“The memory of the Holocaust has, perversely, been enlisted to justify both the eradication of Gaza and the extraordinary silence with which that violence has been met.”

I am excited to see this this tonight at the Kennedy Center. I love this choreographer of modern ballet, Helen Pickett. But I'm deeply ambivalent about supporting this institution now that our Tyrant has taken over. Should I cancel my season subscription? Thoughts?? youtu.be/_8UwbLG4PXU?...

Antonio Gramsci. This hits the nail directly on the head. I believe this is exactly what is happening.

How fun! I just got these photos from my dear friends, Don and Laura. These were taken a week after my Ph.D. graduation, in 2001. With David Stoll and Laura, and me stylin' my doctoral gown with Laura in the second (and can I just say that I think Stanford has the most beautiful doctoral gowns!).

Tulsi Gabbard makes the hair on the back of my neck stand up. I don't know what, but there is something bad wrong with her (Okie expression). How is that for informed discourse?? Anybody else feel that way?

Blinken, Secreatary of State, and Powers, head of USAID, have acknowledged that members of the Rapid Support Forces and allied militias have committed genocide in Sudan. SO BRAVE OF THEM against a government with ZERO power. Where do you stand with Israel's Palestinians genocide? Crickets. PUSSEYS.

A pretty wonderful snippet of modern dance from the Danza Contemporánea de Cuba. youtu.be/h7z4LM7f41I?...
