Think we need to make room for “these guys are perverted jerks who just say a bunch of vile stuff” to explain *some* of these emails. Not all, of course, but this one feels like just a gross joke to me.

Someone has to write the prompts for these right? Does he do it himself? Does he ask someone on staff “make a video of me in a crown shitting on all the protestors” and then that person tries prompts until they get one he likes? Does this count as executive time

The stipulation that they could confiscate private donations if the terms are violated is insane. If I’m a big individual donor or potential trustee and I see the uni sign this compact, I do not renew my donation or take the trustee position.

So exhausting seeing everything accepted in the right wing frame. The answer is no in this instance, of course, but starting from the premise that immigrants are slowing down the healthcare system and/or receiving free healthcare is the deceptive right wing frame.

In the same event the sec of war declares we are getting rid of rules of engagement to impose maximum violence on enemies, then the president says there is a war within American cities. Not sure how much clearer they could make it.

Chatted with Ann Dowd after a play she did. She cupped her hand over mine when I complimented her work and asked me questions about myself when she didn’t have to.

I use the word because I might be referring to people who have a home they’d rather be at. A lot of youth, for instance, get kicked out of what they consider a home, and there is potentially a path back. I don’t think anyone *has* to use it; for me it’s just an attempt at sensitivity.

your concern for vulnerable people and I’ll be more wary of this particular word being used to further disadvantage people.

rather be at because of their identities, orientation, etc. and others have a *home* somewhere but lost access because of addictions, mental illness, etc. Some people use this word because they don’t want to assume that someone “on the streets” doesn’t have somewhere they consider home. I respect/

If there are policy makers using the word to extend resources to people who don’t need them, I was unaware of that and wouldn’t agree with it. It hasn’t felt productive but my point is about sensitivity. Many people “on the streets” have been kicked out of *homes* they’d/

Okay - just for folks following along at home - people “truly out on the streets” often have a home they cannot access at the moment. So sometimes we choose not to say homeless.

I concede that the majority of people in our country will understand homeless over unhoused. I don’t think they’re voting on that distinction. I was trying to provide some perspective on why some people choose to use the word unhoused instead of homeless.

There are people who have a home and are unable to live in it. You don’t *have* to use these words but maybe take a moment and think why some people do.

Unhoused is useful in describing someone who has a home but for various reasons is not living there.

Race Before Race at Ithaca with Jason Freitag (who you may have seen with his sister on Chopped!). Wonderful exploration of first hand sources showing modern constructions of race are pretty new and the many ways societies dealt with otherness through the ages.
