Now can we please seriously the environmental impact of AI???????

Heading out today on 1st EV road trip. Will need to charge on way home. Please share tips for newbies.

The Situation, November 4, 2025 with @annabower.bsky.social

And an upset in Georgia! Two Dems elected to GA Public Service Commission which has been all Republican since 2007. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/04/u...

Grad students: My colleagues and I have organized an interdisciplinary conference! Come join us at Mcgill University in Montréal!

So helpful.

The Atlanta Airport sets an example. 🏆🏆🏆 @atlairport.bsky.social.

This is rather extraordinary: conservative Judge Luttig argues that Trump is destroying American democracy, the Supreme Court is AWOL, and 'We the People' are the final backstop for American democracy search.app/jWEG8

“It is also November. The noons are more laconic and the sundowns sterner...November always seemed to me the Norway of the year.” -Emily Dickinson, letter to Elizabeth Holland (Nov 1865) #everynightapoem #november

Not just Kavanaugh stops. Kavanaugh ransacking of apartments. open.substack.com/pub/migranti...

Sacrilege

Fall Ginko.

More of this please.

Here's a brilliant billboard campaign to put important messages before the National Guard troops being deployed to US cities! Another illustration of doing what we can, where we can. A model for us all! taskandpurpose.com/news/vet-gro...

Great to see this. Jeanette Rankin warranted a new biography. Loved researching in her papers in Montana. She makes an appearance in my next book.

This march to war is arguably even more illegal and appalling than Trump’s several other marches to war this year, Christ alive zeteo.com/p/team-trump...

Everything I needed to know!

Snake ID please.

In better news my book is coming out in paperback next March (pre-orders now available)! www.cornellpress.cornell.edu/book/9781501...

This year’s pumpkin, since the world is harrowing enough as it is.

Less than one week to go to submit an abstract for #BISA2026! The RIS editorial team would love to see all of you there.

What Arlie Hoschild found was that when women entered the workforce en masse in the 20th century, men functionally went on strike from domestic labor—forcing women to take on a double day of wages and caretaking work.

BREAKING: economist discovers “second shift,” a concept coined by sociologists almost 50 years ago; gives it new, stupider, and less explicitly labor-oriented name

Important from @charliesavage.bsky.social on "The Peril of a White House That Flaunts Its Indifference to the Law." www.nytimes.com/2025/10/24/u...

This is one of our biggest arguments: that OpenAI is vampirizing universities for the cachet and legitimacy that affiliation with higher education affords

Important op-ed by @jameeljaffer.bsky.social on the role of the Office of Legal Council and the importance of transparency. www.nytimes.com/2025/10/23/o...

Have you seen A House of Dynamite? Did you leave with more questions than answers? Unpack the movie with us - what was real, what was exaggerated, and what would happen next in an "Experts React" virtual event on November 6th at 11:30 am CT

The U.S. has conducted 10 strikes on alleged drug-carrying boats, killing 43 people. Remember: no judge or jury has found these boats were trafficking drugs. We're simply taking Trump's word for it. He’s unilaterally acting as judge, jury, and executioner. This is a danger to us all.

Totally worth watching.

😬

This house wins Halloween. There are, of course, birds on the mailbox and all over the yard.

Trump is summarily executing people suspected of being drug dealers, without providing any proof. How close are we to Trump ordering the execution of Americans he considers opponents? https://robertreich.substack.com/p/trumps-illegal-executions

My friend @marydudziak.bsky.social calls The Radical Fund a compelling salve for chaotic times—but has doubts! Is money the way out? balkin.blogspot.com/2025/10/what...

Dudziak asks, “Does a democratic society want our current billionaires to shape a vision for a just society, and carry it out with the effectiveness of Garland and his gang, when at least some of them are taking concrete steps to save themselves if the rest of the world is about to perish?”

@marydudziak.bsky.social reviews @johnfabianwitt.bsky.social: “As good as The Radical Fund is, it would be best if its history is not a template for the current generation of the wealthy.”

The Radical Fund by @johnfabianwitt.bsky.social is such a great read!

From the Daily Texan, the UT student newspaper: Academic freedom should not be for sale. thedailytexan.com/2025/10/16/a...

Best signs and costumes from ‘No Kings’ protests condemning the Trump administration

Dallas didn’t disappoint. #NoKings

No Kings-Austin,TX

this rocks. when indiana edu killed the student newspaper, Purdue stepped up, printed the forbidden issue, drove it to Bloomington and stocked the boxes.

This billboard is straight out of the 1840s. (Personal Liberty laws passed to prevent the kidnapping of black northerners). We are making the worst parts of our history great again.

San Diego is one of the biggest military towns in the United States. This is huge. #NoKings

[Exit pursued by a bear.]

South Korea: #NoKings! Thousands of people came to show support to the US democracy!
