At the vet today, a nice old gentleman in the waiting room was petting my dog Moose and asked, in all sincerity, if Moose is catholic.

I missed ONE DAY due to a stomach bug with 102 fever and now I am somehow THREE DAYS behind on emails. What is this academic math.

The people of Minnesota have executed one of the most impressive civil resistance campaigns I can remember:

- Organized a city wide general strike
- Maintained nonviolent discipline amidst violence
- Mobilized 10,000s in subzero temps to protest and watch ICE
- Flipped public opinion against ICE

WHOA! Excited that Mamdani is paying attention to our recent study about judicial background!!! #LawSky gothamist.com/news/as-mamd...
As Mamdani begins appointing judges, study finds former cops, prosecutors set higher bail
The study lands as Mayor Mamdani prepares to fill the bench.

Some early coverage of the #IceOutofSanDiego protest this morning. Looking for more when it comes out!

Ice protest planned for Thursday outside downtown San Diego federal building
The protest, which is scheduled for 11 a.m., comes one day after the fatal shooting of a 37-year-old woman by an ICE officer in an immigration-related operation in Minneapolis.

"There's no such thing as an academic emergency," I repeat to myself as I send yet another email apologizing for a delay and then wipe coffee off of my students' work.

Spilled coffee all over my students quizzes...is this semester over yet?

ICE spotted less than a mile away. All of campus is on edge. I hate this timeline we’re in.

Maisy was brought in as a stray, severely underweight with skin infections. She was lactating when the Humane Society found her, but they were unable to locate her puppies. This poor girl has been through hell, but she is still so incredibly sweet and loving. Looking forward to letting her heal.
