Thank you so much! I had never heard of it and just tried. So nice to search and not receive 10 hits of Reddit, quora, and pure trash

I just had my daughter watch Mamdanu’s victory speech with me, and then we danced to Dhoom Machale. Very overjoyed

My Post headline

Mamdani didn’t tell the whole truth about his hijab-wearing ‘aunt’ who feared for safety post-9/11

The “aunt” who Zohran Mamdani said was too afraid to wear her hijab on the subways after 9/11 was actually his dad’s cousin.

A Bard College student was kidnapped by ICE and Bard’s administration is advocating for his release and has created a website to assist the rest of the community in joining them.

That’s what academic leaders should be doing for their students right now. www.instagram.com/p/DQKSTDJkeF...

In about three years the entire university pivot to AI curricula and schools and programs is going to be so deeply embarrassing. We will all pretend it never happened and I will be standing there, looking at people with a mirror in my eyes. This is all so embarrassing.

Remember when RFK Jr. challenged Senator Wyden to a mailbag size contest?

Defend Public Health has a new campaign. You can help prove that scientists and healthcare workers do not, in fact, support RFK Jr.’s agenda by sending Senator Wyden a postcard.

Help Prove RFK Jr. is Wrong | Defend Public Health

When Senator Wyden stated he’d heard from thousands of doctors and scientists concerned by RFK Jr’s policies, Kennedy responded "I'll put my mailbag against your mailbag any day.” Let's prove Kennedy ...

Congrats!!! May. Ask when you first submitted? Still waiting on an NOA which I’m afraid will not happen by 9/30

Congrats to you!! May I ask when it was approved for funding? I’m still waiting for mine and have been told it is not guaranteed before 9/30

Shoutout to Huntrx and Saja Boys for helping get my daughter up early for middle school.

Thanks to neighbors for welcoming her belting out K-pop Demon Hunters lyrics at 7:30 as she waits for the bus

Congrats to Lisa Murkowski on voting for a bill that she herself admitted was not ready in hopes that the House would change it. Now it’ll become law. She had the power to stop it, and instead chose to become complicit. That’s her legacy.

As a brown person living in Manhattan when 9/11 happened I know racism and Islamophobia never went away but boy is it not great to log on every day and see politicians being so gleefully awful toward a guy who looks like me and my family

There are two kinds of people we’re fighting in public health — antivaxxers and minimizers. And minimizers are almost worse than antivaxxers. With antivaxxers, bad is clearly bad — they lie, twist facts, push grifts, and spread disinformation. They do what we expect them to do.

Despite his own privileged path to power, or perhaps because of it, the son of a Columbia University professor and a movie director is campaigning as a socialist intent on redistributing New York’s wealth.

Here’s How Much New York City Mayoral Candidate Zohran Mamdani Is Worth

Wow. I have never seen something like this in Bangla. “Hashi Kusshi” and “Karap na”. Nailed it.

If you were too young in 2003 here is what Bush told the American people:

1) The Iraq War won’t cost a lot of money
3) We won’t need a lot of troops
4) We’ll bring peace and freedom to Iraq
5) We’ll find WMDs
6) We’ll be welcomed as liberators
7) It will be easy
8) It won’t take long

All lies.

the mainstream media has been steadily buying into the idea that science and academia are somehow "captured" by left and liberal ideologues, rather than the more obvious explanation that measured analysis leads people away from reactionary thought

My University has told us that despite growing ug and grad majors, we are losing a TT history position (not filling line of departing prof). Today they announced they hired a new "chief artificial intelligence strategist." Guess how I feel about this.
