I'm not gonna pile on JJ McCarthy but it would be hilarious if this year the Vikings took Cade McNamara in the 6th round of the draft or something

Things that will get you kicked out of academia forever:
- taking maternity leave at the wrong time
- spending too much time with your kids
- reporting harassment
- not moving every 2-3 years
- taking a partner's job/preferences into account
- mouthing off before tenure
A guy makes ONE tiny mistake (has a years-long friendship with the world's worst sex trafficker; brags about sexually harassing colleagues; is racist; says women are stupid) and his whole LIFE is blown up (does slightly fewer speaking engagements; keeps teaching at #1 university)??!?!?!?!?!
So Harvard is keeping this guy, but Claudine Gay had to step down over ginned up plagiarism accusations and bad-faith accusations of anti-Semitism.

Got it.

You are such a loser if you line up to buy this lol
Beginning Monday, a Frozen Peppermint Hot Chocolate drink will be available exclusively at Starbucks cafés inside Target stores.

The chains are hoping the drink can drum up excitement from customers this holiday season.

Ruby Bridges is 71. Emmett Till would have been 70.

The Civil Rights Act is only 61 years old. Loving is 58.

Less than a generation ago.
there are quite a few white folks who vividly recall and rather miss Jim Crow alive and voting in this country right now
I honestly don’t see how anyone can see it any other way if they are honest. Jim Crow was only ~60 years ago! Are we really pretending that the insane racism just suddenly disappeared? This is to say nothing of the hundreds of examples we all have of seeing casual racism in everyday life

You know Dems are gonna come out with some campaign like: "We should give ICE agents the day off for Christmas"

I'm seeing people wonder why ICE is going after Charlotte.

ICE has been at war with Charlotte's sheriff ever since he won in 2018.

We'd covered this at Bolts back in the day; this quote is from that sheriff:
“When the 8 African American sheriffs took over the largest counties in North Carolina, it became a threat to the good ol’ boy system,” says the sheriff of Charlotte. These new sheriffs broke ties with ICE.

But GOP lawmakers cracked down this week, overbidding the governor’s veto to adopt this law:
North Carolina GOP Is Cracking Down on the Black Sheriffs Who Stood Up to ICE
Boosted by new supermajorities, Republicans are closing in on legislation to mandate more collaboration with ICE and preempt local policies hard-won by immigrants’ rights advocates.

This is getting a lot of attention in NC. Here in Durham, even the neighborhood forum is lighting up with indignation. When you have a space where bots don’t go, you don’t see the messages of support for this action that you do on X or FB.

I'm not kidding there are people in my life who have watched 0 hours of women's basketball and know who A'ja Wilson is and how to pronounce her name. I am truly in shock that this happened
Did he just say "Ah'ja?" Dude. #NCAAWBB

It’s useful for people of my generation to be reminded that this wasn’t that long ago. Ruby Bridges isn’t just still alive—she’s only 71, not ancient!
65 years ago on Nov. 14, little Ruby Bridges was escorted into an all-white elementary school in New Orleans. Norman Rockwell, renowned for blissful depictions of Americana, did this remarkable painting for Look magazine. Printed as a double page, over-size spread, it's his masterpiece.

The cops at Kyle Field are a particular brand of weenie. Me and my friend were walking in and said the word fuck as part of a story and a cop got RIGHT up in my friends face yelling at him about cursing. My friend is 6'5" tho so he was really up in his chest, a FAILED power trip if I ever saw one.
