strategy Sessions offering community for members grappling with the current higher education environment. Join us on 22 April to hear from members who have devised strategies to respond to the challenges facing their institutions.

The Bengals brought back a familiar face on Wednesday...

Steve Kerr wore a Harvard basketball shirt after the Warriors’ win tonight: “Yes, this is me supporting Harvard. Way to go. Way to stand up to the bully.”

Probably a note that only interests me...but. #Reds have scored 27% of their runs in the 3rd inning (19 of 70). Runs/batting average by inning 1st (8) .172 2nd (6) .197 3rd (19) .286 4th (3) .175 5th (8) .217 6th (11) .239 7th (6) .188 8th (7) .155 9th (2) .195

Costco employs about 10 times more people than the entire coal mining industry. A single Costco store employs about as many people as 10 average-sized coal mines.

Franklin, Ohio's Luke Kennard! I forgot he existed.

And y’all need to be right behind him: @markwarner.bsky.social @mcclellan.house.gov @kaine.senate.gov

Four wins in a row for the Reds? I'll take it.

39000 days ago (July 6, 1918), Pete Schneider of the Reds takes a one-hit shutout into the ninth against the Phillies. And then to start the 9th: Walk. Walk. Walk. Walk. Walk. Walk. Schneider mercifully gets the hook there and Cincinnati hangs on to win 10-9. Schneider finishes with 13 walks.

Constituents to Chuck Grassley: "Are you bringing back that guy from El Salvador?" Senior Citizen: “If I get an order to pay a ticket to pay $1200 and I just say ‘no’, does that stand up? Because he just got an order from the Supreme Court and he just said ‘screw it’” “I’M PISSED!”

Trump has taxpayers paying for the torture chamber in El Salvador. In defiance of the Supreme Court, he holds a press conference with the President of El Salvador saying they are unable to bring the unjustly trafficked man back.

Faculty senates at Rutgers University, the University of Nebraska at Lincoln, the University of Indiana at Bloomington, and the University of Massachusetts at Amherst have passed resolutions calling for the creation of a mutual-defense compact. chroni.cl/4cBFrnu

Alums of any rich universities should take whatever money you were going to donate to them, and instead donate it to your local community college. Seriously.
