A friend of mine was on Charlie Kirk's "watch list" of Black professors. She received so many death and rape threats that her university offered her a security detail for the walk to class. This is Kirk's legacy. You would never know it from reading all of these legacy newspaper op-eds about him.

I really really want a dog. It’s almost been 2 years since Shep passed and I need a little buddy to take for walks and snuggle 😭 But my landlord doesn’t allow pets. But maybe he’d compromise and allow a small dog if I asked very very nicely?

Trump and Hegseth screwing over trans veterans on retirement benefits is an easy slam dunk politically for Democrats to flip the narrative on trans folks and that's exactly why they'll continue going on podcasts talking about how bigots have a point about sports.

The White House is taking new steps to undermine every international student at our universities. It has approved a new rule restricting student visas to 4 years max. That's not long enough for PhD students, or about half of undergrads, to finish their degree. Likely to enter force within days.
