😳😳😳🤮🤮🤮

This is a straightforward Republican attack line, what the fuck is he doing

Wait where… where did they get these titles?

"Interested in my commentary on her outfits" "There are huge ups with her but very self involved and to get her to be good probably requires more firmness than I enjoy."

I honestly can’t process how they see this as something new. It’s his whole deal! Always has been!

I had a lot of fun giving this as a talk at the Clayman Institute last week (the depressing subject matter notwithstanding)! Reworking it into a book chapter now with all my colleagues' excellent feedback in mind. #GenderStudies

I wanted to share probably the most important sermon I’ve given and it’s while I’m being arrested. It’s torture pure and simple what happens at #Broadview. I’m ok, though I was thrown to the ground and choked with my pectoral cross. A review of the video shows I was peaceful - did I deserve this?

When I think about how exquisitely careful NEH staff were to be fair, impartial, and rigorous, and how much work people put into grants so small they’re pocket change…I just want to scream.

Was eine traumhafte Nachbarschaft in der @suhrkamp.de Verlagsvorschau!!! Meine kleine pinke Parzelle direkt neben @unddieregel.bsky.social und @jwmueller-pu.bsky.social!

it's incredible how badly they've bungled this despite near total elite buy-in or at least acquiescence in industry, finance, higher education, political media, and especially congress and the courts

Toad sat on the edge of his bed. “Blah,” said Toad. “I feel down in the dumps.” “Why?” asked Frog. “I am thinking about tomorrow,” said Toad.

Yeah but I know it when I see one

Quick question what would that say about our nation?

Rather than let them escape, conservative policymakers are trying to trap women in marriage and motherhood. Because caregiving responsibilities make it harder for women to get themselves out.

Some @inbedwiththeright.bsky.social updates since I’ve not been on here very much (book manuscript home stretch): we just released this episode on spousal rape laws with the amazing @sarahweinman.com! It’s admittedly a dark topic, but please check it out, if you feel up to it!

Epistemic violence against sexual abuse accusers—smearing them as deluded, crazy, or incompetent—is something rapists know works, and they conspire to do it.

The International Olympic Committee is set to ban trans and intersex women from competition. This is despite the fact that for 20 years, the IOC has allowed trans athletes to compete and only 1 has ever competed and none have ever won a medal. www.the-independent.com/sport/olympi...

I haven't been on twitter in over a year but it seems like Musk has transformed it into a powerful platform devoted to proving he's the most embarrassing person who's ever lived.

Ich stelle mir vor, eine überlegene außerirdische Intelligenz entführte eine große Gruppe von Menschen, und zwänge sie, während sie durchs All rasen, nur Debatten zwischen Mansour, Precht und Spahn anzuschauen. Der Sauerstoff geht langsam aus, die ersten Raumfahrer sterben weg. (1/3)

Ich frage mich, welche/r nordamerikanische/r Denker:in derzeit in Deutschland eine Rede halten könnte, ohne einen kollektiven Nervenzusammenbruch zu provozieren. Mir fallen nur Donald Rumsfeld und Ayaan Hirsi Ali ein.

I got this useful bon mot from a middle school teacher recently. In response to, “I DONT UNDERSTAND,” he calmly said, “okay what steps have you taken to understand?” And that’s when I realized that a lot of folks have no steps.

Do you know how hard it is to politically radicalize someone who joined a website to reply with the cry laughing emoji to the Trix cereal rabbit?

Lol. Lmao even.

Wrong answers only

“woke” is when you acknowledge that black people have contributed to the united states

Federal agents forbidding faith leaders from praying sounds like a violation of religious freedom. But then I remember that “religious” means “white Christian identity politics,” and “freedom” means “Christian nationalists’ unrestricted ability to impose their beliefs on others.”

In the name of protecting Jews, Jews have their funding cancelled, get kicked out of seminars, and are removed from leadership positions in Jewish Studies to be replaced by non-Jews.

But wait, I thought X was the world’s agora and snowflakes like me were wrong to abandon it for the brain rot of “Blueskyism”!!!

It feels so telling to me that our elite institutions are caving just as everyday people are seeing first successes in their push back against the authoritarian onslaught.

He beat the wrap.

Once again, we need to define what “feminism” is here. Not everything any woman ever does—not even in the political realm, and not even concerning gender—is “feminism.” Opposing the rights of women as a class to equal status and dignity is in fact called “antifeminism.”

the question nobody with a soul is asking, answered by people nobody wants to hear from

What is the posing as an ICE officer compared to being an ICE officer?

Getting new details on this now: As the arrest unfolded, teachers pleaded with the agents telling them the teacher had a work permit. The agents went into multiple rooms looking for teachers while children were present. One teacher hid with a child in her care while the agents stormed the facility.

The obsessive wokeness panic is about elite labor market competition and prestige. People use a lot of fancy words to obscure this, and offer some substantive criticisms as well, but that’s ultimately its driving force.

The only person who has been seizing private companies through the power of the state is Trump.

“Government civil rights enforcement is now being driven by the equivalent of a YouTube comment section.” www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Probably about time for another diarrhea dump video.

It me 🥲

“Turn the volume up” is just insane contemporary speech work.

Lol my first election as an American citizen and it got called in under 5 minutes

Zohran has already gotten 250k more votes than Eric Adams did 4 years ago when he was hailed as the future of the Democratic Party.

The last month of the anti-Mamdani campaign was an absolutely shameful undertaking, an attempt to rip the city and Democratic coalition apart and I'm very happy to see it failed.

Gentlemen: thank you for your service.

i can’t believe a good thing happened we should do this more often

After tonight’s results shed a tear for transphobes in the Democratic Party who will now have to just own their desire to throw trans people under the bus and can no longer displace it onto “voters”

My regards to everyone watching the racists scream and cry. 🙏🏻
