Remember when Republicans were all about parents' rights to make medical decisions (like not getting vaccinated) for the kids without interference?

For now, the most important thing you can do is submit a public comment about the harm these rules would cause. These comments may not ultimately sway this transphobic regime, but they will be very important for future lawsuits. 👇

And I wonder what this article would have been like, had it been written by an autistic person w/intellectual disabilities. Or just an autistic person.

A narrative from the Brown shooting that hasn’t gotten enough attention…

While people were falsely claiming the shooter was Muslim, the reality was that a Muslim student was one of those shot and killed. People were quick to accuse a Muslim of being the shooter…

I have BANNED google docs links because of #5 on the list. Students legit just don’t configure their docs so I can view them let alone comment on them.
If I hear one more person refer to Gen Z or Gen Alpha as digital natives when the students do not know:

1. How to use built-in Word functions like outlining and spellchecker
2. The different types of basic files
3. Interoperability
4. The issues related to uploading

I've never apologized for being white.

I've apologized for the things done by white people to other people.

One is about identity. One is about behavior.

If you don't separate them, then you're saying the behavior is part of the identity.

And that makes your real identity one of bigotry.

This is quite literally the job of an academic. Also, LLMs don’t do this either! It regurgitates what it statistically calculates as the most likely outcome. Stochastic parrots all the way down!

Hard to express how much I love this.

Twitter is the Nazi site for Nazis. Delete it, ESPECIALLY if you're a famous person or political leader.

Abughazaleh does a great job explaining that it's also TRASH and doesn't even let you reach your audience.

Get the hell off.
This has always been a Bluesky-first campaign. But as of today, we will no longer be using Twitter. At all.

And I'm calling on other candidates to follow suit.

It's streaming on a Canadian website, but there is no telling for how long.
