Today is a good day to remember, and to say, that the #MeToo movement was right, and was righteous, and has been vindicated over and over again. There was no overreach. There was no excess. There was no they-went-too-far.
So much work remains to be done.

Today I was in a school library with a trained librarian. The school includes unhoused children and the kids of university professors. Watching how the librarian made all the kids feel welcome. Seeing the stiff, tense, worried body language soften. As they saw, maybe there is a space for me here. 💜

It’s probably not great to wake up this pissed off. Then I think of how pissed off Justice Jackson must be.

Yet another example of the lesser-ranked schools taking the stand that the bigger schools are too scared to.
Here: even as Ann Arbor caves on DEI, Eastern Michigan does not.
The courage of the smaller schools is laudable. The refusal of the bigger schools is frustrating.

thinking of one of abraham lincoln's great quotes this morning:
"As I would not be a slave, so I would not be a master. This expresses my idea of democracy. Whatever differs from this, to the extent of the difference, is no democracy."

"The best thing about heroes is that they always win at the end. And if they aren’t winning, then it’s not the end."—Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen in Kyiv to Volodymyr Zelenskyy.
This one is *much* better, and actually makes me tear up given the circumstances. But the other is useful too.

If one guy holds most of the tech people rely on, it is a vulnerability, but also it's one guy: as a global population we should be able to easily just take it from him, so it seems to me the real vulnerability is an internalized belief that private ownership is more sacrosanct than human thriving.
Musk threatens to shut off Starlink access if Ukraine won’t sign the minerals “deal”.
So many of us warned about Europe’s near-total tech dependence on the US. Deeply irresponsible to rely on the continued benevolence of an external actor for such vital systems. kyivindependent.com/us-threatens...

If the president can ignore court orders and illegally circumvent, Congress, there is no Constitution. It’s gone. There’s no enumerated right that the president can’t take from you, no law Congress can pass that is binding, and no court that can protect you from any of it. It’s the whole ballgame.
