Bring back the Expos, he/him
Looking forward to the Times feature next week titled “I went to a bar in rural Pennsylvania full of voters whose single issue is they wanna fuck the green M&M and here’s why Joe Biden should be worried”

In its second reversal today, UT Austin now says students arrested in protests will be allowed back on campus *for any purpose*—two hours after saying they would only be allowed back for "academic reasons" and the same day it distributed flyers saying those arrested were fully banned!
UT Austin changes message again, says arrested students will be allowed on campus for any reason
A university spokesperson originally said students would be banned even though charges against them had been dismissed.

I assumed an intention to your question that is not actually stated because of the tense nature of this issue and really do apologize for doing so.

Genuinely not the intention as someone who appreciates your perspective. Obviously I can’t answer for OP’s but if I had posted this story and received the same question I’d say “No, clearly this is an abuse of power and me being disturbed as a Jew does not mean I’m manufacturing consent for it”

It seems pretty clear that treating the real concerns of student protests seriously also requires treating what the people who publicly represent them say as important and we all have to not play games and argue it’s *the only thing* that matters or conversely that it’s just a bad faith distraction

I’m very sad that Eric the Actor is no longer with us to hear how Biden’s middle class tax plan would support his nascent wrestling career

My 60 year old white father told me that he thought Cardi B was cool because she did an interview with Howard. I could not agree more with your prediction.

My Dad is a Nikki Haley conservative but he basically becomes a fan of any person who goes on Howard (loves Lady Gaga because she “came off well” on Stern) so I think this is honestly going to be a pretty interesting social experiment for thousands of middle aged men in that demographic

even if we avoid the worst consequences of this decision — which, as rick says, involve trump getting elected and then pardoning himself for his attempted coup (and likely trying again) — the court's actions should be seen as grounds for dramatic action to curb its power

The only thing that’s been made clear for me since 10/7 is that for a lot of non-Jews we are only useful or worth defending so long we confirm their existing biases on what a Jew should be. It is blatantly applied to Palestinian voices as well and makes clear that allyship is conditional.

To be fair waking up in the morning feeling like P Diddy now would be a way worse way to wake up
