The thing you need to understand about the Right is that they are absolutely fine just plain burning down higher education if taking it over ideologically doesn’t work. They’re perfectly happy reducing it to ashes.
From the Oklahoma U student paper: the school is now saying it will automatically suspend faculty (with pay) in response to student complaints

One thing Americans have to break themselves out of is assuming certain policies are impossible, because all this is a policy choice and a sizable chunk of the world isn’t worried about their schools be shot up.

📽️ WATCH: After a bird flu outbreak tore through Midwestern barns, which led to 18 million hens being killed and a spike in egg prices, the Department of Agriculture didn’t investigate whether the virus was airborne.
But ProPublica did.

Each semester I go in my classroom and I try to figure out what we would use to block the doors, if it would be safe to crawl out the windows, where we could hide if there was a mass shooter in campus. It’s such an indictment of this country how we have normalized these preventable tragedies.

New discovery: 4th-century mosaic hall unearthed in Türkiye’s ancient Hadrianopolis
The mosaics feature motifs such as peacocks drinking from a fountain, geometric patterns, ribbon designs, or an eight-pointed star. About 80% of the mosaic has survived intact.

This heavy copper alloy helmet once belonged to a Roman gladiator. It was originally tinned to give it a shiny, silvery surface and it would also have had a face guard. It was discovered in Hawkedon, Suffolk, and is the only example of gladiator equipment ever found in Britain. #FindsFriday

There are reports that the FDA intends to put a “black box” warning on COVID-19 vaccines.
This is not in line with the science, which shows that COVID-19 are safe and have saved millions of lives.
This would be a serious abuse of power by FDA officials to further antivax political goals.

WOW. @haleaziz.bsky.social with a new scoop: ICE now gets a running list of every person who is going to be taking a domestic flight inside the United States from the TSA and runs it through their database looking for targets. This explains the Babson College student's arrest.
