Really important to stress that the Crown Jewels of the US higher education system were never the Ivies or elite SLACs (other countries have equivalents of these) but the well-funded, large, cheap, and excellently staffed public state university systems bringing high quality education to the masses.

Political violence is bad. It usually begets more political violence.
Celebrating political violence is bad. It usually encourages more political violence, against various targets.
Campus shootings are bad. They make everyone on campus less safe.
It's bad that what I wrote here is controversial.

1. I live in a Blue state, which means that the infrastructure protecting the Public Good is functional and maintained. If a storm threatens a tornado, sirens go off telling us to head to safety. These sirens are tested monthly. When flash floods are warned we get loud alerts on our phones.

Here is the thing… about being ironic (or “funny” in this case).
When you need to explain the irony, or add a disclaimer so people don’t get the “wrong idea…

SAME. I love this show so much.
we have a trailer for What If A Man Was Large, Season 3
in this it appears we will explore the question of "what if a large man encountered another, even larger man"
I hope this show runs for decades
