Wow: Lemkin Institute for Genocide Prevention (named for Holocaust survivor Raphael Lemkin, who coined term "genocide") calls Clinton's remarks "genocide denial."

"Young people in the US are not stupid or gullible. They simply reject genocide – something the Secretary might consider doing as well."

"The democrats need to be open to people who experience hardship and the people who cause it."
Gov. @gavinnewsom says he disagrees with Mayor @zohrankmamdani about the need for a wealth tax on billionaires, which he is “adamantly against” - says Dems are a “big tent party” with both views.

The USPS posting a NINE BILLION DOLLAR LOSS!!! sounds terrible. Certainly worse than if you said "USPS costs thirty dollars per person per year" even though that means the same thing and more accurately describes a government service

So let me get this straight, you've created a vending machine for Crows? Yup.
And and you've trained them to 'buy' seeds by dropping cigarette butts into a slot? Yup.
And this idea emerged as an urban refuse solution? Yup.
Wow.

“I saw everything,” said Frog. “You did very well by yourself.”

“I did not,” said Toad. “But there is one thing that I can do all by myself.”

“What is that?” asked Frog.

“I can go home,” said Toad. “Winter may be beautiful, but bed is much better.”

Don't blame the turner diaries troglodytes literally dismantling the Department of Education, blame the 11 year old with ADHD who needs an extra 30 minutes for the test.
So they're just transparently starting the drumbeat against a new vilified group just like they did with trans athletes, racial minority students, MeToo/BLM/anti-genocide activists, etc. right?

There always needs to be a group who's "unfairly taking your kid's spot"
Even by the standards of The Atlantic, this is an extraordinarily weak evidence base for an article.

Data from a tiny handful of schools that isn't measuring the variable at issue and a few thin, secondhand anecdotes.

“Wow you must be so flexible” OR “you make money doing that????”
What’s the worst question someone can ask after you tell them your profession? For linguists, it’s definitely “how many languages do you speak?”, but I’m curious what else is happening to the rest of y’all out there?!

There have long been rumors that the Skull and Bones fraternity house in New Haven contains the skull of Apache leader Geronimo.

A researcher unearthed a letter in 2006 that seemed to corroborate that claim.

I found two more letters in Yale’s archives, along with more corroborating evidence.
While we’re on the topic:

Letters I found in Yale archives said Skull and Bones members took Native American remains from a grave in Oklahoma in 1918.

I just donated to Indigenous Women Rising and you should too!
Everyday is Indigenous Peoples Day but today we say FUCK COLUMBUS just a little louder.

Non-natives, a great way to acknowledge this day is to donate to Indigenous Led organizations that support and benefit Indigenous People directly.

Genocide is still happening in Gaza.

And, at a slower - but still horrific - pace, in the West Bank.

I thought you should know.
