The amount of hatred towards higher ed right now is terrifying. Let me make that clear: we are terrified. I work at a more conservative university and I’m scared as fuck right now.
Please stop picking on the people who actually know a thing or two about Stalinism.

I forgot the endless anonymity of using a pseudonym everywhere so you know what?
About 1.5 years ago I was bullied so badly at my workplace that I was paid to go away. Me. I was the one who was paid to leave.
I accepted a small settlement for a few months’ of wages and agreed to not sue.

I'm struck daily by the contrast between advancements in modern technology and the lack of progress in humanity.

My hot take is that if the current administration was supporting the active slaughter of my friends and family, I would have a hard time voting for said administration, even if the other option was worse.
People need to stop complaining about Muslims not voting for Kamala.

I saw on TikTok that other countries are holding protests about what’s happening here in the US. At first I was like… what? That sounds too amazing and incredible to be true. But my kiddo in London said she went to one just the other day.

Just remember, darlings:
they never even have to fight to make it a law if we all comply in advance
Most executive orders don’t mean shit. There’s work they have to do after in order for it to go anywhere.
But if you get it twisted and comply in advance, well, they don’t even have to try.

If you have young people in your life, sit them down literally tomorrow and tell them to always ask questions. Question everything. If anyone does or says anything and you don’t understand why, ask. Even if you’re only a tiny bit curious. Even if it’s annoying. Even if it pisses off the adults.

Bluesky @bsky.app has a serious safety problem.
Lists can be useful and positive, but they can also be dangerous because they are often used for targeted harassment.
The solution is simple.
Allow users to get OFF of lists by blocking the acct that posted the list. Let us keep ourselves safe.

Anyway if anyone is interested in what will come next, just know that in every other variation of this same damn playbook, they’ll seek to deintellectualise public education so they can create a culture of asking less questions and quelling curiosity and logic.

I wish I had some really eloquent way to say everything I’m feeling today. I don’t, so I’m just going to head tilt gesture towards negative personality cult examples like Stalin, then insistently head tilt gesture towards Trump and Elon.
Get their fanboys & fangirls in check or, you know, gulags.

Trolls are coming over here from the shitty place and making lists.
Report the lists and block the accounts making them. Don't give the asshats the satisfaction of your attention.
Also, be careful about blocking lists, they're doing things like adding left wing accounts to M*GA lists etc.

One thing before tomorrow:
Use your local libraries.
Get your card.
Borrow books, manga, films, audios, ebooks.
Recommend titles for purchase (usually online).
Attend promoted activities.
Fill out those "How are we doing?" questionnaires.
Tell your kids that libraries are good.
They are.
