hi Peyton and Alfie, thank you for holding this space each week. i would love to stay, but i've schoolwork that demands my attention this afternoon. 💙🐹💙 #HealingPurrsPawty

a while ago i mentioned a student showed up to class having missed the first 3 meets because he "forgot the semester" had started. i was the only prof that hadn't dropped him. he's turned in all of his homework since, hasn't missed a single class since, and just pulled an A- on his midterm!

The same day SCOTUS dismantled the Voting Rights Act, I watched Kamala Harris take the stage at the Douglas Awards. She didn’t offer comfort; she offered real talk 🔥 “This is how they play. They are strategic. They think long-term and they are ruthless…we have to be ruthless too.”

In the 24 hours since the Supreme Court's majority ruled to demolish the Voting Rights Act's remaining protections, Louisiana and Tennessee have already signaled that they'll redraw their congressional maps with the clear effect of shutting Black voters out.

Look at this folks. @nytimes.com copied our original headline, then didn’t have the decency and ethics to credit @nickjudin.bsky.social for breaking and writing the hell out of this story.

New York Times: If you're gonna crib our headline, you could at least credit Nick Judin and the Mississippi Free Press for first reporting it 2 days earlier. I'm glad this story is getting national attention. But Nick puts a lot of himself in these stories, and deserves credit (just as we'd do).

the week's online grading is done, the weekly wrap-up posts are sent, next up tomorrow, finishing grading the in-person midterm essays to be turned back this Monday, then, at last, i will be caught up! (to work on the admin stuff i've neglected--what can i say, my students come first)

how sad for Talankin. i hope his Oscar is found. i also hope the Academy provides him another should it become necessary.

To everyone in Maine & to everyone who has to connections to people in Maine, talk up this guy! Get people to move from Mills to him. And since Maine has Ranked Choice voting, be sure to rank this guy first, and write-in candidate Andrea LaFlamme second. Don't rank Platner. www.costelloforsenate.com

one can tell how bored i am by grading by my sharing this link to the wiki page that explains the Union Jack and why there is a correct, right side up, to the flag en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Union_J...

I think letting SNAP recipients have hot rotisserie chicken is good, actually.

The Supreme Court just made it harder to challenge legislative maps drawn to dilute the voting power of Black and Latino voters. This is a green light for unconstitutional attacks on the voting rights generations of Americans bled and died to secure.

This morning’s Supreme Court ruling only further underscores the urgent need for Congress to protect and expand voting rights. We still need to pass the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act and the Freedom to Vote Act.

Just going to say this: if you are disabling responses & disabling quote posts - why are you here? Isn't that a lot like being in a conversation where the other person is there purely to serve as your audience? It's certainly not a dialogue or discussion.

All those politicians running for their lives during a shooting finally got to understand how kids in schools feel.

no doubt about it, tater tots rule

welp, something unexpected it seems happened at the press prom. as for me, i'm going to take my evening walk (in the rain!), come home, put some tater tots in the oven, prepare a green salad, and reheat a bowl of yesterday's black bean/chicken chili. it's what's for dinner!

it would seem the dinner has turned into breaking news holy hell
