Columbia bylaws state that the president can only send police on campus to arrest protestors after consulting with the university senate. Once again, the president has neglected to follow these rules, which have been in place since 1968.

Almost every line of this story would have been simply unbelievable a few months ago:

—Pioneering cancer researcher;
—*Arrested* at airport in Boston;
—Now indefinite ICE detention in Louisiana;
—"Crime": not declaring some frog-embryo samples for research.

Read it.

While there is a lot to say about this image, the thing that stands out to me the most - what IMO makes genAI a specifically right wing phenomenon - is the craving for approval. It is not enough to be able to generate robot lingerie warrior lady. They NEED to also be praised for doing it.

I'm not sure which video to post--the fifteen paramedics in their last moments as one of them prays amid gunfire, the journalist being burned alive, the man holding a headless toddler, the people blown into the air, or the young man quietly rocking the shrouded body of a child.

It's a genocide.

This is what a "ceasefire" is for Israel. The only real, lasting ceasefire is the total dismantling of an apartheid, genocidal state whose existence has always and will always rely on the wholesale slaughter and dehumanization of Palestinians

I think a lot about how Crazy Rich Asians made a ton of money, huge hit, beloved movie. Sequel, guaranteed hit. And then the Asian woman cowriting the script asked to be paid the same amount as the white man they paired her with, and the studio completely abandoned the sequel rather than do that

DHS said she was a terrorist sympathizer and “involved in activities supporting Hamas, a terrorist organization." Revoked visa, but offered no evidence.

Social media was pro-Gaza, but she said she did not attend any protest. Offered no due process.
