The only reason selective colleges and universities are anywhere *close* to parity is because of affirmative action for young men, defended not as a matter of remedial justice but as a matter of maintaining a particular campus atmosphere. Abolish that, you get 60-40 right away, 65-35 soon.

I'm going to sound like a broken record by the way I keep mentioning how 95% of Somalis in the Twin Cities metro area are US citizens, but very few mainstream outlets are pointing this out.
This should be very basic stuff for any news organization.

You made your choice, now we get to make ours.
And for me, I made a solemn promise to myself, in 2022 when you still thought the progressive consensus was unassailable, not to go quietly, not to make it easy on anyone.
I've been steeled against this moment for years.

You have the choice to sacrifice trans people. Perhaps it will save you.
But you don't get to ask trans people to accept the role as sacrifice. You cannot expect understanding, acceptance, forgiveness, or respect.

The truth is that there are many good people in good institutions regretfully making the choice to sacrifice trans people because they fear for their own survival and their institution's survival...
...and it is incumbent on us to show them that their choice is not without consequence.

If we're not at war, Pete Hegseth is a murderer. If we are at war, Pete Hegseth is still a murderer. He's a murderer. And you don't need to go to The Hague to hold him accountable because there are perfectly good, American laws AGAINST MURDER.

This time last year, I was on the South Lawn of the White House helping to lay out the AIDS Memorial Quilt.
This year the White House did nothing and the State Department instructed empoyees and grant recipients to “refrain from publicly promoting World Aids Day through any communication channels”

This morning I had the honor of helping lay out some panels of the #AIDS Memorial Quilt on the South Lawn of the White House. Seeing all these individual lives that were lost and knowing they are just a miniscule part of that great tapestry of loss is haunting.

Also, to be clear, when a trans instructor at OU is being punished and targeted for quite fairly grading a terrible essay, it’s bizarre to see academics online debating the rubrics.
