types of people in my line of work who don’t inspire confidence and therefore i do not need to hear more from right now: - stenographers - facilitators - deflectors - pollyannas - stoics - people who keep saying ‘the worst thing to do right now is panic’

Missed this when you first posted - thank goodness for re-posts. A) belated birthday wishes 🎉 B) holy cow, that trailer. Thrilled to see how the film has developed. Can’t wait to see the full length version! Congrats. (And your voice is beautiful, T.)

The music in this trailer is haunting. It reflects the America I see on the faces of the unseen when I leave my home. They, like me, need someone to watch over me.

Yesterday it was university of Pittsburgh - today it’s Penn. I fear this will soon be a grimly long thread of more gratuitous Trump/Musk inflicted disabling of America for the long term www.thedp.com/article/2025...

And Warren Buffet is holding record amounts of cash. Because he knows how overpriced everything is. Lemme lay this out for you: By almost every historical measure, the market has been *way* overheated. An over-inflated balloon waiting for an exogenous shock to bring it back to historical norms.

“It is not too late to salvage the agency and its mission. The agency’s partner organizations are hanging on and its overseas missions seem to have remained mostly intact, for now. The laws establishing U.S.A.I.D. in federal statute and its budget appropriation remain in force and unaltered.”

DEI initiatives are still legal. Universities need to stand their ground. A Friday gift to your university's General Counsel Office - courtesy of an all star lineup of civil rights lawyers and scholars. You're going to want to read this.

just to let you know how things are going. ohio faculty are in triage mode. dei required courses are on the chopping block bc of sb1. early AM emails going out. administrators have zero answers. yet we’re supposed to carry on as usual. no sense of urgency. no one knows what’s going to happen.

I've said for years that anti-Blackness, racism and white supremacy should be considered as misinformation / disinformation. To study the history of race and journalism is to see that White supremacy was an effective disinformation campaign. And through that, we got Jim Crow, a fascist system.
