I don’t know, I still randomly trip out over the fact that the President told states to specifically gerrymander for him. And they did.

This is just my opinion, but I don't think departments need to change their strategy for reading or grading student work.
Departments need a strategy for responding to harassment and attacks.

"A growing body of research suggests that minimum wages distort economies in ways that do not immediately appear in jobs numbers."
Maybe The Economist should focus on how tech companies with inflated valuations distort economies instead of targeting low income folks.

This is a deeply sexist take, given that ~2/3 of minimum wage workers in the US are women.

Apparently I'm supposed to educate people on why generative AI is bad.
It's unethical theft
It involves environmental racism
It involves wage theft and colonial exploitation of parts of the world.
Hope that helps.

And I find it maddening that we continue to do this for racists that are cheerfully enabling a fascist regime because they are women. It's as obnoxious as "Free Melania" and "Support Megyn Kelly" and "We have space for MTG". They have made the choice to cozy up to white supremacy and deserve hell

Horrifying
someone went up to sarah mcbride in front of the u.s. congress, hurled her deadname at her loudly and called her a pedophile repeatedly, posted video of the exchange to x, and it is now going wildly viral
i will not share the video
but if you’re not speaking up about this, you’re hurting yourself

Update: the woman on the Tumwater (WA) school board who voted to protect trans kids is now ahead by *25 points*.
I'd totally missed this:
In Tumwater, WA, a HS student complained about a trans basketball player. Then, the local school board passed a resolution to ban trans girls from girl sports.
Now, the mother of that student is running against the sole school board member to vote against the resolution.

If at least 26 billionaires can waste at least $27 million trying to defeat Zohran Mamdani, then those same billionaires can afford to pay an extra 2% on their income over $1 million to make New York a better, thriving city for everyone — including themselves.

This!! Ask the people you are in solidarity with to tell you what they want and need! In every job, not just politics
just want to remind everyone again that zohran is the one cis candidate i am aware of that had his platform on trans rights written by trans people. i think that matters
Zohran at the rally for trans youth on february 8 ❣️ he was polling single digits.

As many have pointed out, Mamdani didn't stand apart from our trans brothers and sisters. He didn't play the "Gee, gosh, it sure is complicated," milquetoast moderate card. And he crushed.
The way forward is together, not over the bodies of our own.

Mamdani going so hard for trans right and winning is some juicy proof that every dem that abandoned us didn’t do it for politically advantageous reasons. They did it because they’re transphobes and they will lose for it

I know it’s too much to expect them to know their history, but if the American Revolution had a motto, it definitely would not have been “immigrants go home.”
It would have been “get your fucking soldiers out of our cities.”
