The TA was doing her/their work correctly, the student was being mediocre and transphobic… Trans people get fired despite doing our jobs right in societies/spaces where we’ve always been seen as disposable and not really valued as humans let alone “team members”. Cis-sexism sucks.

Every single congressional Democrat needs to be out there, right now, insisting that Pete Hegseth resign right now and announcing that he will be held accountable for committing war crimes.

If you do not demand accountability here and now, they will only become more emboldened.
Exclusive: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth gave an order to “kill everybody” in the first strike on suspected drug boats in the Caribbean. After two men survived, the mission commander ordered a second strike to comply with Hegseth’s instructions, according to two sources.
Hegseth order on first Caribbean boat strike, officials say: Kill them all
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth issued a verbal order to kill all crew members in the Sept. 2 strike on a suspected drug boat. Navy SEALs fired a second missile.

Trump administration officials are 100% absolutely going to order the murder of American citizens at some point, in addition to people overseas, and every single one of these people needs to know that they will be held accountable, and hopefully it’s spend the rest of their lives in prison for this.

This means NSF dissertation improvement grants in the social sciences are simply...not happening.
NEW from me - NSF cancels grant scheme for social science research.

Seems the NSF quietly archived ALL calls for DDRIG grants in the SBE directorate. This is a massive blow for PhD students wanting to do cutting-edge social science research. 🏺🧪

Friendly reminder that striking workers are asking you not to patronize ANY Starbucks store.

If you're traveling this week, your airport definitely has other options. Zero reason to even think about crossing a picket line!

They want to make an example of David Huerta to scare organizers, immigrants, workers, and politicians into silence. But the example he sets is courage – and we stand united in solidarity for #JusticeForDavid

NEW — Rashida Tlaib and 20 other members of Congress have introduced a resolution to officially recognize Israel's genocide of the Palestinian people.

It notes that between 10/23 and 11/25, the US sent $21,700,000,000 in military aid to Israel and authorized $30,000,000,000+ in new weapons deals.

As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history.

Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX

Vogue's absorption of and closure of Teen Vogue feels like -- is -- a direct attack on a new generation of queer journalists who were committed to excellence and the power of journalism to illuminate the stories of people at the margins.

And it impacts all of us, no matter our age.

This is why independent and nonprofit media is so important - we can't trust corporations to pursue anything other than their own interests

This is a huge loss for us all - Teen Vogue has been an excellent source of hard hitting journalism
I was laid off from Teen Vogue today along with multiple other staffers, and today is my last day.

certainly more to come from me when the dust has settled more, but to my knowledge, after today, there will be no politics staffers at Teen Vogue.

The network that was literally sustained on the backs of women & people of color is now firing exactly those people.

CBS/Paramount might not have survived w/o Lucille Ball & Desi Arnaz's Desilu Productions, & the weight they then lent to making a bunch of other shows happen.

I mean what the hell.

Donated to this. It’s not illegal to heckle a federal agent, and these idiots arrested him for no reason. let’s enable tyler to sue about this

Let me be very clear. It is not enough that RFK Jr. was forced to admit today that no causal relationship between Tylenol and autism has been shown.

We know that while disinformation spreads like wildfire on social media, corrections most often die on the vine.

It’s ok to take a break.

It’s ok to unplug.

It’s ok to not keep up with the news 24/7.

It’s ok to prioritize your health, your down time or whatever you need to survive.

Rest is resistance, especially when you’re living with chronic illness.

Don’t feel guilty. You’re worth protecting.

Emily Tucker argues that the AI regulation debate largely misses the point: the real threat to democracy is unchecked data extraction and accumulation that is fueling corporate power. “We can have mass surveillance, or we can have political self-determination. We can’t have both,” she writes.
To Have Democracy, We Must Contest Data | TechPolicy.Press
Emily Tucker makes the case for redlines for data, not AI—real limits on corporate data collection to protect democracy and political self-determination.

Not to mention. . . we lose unlimited ride options (weekly and monthly Metrocards)

The only people benefiting from this are surveillance capitalists
The NYC MTA is transitioning to OMNY tap-and-pay cards, rendering swipe cards obsolete by June 2026.

OMNY is notorious for tracking riders through our devices, digital wallets, and credit card top-ups, and the MTA is besties with the NYPD. MTA Surveillance is a given.
