Major breaking trans news: The ACLU has launched a lawsuit on behalf of 7 transgender people affected by Trump’s passport ban.

Incredible filing. The Trump admin is now swarmed with lawsuits over discriminatory and illegal executive orders.

Tr**p's proposal to displace the entire Gaza population isn't shocking. He's a billionaire landlord and developer. But tons of Americans don't see a problem with homes or land as financial assets bc they think it could be them one day. The entrepreneurial fantasy is also one of escaping capitalism.

Stop fucking saying he blamed “DEI,” which is some abstract, non-tangible idea. He is blaming people of color having jobs he thinks they aren’t qualified for. He’s blaming race. He’s being racist every time he says it. Journalists need to get fucking backbones, my word.

For LA Review of Books, I reviewed Constance Debré's magnetic novel Playboy — at turns petulant, cutting, sexy, and a necessary armature for softness. Out today from Semiotext(e). With thanks to my friends and editors for making it possible

All I can think about is how individual strategizing to avoid consequence just forms a collective hegemonic picture — e.g. a president postures in support of isr@el to retain funding, effectively buttressing genocide. And what a fucking disgrace it is for tenured faculty to be doing nothing

“Recovery is extremely rare in the first 2 years, posing a major challenge to healthcare systems.”

Maybe assuming it’s okay for *absolutely everyone* to be infected w/ a new disease that (unpredictably) in a small percent of cases results in as-yet incurable long-term disability wasn’t a great plan

I wrote this piece in The Nation about the cuts at WVU and how small states will crush their R1 unis to cash grab for big tech. WVU is the only R1 in WV and these cuts will shred higher ed in the state. Please read and share.
