The dean search at UF blown up by a group dedicated to “exposing communism in America.”

The idea that the 21st century university is a hotbed of communism is laughable on so many levels. And the idea that a dean at an R1 is a communist is even more ludicrous. Check out the salaries.

“Minimize” is doing some heavy lifting here. The administration is trying to tightly *control* and *limit* gender identities so that rights can easily be circumscribed for at least half the population and so that anyone who doesn’t conform to a binary conception of sex/gender can be punished.

In case you needed more proof that the GOP in our state does not care about the safety and health of women, they declined to appropriate a little over $200k for this. 210 strangulation exams. 210 people who are now at higher risk of dying at the hands of their domestic partners. Why?

Oh, look! Another university is being targeted by the administration! I’m shocked!

When are they going to realize that acting alone and capitulating is not going to work here? Have none of these folx heard of the “prisoner’s dilemma”?

Now that Paul, Weiss has given in to another illegal EO, I’m sure Trump will leave everyone else alone and the rule of law will be restored. 🙄

I’ll raise you one dog wedged in between the couch cushions and the back of the couch… 😂

Sandwiched between a snoozing poodle and two teens working on their homework, I’m thankful for quiet moments at home when the world outside is burning.

To fight despair, I invested in a pair of roller skates. I can also claim that they are research for the show I’m working on—XANADU. 🤣 And I just might wear them to a lecture I deliver this spring….
