When the moment came, Harvard didn’t hedge or flinch—it stood up. A reminder that integrity isn’t complicated, it’s just rare.

This is such a great project..... I'm very happy to volunteer there four mornings each week...
Learning goes both ways at Cork's Welcome English Language Centre
From tea-breaks and chats to jobs, weddings and christenings — the language centre has become a social hub for the students and the tutors

I bought a Tesla because it was fast like a rocket ship. But now every time I drive it, I feel like a rolling billboard for a man dismantling our government and hurting people. So Tesla, you’re fired!
New ride coming soon.

I'm so proud that the English Language School where I volunteer has won the prestigious Aontas National Star Award for Social Inclusion in 2025. This is a huge tribute to the team of volunteer teachers and to the students who are migrants and refugees from across the world. www.welcomeenglish.ie

Massive encroachment by Bezos into The Washington Post’s opinion section - makes clear dissenting views will not be published
I still have not felt encroachment on my journalism on the news side, but if Bezos tries interfering with the news side I will be quitting immediately and letting you know

I asked Elon’s Grok 2 the question of whether and how you could destroy the country through insane trade wars and hijacking Treasury’s payment system.
And I must say, what I got back seems to be a fairly good analysis.
