Cultural commentary, justice, liberal religion, coastal Witch. Feminist smackdowns, beagles, cats, theatre, film, miscellany. Boston-ish.
I still occasionally grieve that there was so little haberdashery in the costuming of Game of Thrones. The North remembers, but the North was also in subzero eternal winter with NO HATS. Why, John Snow?

Plays and movies just don't need to be that long. What is this wearying trend and whence?? BIGGER IS NOT BETTER, gentlemen. And I say gentlemen because it's male directors who are pulling this exhausting nonsense.

The travel industry is shockingly ableist. Zero disclosure about things like needing to climb stairs to board and deplane. @aegeanairlines.bsky.social You really need to add this information to your basic information about flights.

A lot of the people lamenting Marjorie Taylor Greene’s departure from Congress—and celebrating her as some kind of principled maverick—are going to end up eating their words when she reemerges in 2028 to help lead a pro-groper, pro-Fuentes “America First” faction of the GOP.

When Evanston found out that Flock was breaking the terms of the contract, & was sharing data with other departments, that then shared the data with ICE, Evanston immediately put covers over the cameras & left them covered while they cancelled the contract & they were removed
Atlanta is assisting ICE and other federal law enforcement in abductions by giving them access to the city’s Flock traffic cameras.

For non-academics who might not understand why:
1. Sen. Warren is still a Harvard professor so this is a call coming from inside the house
2. As a tenured law prof, Warren knows it is a VERY big deal from a labor standpoint to call on Harvard to ignore tenure. The bar for this is HIGH.

Per CNN, Elizabeth Warren is calling on Harvard to cut ties with Larry Summers after Jeffrey Epstein's emails released last week by House Dems featured Summers making sexist comments + asking for Epstein’s romantic advice.

Solo travel is another one of my lifelong joys that goes largely unacknowledged as a fantastic option. Even when I had a partner I was always much happier traveling alone. There are so many benefits.
