This by @jadomian.bsky.social &co works as a public service. If you need 77 minutes of hilarious catharsis about our present laughing at Elon Musk, RFK Jr., Kristi Noem, Tulsi Gabbard, Eric Adams and the Nazi DOGE teenagers this is your show.

The "white genocide" conspiracy theory that's bubbled on the far right for years and is now embraced by the top of the US govt not only explains special status for non-persecuted Afrikaners, it's also motivated multiple deadly terrorist attacks, and the Trump admin's immigration policy more broadly.

Es escandaloso. Pero también lógico, la verdad misma del género reality tv: ser una herramienta de disciplinamiento. Para concursantes y para espectadores.

Agonía del presente. Belleza en la extinción. Ceremonias para invocar propósitos y desafiar al miedo. Interdependencia que nos compone. Cuerpos. Madres. Tierra. Esta conversación entre ANOHNI y @naomiaklein.bsky.social es una de las cosas más profundas y sensibles que he escuchado en mucho tiempo.

Gentes de Bluesky, firmad esto que es importante: iniciativa ciudadana europea para prohibir las "terapias" de conversión de personas LGTBIQ+. NO es un change.org, puede suponer un cambio legal real. Y no lo dejéis para luego, que se acaba el sábado. eci.ec.europa.eu/043/public/#...

Here is the grad speech that NYU is now withholding the student's diploma for: "As I search my heart today in addressing you all…the only thing that is appropriate to say in this time and to a group this large is a recognition of the atrocities currently happening in Palestine."

One thing that's worth noting: This student didn't even say the word "Israel." A simple recognition of Palestinian suffering was enough for an American university to withhold this student's diploma and "pursue disciplinary actions"

We deserve a fair wage that allows us to cover our most basic needs to live in this city and continue to provide our students with the best education possible. WE NEED YOUR VOICE! Come to our next bargaining session TOMORROW WEDNESDAY 5/14 at LC: from 10-2.

At our last bargaining session, management responded to our compensation proposal with 3% raises across the board. THIS IS NOT ENOUGH! Fordham continues to fall behind other institutions in the city and even behind our peer institutions across the country.

La bancarrota ética, moral, política, discursiva y estratégica del centrismo, en dos titulares.

Who I feel sorry for is America’s homegrown racists, who have worked hard for decades only to be forced to compete with Afrikaners for their jobs.

This is a very consultant-brain type of thinking bc swing voters aren’t “centrists” by any meaningful sense of the world. Their most salient ideological characteristics are, like, a general disinterest in “the news” and a loose and absolutely incoherent set of political beliefs

Flag of short-lived Consejo Regional de Defensa de Aragón. Between 1936-37 the council brought collectives across Aragón into single body, sometimes described as only anarchist "government" in history. Red-yellow Aragón, purple Spanish Republic, red Marxist, black Anarchist 1/2

Maybe I'm wrong, but I feel like if a US exchange student in a foreign country (say, Turkey?) was imprisoned for six weeks because they wrote an op-ed in the student newspaper it would be a huge domestic story and an international incident.

I got the best teaching evals of my career for a large course last semester— along with three teaching awards— after rebuilding my intro class around in-class handwritten essays. I simply do not believe that this is unsolvable or that students don't care about actually learning to do their work.

Don't have anything new to say about AI here. One thing I will say is that higher ed has long been broken. If elites had spent more time thinking through the point of education and how well we really do it than stoking woke panic, maybe we wouldn't be staring at this abyss. nymag.com/intelligence...

It’s time to reconsolidate a counterculture and politics against this shit. Science, art, medicine, poetry, philosophy as the beautiful life, the fullness of human civilization, that they want to destroy. Humanism, not cynicism, not slop, not tech “””nerd””” culture

It’s weird to live in a time when basic principles like cruelty is wrong, cheating is empty & the idea that curiosity, generosity, originality, the satisfaction of earned accomplishments & loving intimacy are the center of a good life feel like countercultural concepts
