Bombing civilians isn't popular, watching them die on tiktok isn't popular. Watching our friends become homeless so landlords can get richer isn't popular. Healthcare insurance CEOs aren't popular. Fascists aren't popular. Centrism isn't popular. It's not about electability. It's about power.

Watching commentators insist that OU’s defense can’t keep doing this and the NEXT offense will have “more energy” and THEN we will be in trouble is starting to remind me of a season that ended 13-0 with a final score line of 13-2.

That bitch Bezos is in those records for sure
The Washington Post editorial board decided the Epstein files have “no public interest” before even seeing them. That’s a stunning position for any newsroom to take. Praising Clay Higgins as the lone ‘no’ vote, too? No wonder no one trusts legacy media. Absolutely disgusting.

NEW: Federal prison workers are jumping ship & heading to ICE for better pay + bonuses. Already BOP lost >1400 people this year, reversing all of 2024’s staffing gains. It’s an unintended consequence of Trump’s push for mass deportations

Man won a narrow plurality of the vote, and immediately and very predictably started plummeting, and so many people and institutions who had no real need to go that far, even on the most cynical and cowardly of self-serving rationales, decided to chain themselves to the deck of a sinking ship.

Worked like a dog today as part of this handsome mobile lab team. Felt great. We gave HIV tests to 86 sex workers, got 3 poz, 6 inconclusive & 77 neg results. Got the 3 into care & about 60 of the 77 neg onto PrEP! Also gave PEP, antibiotics, condoms & lube to 200+ sex workers. A successful day.

Not new. This has been the case in education since at least his first term and Dems, as with every other issue, took his assault as the new baseline during Biden’s 4 years and essentially did nothing so he could continue the assault now.
it just seems plainly clear to me that if you serve the country in any capacity, civil or military, and you are not a conservative white man, the Trump administration wants to make the workplace as hostile an environment as possible so you remove yourself

I don’t know about now, but something like this is why I left philosophy grad school. Prof who was clearly pursuing the young female students he found attractive and abusive to everyone else and the dept was like “that’s reasonable”. Noped right out of there.
If women are underrepresented in STEM, it's at least partly because men like this offer mentoring, then embarrass themselves by assuming their mentees must be into them, then decide the best solution is to cut ties, which sends the signal to other faculty that the mentee must not be good enough.
The emails have Summers reporting to Epstein about his attempts to date a Harvard economics student & to hit on her during a seminar she was giving.
