if we want to talk about youth vs experience, by the time I was 33, I had already been in charge of a combined $2.1 billion set of budgets for all postsecondary education in Michigan, and then the deputy executive of the public university coordinating board in Michigan

This photo of Mittens made me laugh so I decided to use it to make a mockup book cover for his memoir.

I will be representing him and expecting quite a competitive bidding war for publishing rights.

In exceptional cases, TERF Inc., d/b/a GC, llc, will consider applications from American failed academics above the age of 40. Applications must demonstrate an early commitment to blaming the woke academy for a lack of tenure. Jordan Peterson and Joe Rogan patreon support an asset.

It’s not just unfair to me as a trans woman, it’s unfair to me as a teacher if every single student has a heckler’s veto over every lecture, discussion section, and assignment. The incentive structure you’re creating is for everyone to submit “MAGA” written in crayon and dare me not to give As.

Biases as a trans person aside, I think at some point we need to make a stand simply because Republican affirmative action becoming the norm will make it functionally impossible to teach.

Me: "we don't recruit! it's bad manners!"

Also me: tracking my annual upstream and downstream totals in TransWay

Congratulations, UOklahoma, you played yourself. And a trans grad student is the one who suffers bc of your stupidity (or willingness?). An absolute disgrace, and an utter lack of principled leadership.

A graduate teaching assistant who gave a University of Oklahoma student a failing grade on a psychology essay will no longer be teaching at the university

I don't think free speech on campus ought to mean that a young coddled bigot gets to use their ignorance to casually destroy the career of a knowledgeable trans person on a random Wednesday

this is one of the throwaways I took trying to get my new profile pic and it looks almost exactly like it, but I accidentally framed the lyric I put up as part of my Duckstream backup
