Heartbreaking. The University of Nebraska will terminate its entire Earth science department.
One of the country's most successful and respected geology & climate programs: gone.
When ideologues & politicians are threatened by the very act of studying climate change, I wonder: who of us is next?

It's over.
Despite the fact that the academic council recommended against it, despite the fact that the program brought in more tuition than it cost, and despite the fact that Nebraskans need & deserve this expertise, Earth & Atmospheric Sciences will be cut.

without birthright citizenship in the united states, you don't have a democracy and you don't have rule of law.
revoking birthright citizenship gives fascists free rein to purge the country of literally anyone they don't like. it opens the door to atrocities and mass murder. i am not exaggerating.

Every time the RW & techbro losers whine about the "crisis of masculinity" I think of how they just have no clue or imaginative ability to embrace what masculinity is & can be.
Then I re-watch this expression of masculinity, "like true heroes, we'll dance."

Remember when all the Big 12 teams complained about playing nine conference games?
Yeah, me neither.

WordPerfect was the best. I miss it so much.
WordPerfect was a much better, far more intuitive system. But they failed because they didn't have Microsoft's marketing muscle.

It is an absolutely delightful irony that the richest man in the world is universally acknowledged to be a huge fucking loser who not a single living person envies in any way at all
Remember folks: if you have any small amount of artistic talent, any sex appeal, or can make your friends laugh, the richest man on earth is crying screaming throwing up because he can’t be you.

Before he was the justice that wrote Wong Kim Ark, Horace Gray was reporter for the Mass Supreme Court. (He’d later become its chief justice.)
As reporter, he wrote a scathing critique of Dred Scott - grounding his analysis in its rejection of birthright citizenship.

the birthright clause was not just written to wipe dred scott off of the books, it was written to repudiate the *idea* behind dred scott, you might say the larger *ideological project* of dred scott. and the whole of section 1 of the 14th amendment is a constitutional statement of political equality

i think to understand the meaning of the birthright citizenship clause to the framers of the 14th amendment, you have to understand significance of dred scott to the civil war republican party. dred scott wasn't just a bad ruling, it was understood as a rejection of the declaration itself.
