I don’t care if corporate DEI programs are disingenuous if they work. Some things don’t. The way to address that is to stop doing those things, not to stop all other things, nor to stop collecting and publishing the statistics that demonstrated they didn’t work. That’s just good ole HR gaslighting.

The Trump administration has figured out a way to ensure that even acknowledging antisemitism instantly gets conscripted into right-wing cultural politics, thereby generating the conditions for further antisemitism. Breaking this cycle requires the left to take antisemitism seriously as a problem.

Hello! I would be happy to help. You can email me lollardfish at gmail with a draft of a piece and a pitch and I will help you refine it to improve your chances of being published. I mean this. I've helped a few dozen people these last six months.

The Trump administration will be the 3rd. It's not just budgets but research, institutions, expertise, and training the next generation.

Are there any alternatives to the Prodigy math ed game that don’t use school districts as a way to market a video game with scammy in-game transactions to 8 year olds?

The most parsimonious explanation for these freaks is either: (1) they are far-right entryists spiking Dem elections or (2) idiots. Either way they are filth. No principles, no pragmatism, they will drag the Democratic Party down with them

The entire trans community is held responsible for every 19 year old who ever yelled at someone online about pronouns because we're not given the dignity of being separate individuals the way members of the majority are. This is just how prejudice works.

Cis people have no idea just how stupid gender is about to get

since Politico has started yet another round of "here's how Dems should compromise on trans issues", I'll re-up my November essay about why this is not only immoral & unempirical, but BAD POLITICS: on Substack: juliaserano.substack.com/p/should-dem... & Medium: juliaserano.medium.com/should-democ...
