Disenfranchising women is a key project of Christian nationalism.
The Christian Nationalist Plot to Disenfranchise Women Voters
The SAVE Act, which purports to fend off the phantasmal threat of voter fraud, would throw millions of women off the voting rolls.

I am going to have to be On Here a bit less--this morning I got curious and checked, and my heart rate had jumped from its normal ~70bpm to 127bpm.

I'll still offer suggestions about things to do. But this is a reminder to take breaks when you need to. This is a marathon, not a sprint.

In the article, Philip Cohen (2025) discusses some of the uncertainties many academics may be feeling at the moment. The author provides some tips for scholars grappling with this uncertainty and urges us to write “as if the truth really matters.”
Write as if the truth really matters (opinion)
As both citizens and scholars, now is not the time to withdraw, Philip N. Cohen writes.

So magical!
A snowy scene with frost-covered trees lining the area. The ground is covered in thick snow, with small mounds visible. Streetlights stand along the road, contrasting against the natural elements. The sky is clear with soft lighting, suggesting early morning or late afternoon.

Really beautiful frost in Saskatoon!
This image depicts a serene winter scene with tall trees covered in frost, their branches stark and white against a vibrant blue sky. The frost creates a shimmering effect, highlighting the intricate details of the branches. Utility poles and wires run through the scene, adding an urban element to the natural beauty. The perspective, looking up, emphasizes the grandeur of the trees as they form an arch-like canopy over the street below. The overall atmosphere is calm and picturesque, evoking a cold yet bright winter day.
