JD Vance is the only gender identity I don't support. If you are questioning your gender and wondering if you are actually JD Vance, I beg you to analyze how happy anyone identifying as JD Vance is with themselves and their life course, and consider whether any other gender might fit you better.

You know who benefits from Twitter no longer functioning for academics? People like Summers, who we can no longer easily organize against. I lay out a lot of the evidence against him here, but look at how low the engagement is.

In multiple emails across a couple of years, Larry Summers discussed strategy for how to sexually harass a mentee with Jeffrey Epstein, a child sexual abuser. Their emails continued until the day before Epstein was arrested in 2019. Yet Summers holds multiple titles at Harvard. Do…

bro there's a whole paragraph about his brain worm lmfao
I did not like to think about it just as later I would not like to think about the worm in his brain that other people found so funny. I loved his brain. I hated the idea of an intruder therein. Others thought he was a madman; he was not quite mad the way they thought, but I loved the private ways that he was mad. I loved that he was insatiable in all ways, as if he would swallow up the whole world just to know it better if he could. He made me laugh, but I winced when he joked about the worm. “Baby, don’t worry,” he said. “It’s not a worm.” A doctor he trusted had reviewed the scans of his brain obtained by The New York Times, he said, and concluded that the shadowy figure was likely not a parasite at all. He sighed. It was too late to interfere with what had already vaulted from the sphere of meme to the sphere of screwy legend, but at least I did not have to worry about the worm that was not a worm in his brain.

Listening now…leaving this here
Sad and Beautiful World The storied career of the 86-year-old musician began more than 70 years ago as the lead singer of her family band, The Staple Singers, of which Mavis is the last living member. She would go on to apply her singular rasp, keen ear, and strong social conscience to a body of work that stands as a living heritage of American music-singing on Civil Rights Movement anthems, collaborating with Bob Dylan, Prince, and Willie Nelson, and being inducted into both the Rock & Roll and Gospel Music Hall of Fame. Staples briefly considered retiring in 2023; instead, she recorded her quietly stunning 14th solo album. On Sad and Beautiful World, the icon interprets a few songs from contemporaries like Leonard Cohen and Curtis Mayfield, but less expected are her takes on newer and more obscure numbers-Kevin Morby's 2016 protest song "Beautiful Strangers," or the early Sparklehorse album cut from which Staples draws the title. She's joined on the closer, a sweet take on Eddie Hinton's "Everybody Needs Love," by an all-star cast of backup singers: Bonnie Raitt, Drive-By Truckers' Patterson Hood, and Waxahatchee's Katie Crutchfield, plus guitar and drums by MJ Lenderman. And on "Human Mind," the album's sole original—written for Staples by Hozier and Allison Russell-she holds out a little hope amid the darkness: "Even in these days I find/This far down the line/l find good in us sometimes."

Small reminder, RFK Jr. brought up the worm-in-brain point because he was trying to pay as little as possible to his wife during their divorce.

Mary Richardson Kennedy, mother of their four children, completed suicide during their protracted legal fight.

“So bad it’s funny” reactions to this help just functionally normalize RFK Jr by helping us forget that MAHA is a stupid eugenics mentality and he and his enablers already have blood on their hands.

It needs to be emphasized that this paragraph is about Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
Like all men but more so, he was a hunter. In a literal sense, he used not a bullet but a bird. It was not about a chase but about a puzzle of logic and skill that amounted to a test of his self-mastery. He was the mouse and the architect of his maze. The giver of his own pleasure and torment. He desired. He desired desiring. He desired being desired. He desired desire itself. I understood this just as I came to understand the range of his kinks and complexes and how they fit within what I thought I understood of his soul.

and when I say “hey this thing happened, it’s unusual but not as unusual as you’d think, it’s just nobody talks about it” and you respond “you should be doing XYZ about it”

you are the problem! you are making it *my fault*, when it isn’t. and that’s why people don’t talk about it.

I'm not saying you can easily find Larry Summers email by googling his name and workplace and I am 100% NOT suggesting you bother him. PLEASE DO NOT DO THIS! It might distract him from covering up underaged sex crimes or sexpesting. Behave. This is a warning! Respect the guy.

I went to help a nurse with a patient tonight and this is what ensued

Visitor: I told him (the patient) that he should ask for a sponge bath tomorrow from one of the cute nurses

Me: 😐

Male nurse: That's the fastest way to get a bath from one of the scruffiest looking nurses on the unit

Me: 😊

FWIW my undergrad Egyptology prof tried to get me to leave the field, gaslit me all the time... turns out he was fucking another undergraduate and didn't get suspended for it till years later... he hated me because I knew about the affair. He still works there. He ruined countless careers of women.
