THIS IS BIG
For non-academics who might not understand why:
1. Sen. Warren is still a Harvard professor so this is a call coming from inside the house
2. As a tenured law prof, Warren knows it is a VERY big deal from a labor standpoint to call on Harvard to ignore tenure. The bar for this is HIGH.

Per CNN, Elizabeth Warren is calling on Harvard to cut ties with Larry Summers after Jeffrey Epstein's emails released last week by House Dems featured Summers making sexist comments + asking for Epstein’s romantic advice.

This is blatantly calculated and Dem senators need to force Schumer out of the leader position THIS WEEK.
So I guess I have to make more fucking phone calls.

Called both @wyden.senate.gov and @merkley.senate.gov about opposing this deal + also urging them to dump Schumer as leader
If you care about other people, please call congress and demand a guarantee on ACA subsidies.
Millions of people depend on the ACA to prevent mountains and mountains of suffering.

I finished the book last night and after sleeping on it, I think one reason why folks have a rough time with this book is that it's less what we expect from a Jane Austen novel and more of a proto Brontë novel in a different key and that it's lowkey a horror story
Fanny Price would’ve been justified in killing everyone (except her brother) in Mansfield Park

So many people were detained extrajudicially, were tortured, or died because of Dick Cheney. You can't get to the danger we're in now without everything he did. The weapons he helped forge are ones we need to take away from U.S. presidents forever.

Dick Cheney’s legacy is that he turned 9/11 from a national tragedy into a global disaster. He did so through a mixture of arrogance, stupidity and greed and blighted the last quarter century.

In addition to Vincent Price as Rattigan, mine is George Carlin as the Narrator in Thomas the Tank Engine
I think everybody has a “Wallace Shawn from Young Sheldon” — my first one would probably be “Vincent Price, the guy who did the voice of Ratigan in The Great Mouse Detective”
