Solidarity with the faculty at The New School, one of the most important institutions for humanistic research in the US over the past 75 years.
The New School is now a place where students cannot major in History, Anthropology, Sociology, Global Policy & International Affairs, Global Studies, Urban Studies, or Environmental Studies. And more pauses, closures, and mergers coming down the pike this week. The future is uncertain.

Mamoru Oshii’s rendering of Ghost In The Shell is 30 today. This is a film that has lived inside me, and its themes are something I have visited, and revisited, through various periods of my work. I had the pleasure to interview the film’s composer Kenji Kawai.

"Straczynski expects us to be excited at the very mention of Benedict Arnold or the Continental Congress, which suggests the audience for 1776 is his fellow Chernow-reading Boomers or maybe Hamilton-obsessed millennials whose tastes intersect with an MCU-level understanding of Marvel Comics."
History fit for a presidential executive order in Marvel’s 1776 #1
A mysterious force dares to tamper with the threads of history. Captain America and a squad of Marvel heroes leap into action to safeguard the founding of the United States of America. The fate of the nation hangs in the balance at the dawn of the Revolution, as these heroes must navigate the treacherous waters of the past to ensure a future that remains untarnished.

In 1999, a woman named Jessica Gonzales sought and obtained an order of protection against her physically abusive husband ("AH"), who had repeatedly threatened to kill her and their three children. The order included language specifically limiting when and where AH was allowed to see the children.

I saw @schumer.senate.gov give the same tired speech again and again, such an encapsulation of the problem with career politicians. What a disappointment. We must primary him. No more votes for weak opposition. We need vision and a party that cares about its base, not its funders.

There's a book by @annieabrams.bsky.social about how this garbage happened and what we can do. Especially teachers.
Many districts in my area are going AP seminar (for all) in place of English 10 and not one book will be read. I teach elective AP seminar and there is no time for books. Some I have talked to mentioned maybe one short novella. It’s depressing. I teach 5-7 books with my 10th graders.

We can’t feel entitled to forgiveness or the very concept of forgiveness becomes worthless. We all know Christians who act this way, as preemptive justification for acting wrongly. True repentance means accepting those who can’t forgive, taking responsibility for the effects of our actions.
Part of accepting that accountability is acknowledging that some people might not forgive you, and you can’t get mad or force them. You have to actually demonstrate that you’ve changed, and part of that demonstration is letting them hold that hurt until they’re ready to let it go.

This is the right way to deal with having said hurtful things or expressed destructive beliefs in the past. Acknowledge it was wrong, acknowledge you hurt people, and own it.
We’ve all had Bad Takes before, and if we’ve changed we’ll admit they were bad and try to repair the hurt we’ve caused.
