A colleague at Stanford’s business school used The Stanford Daily to argue—poorly—against DEI. The piece was riddled with historical errors and left one searching for fact, so I broke my public writing hiatus to respond.
I hope you’ll read and share the piece.

On the anniversary of the sinking of the Titanic, we thought we'd answer a question that's often asked,
"If they raised the Mary Rose, why not raise the Titanic?"

fact: when pidgin dialects involve english, -glish becomes the suffix, eg: chinglish, konglish, hinglish
fact: slash pair name order puts the top first and the bottom second, eg: deancas vs casdean
conclusion: english is an uke language and that’s why we have an omegaverse, not an alphaverse

the progression of AIDS treatment in my lifetime, from how terrifying it was as a child in the 80s to stories like this 40-odd years later, is genuinely one of the human race’s most awe-inspiring scientific achievements. it was a nonnegotiable death sentence for SO LONG
After nearly three decades, a Minnesota summer camp for kids with HIV/AIDS is closing and up for sale... because retroviral drugs are so effective that there aren't enough campers.
Science works, y'all.

Nico's reaction to Lewis overtaking George: he was awestruck!! 😆
"That was insane! The way he lined him up, it was perfection through that whole section around the back, overtaking around the outside. Amazing!
The drive of a 7-time world champion. Respect!"

Listen to the pause at the end, after ”this is the worst part of it because…” Toto stops himself from saying why serveral times and then just goes back to ”idiotic”.
It’s bc you actually tried this time isn’t it? But it just doesn’t work like that when you’ve been deprioritizing Lewis for months

Toto: “I just need to apologise to Lewis. Also, to everyone on the team who worked so hard to making it a great end for him. He was the quicker guy with that kind of setup that we chose on the car, also to experiment for next year, and we totally let him down. 1/2
