Delighted that my article is out at @ejprjournal.bsky.social! 🎉🎉 Thanks to @lalamur.bsky.social for posting about it! 💜

I’ve been taking photos of the cats that I see on my walks with Lihue (my dog)…I thus present my ongoing collection: “Cats of Kitsilano”

Nothing to add.

Cockwomble thought this would be an appropriate post today 🎯 #donaldtrump #Scotland

If the sentiments on the t-shirts are accurate, I recommend some serious couple's therapy for incest and infidelity...or, alternatively, you can just read the wikipedia entry on Hera and Zeus and change your relationship goals 🤷‍♀️

Thrilled to share that my project, “Unequal Voices, Unequal Rules: Reimagining Democracy’s Boundaries,” has been funded by SSHRC! Grateful for the support and excited to work with students on investigating democracy’s hidden boundaries. Send me a message if you’d like to know more ☺️

This is not what I call breaking news for which I need a notification!

Trump to the President of Liberia: "Such good English. Where did you learn to speak so beautifully?" English is the official language of Liberia...

'Vacations.' The word is 'vacations.'

A 49 year old Canadian has died while in ICE custody.

What an unserious person. I will never be able to unsee the people suffocating in their own bodies because the virus melted their lungs. Whole families showing up together at the brink of death. Myself & my colleagues putting on garbage bags & months-old N95 to resuscitate them in hospital driveways

I will be damned if I allow a bunch of Confederate-waving January 6th apologists give the American people a lecture on flag waving. There is ZERO reason to enter an argument about patriotism with people who still worship traitors to America 150+ years later. They. Are. Breaking. The. Law.

As Aristotle taught us, there are four kinds of regime: aristocracy, democracy, kingship, and two rich blowhards with fragile egos.

BREAKING: The Florida higher education system Board of Governors rejects the hiring of Santa Ono as University of Florida president. Vote was 6 yes, 10 no.

In my first op-ed for @nytimes.com, I argue that the alliance between Silicon Valley & the US government is a threat to democracy. The Republican tax bill now up in the Senate, which would ban states from regulating AI for a decade, will only cement that trajectory. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/30/o...

Government run journals for scientific output…what could possibly go wrong? If you’re a young or aspiring scientist, why in the world would you ever choose to study or work in the US?

I wrote one of my comprehensive exam answers on his work...

Let me correct it for you: Exit poll shows liberal mayor and *PiS stooge who lied about being an independent* are front-runners in Poland presidential election

Academic bluesky: does anyone have access to a complete (not excerpted) PDF of Przeworski's "Minimalist Conception of Democracy: A Defense" and is willing to share it with me?

Congratulations to the United States of America! your metamorphosis into a religious fascist state is nearly complete… seriously, waking up to this made me flashback to my childhood growing up in Iran. Yikes.

Many thanks and congratulations to the the lovely people of Carleton 💕🎉

Oh my God! Does he think the “st” after “51st” means street? Why the period???? 😱😱😱😱

My latest for @liberalcurrents.com We need to stop listening to commentators who spent a decade being arrogantly wrong about the fascist threat www.liberalcurrents.com/trump-alarmi...

This is the sickening behaviour of Poilievre MAGA CON supporters. Attacking the Prime Minister's wife. Disgusting low life people. #cdnpoli

One of the best Downfall takeoffs I’ve ever seen. The subtitles are simply brilliant.

Elon spent $25 mil to buy humiliation in Wisconsin. Not unlike Twitter, once again he overpaid. He could’ve gotten it for free.

Sounds pretty good to me tbh!
