"Don't follow illegal orders" would be more meaningful if Democrats had prosecuted literally any of the prominent war criminals of the last 30 years instead of, you know, fucking campaigning with them

There are two outspoken Zionists on Stranger Things who have suffered zero consequences for publicly stating genocidal nonsense during the past 2 years. If you can't manage to boycott, or at least pirate that show, you can go to hell

Since Louis CK is in the news again, it's worth restating that he never gave an honest accounting of his sexual misconduct—his initial "apology" and his subsequent statements have been contradicted by the testimony of his victims, and contained elisions and gaps intended to exonerate him.

Faculty unions should absolutely advocate for anti-racism and decolonization, including in Palestine.
To argue otherwise is to be a collaborator.

Look, every single “deal” reached by a university with the Trump administration is a moral stain that will be seen with deep embarrassment once we’re through this. But for Northwestern to do this now, when the administration is visibly weakened, is even more shameful and inexcusable.

I really believe the tech bros build Ai systems to give confident, if often wrong, answers because that works for them. That’s what they do every day. They don’t understand that most people *need* to be correct, that they don’t have thirteen safety nets to catch them if they make a mistake.

I just want to remind people that Louis CK masturbated in front of multiple colleagues over the course of many years many of whom because of it chose to leave the profession.
When a cancelled performer reënters the culture, we expect them to offer us a great work, channelling their newfound clarity into the finest art they’ve ever made. With his new comedy show and début novel, has Louis C.K. met the bar?

Student arrived very sick to show how sick he is to prove that he cannot do a presentation. Exposed the entire class to flu or Covid
I’m assuming the only reason he showed up that sick was because my co-instructor is extremely cop in assessment. But she will likely get a teaching award this year 🫠
