in addition to being a big creepy doofus this guy also spent the 90's pushing for the regulatory reform that cleared the way for the 2008 financial crisis so it is really unclear what enlightened ideas this guy really needs to be teaching. but those ideas are probably really valuable to some donors
Larry Summers tells @theharvardcrimson.bsky.social
he’s stepping back from all public commitments in light of his messages with Epstein, saying he is “deeply ashamed” and hopes “to rebuild trust and repair relationships.”

William Douglas' dissent fucks hard for a guy born in 1898! "It is the future of the student [...] that is imperiled by today's decision. If a parent keeps his child out of school [...] then the child will be forever barred from [...] the new and amazing world of diversity that we have today."

mfw i was sure "university dropout" would look good on my pitch deck and i missed the lecture on relational algebra
DOGE is doing great work with the databases. Definitely didn't somehow accidentally join/merge tables for respondents and their appearing attorneys.
Some personal news: the Department of Homeland Security has given me, an immigration lawyer born in Newton, Massachusetts, seven days to leave the U.S. Does anyone know if you can get Italian citizenship through great-grandparents?

1. Today, the New York Times Editorial Board published a piece titled "Trump's Shameful Campaign Against Transgender Americans."
I criticize the paper's attempt to wash away the paper's own culpability in ushering in an era of eradication-based policies.

I have successfully gained weight on European food ama about how European food is not magic
Ainsley Earhardt makes a case for RFK Jr: "When you go to Europe, the food is delicious. It's so fresh. And you don't gain weight if you eat a big bowl of pasta. So we want that to come here to America."
