Steve Bannon, after calling for Trump to be President for life, did a Nazi salute on stage at CPAC.
Nazism has officially taken over the GOP.
The few remaining conservatives have a choice: either leave the party and obstruct it—or choose to be complicit.

when i worked at a tech support call center, women received (sometimes explicit) rape and murder threats not too infrequently from angry customers.
but we were told something could only be done if the customer knew/told us our location. otherwise, we just had to note on the account they were mad.

A Florida woman was charged Tuesday after police said she ended a call with BlueCross BlueShield with the words, “Delay, Deny, Depose. You people are next.”
She was charged with threats to conduct a mass shooting or an act of terrorism, and her bond was set at $100,000.

Texas lawmakers are scrutinizing university professors’ influence. Here's how faculty shape their universities.
Faculty senates have long played a key role in developing curriculum and protecting open inquiry. State leaders have also accused them of liberal indoctrination.

When you share your research on here, share the DOI so that it counts towards your reach statistics!
Some limitations - always wave THOSE around, marketing tells me:
Sharing research via shortlinks (like bitly) is NOT tracked on Bluesky atm. For this to happen the service has to make a change first (we're chatting with them so don't all @ them about it.) Use the DOI or direct link and you're good.
