I read a lot. I travel for fun. I used to travel for work. I love live theater and live music. Trying to foster the good things that will provide a better world for my family and my friends.
It's maddening.

I want to make a family tree for Tommy Orange's characters. I need that visual, to show the connections between the people in There There and Wandering Stars.

LOL! He might know of additional crimes, but that's because he was there. He's not talking about his own culpability, just the Democrats'. Funny, but he was a Dem back then, too.
He's still hiding lots of ugly stuff.

"Fitzgerald said the backlash underscored what he described as a broader climate of intolerance toward conservative speakers. “I’m mad at society,” he said. “Either we’re a free society or we’re not. This cancel culture is crazy.”
We are free to protest people who act in unacceptable ways. Freedom!

When he says it´s a nasty question or that some reporter is a nasty person, that should be a sign for other reporters to repeat the same question.
He then will be forced to answer or to slink away in shame.
Repeat this every time he tries to deflect.

Things that will get you kicked out of academia forever:
- taking maternity leave at the wrong time
- spending too much time with your kids
- reporting harassment
- not moving every 2-3 years
- taking a partner's job/preferences into account
- mouthing off before tenure
A guy makes ONE tiny mistake (has a years-long friendship with the world's worst sex trafficker; brags about sexually harassing colleagues; is racist; says women are stupid) and his whole LIFE is blown up (does slightly fewer speaking engagements; keeps teaching at #1 university)??!?!?!?!?!
