Few things bug me more than higher ed leaders saying that we lost our mission and lost the trust of the public, when we have actually been the target of a decades-long smear campaign by the right wing that worked. The moment we’re losing our mission is right now, in capitulation.

I think it's weird to call any cuts to welfare for any reason good intentioned. It's simply an evil thing to do.

This is one of those things where the problem is effectively that the best policy, making sure that all homes are equipped with solar as a part of minimum build standards by default, will never happen because it will decimate the profits of both landlords and the power industry.
"In our survey, renters overwhelmingly cited their tenancy as the main reason for not owning rooftop solar. Only 9% of rental homes reported access to solar, compared to 48% of dwellings owned outright.”

Australian wholesale electricity prices are falling. So when will power bills stop rising?
The cost of generating power is definitely getting cheaper, but the savings may take time to flow through

halloween is originally a pagan holiday when the druids would find an old pair of fishnets in the cupboard and wear them with their normal clothes, calling it a 'sexy druid' costume, pretend not to be home when a group of 8-year-olds rang the bell, drink a bottle of white wine and go to bed at 10

Acting like people are crazy for seeing a N*zi dog whistle or racism in Taylor’s lyrics is not okay. You can politely disagree and move on without invalidating the legit criticisms marginalized communities and POC have

The deep irony of Swift suing Olivia Rodrigo then turning around and stealing riffs from others w no formal credit other than to George Michael is so classic and I’m sure the lawsuits from the Jacksons and the Pixies, etc will be forthcoming
