this is why i am laser-focused on paying rent for people right now.
the second a family is evicted, the costs of everything explode. lives are disrupted, new schools have to be found, people are in physical danger, and then they are so much harder to rehouse with an eviction on their record.

so many families are in awful positions because ICE’s bullshit has collapsed the already fragile social safety net.

Oh yeah. The careerism is certainly a part of this. I go back and forth on if it is an independent variable or an intermediary one. Probably depends on the context.
But I can guarantee you that almost 100% of your “outside” leaders are using this job to run for office.

thread. related, my impression is a lot of higher ed administrators are significantly oriented toward making a mark on an institution in the short term so they have a claimable on their CV to get their next admin job elsewhere. that incentivizes vandalizing institutions, whether by AI or otherwise
