The New School was founded by Columbia University professors who wanted a university run by the faculty with minimal administration. For over 100 years it has been a unique institution with progressive values and incredible students and faculty from Ai Weiwei to Hannah Arendt. We are devastated.

Last week, the New School issued voluntary separation & early retirement offers to 40% of the full-time faculty & the majority of non-union staff. These cuts to the bone are an ideological attempt to decimate historic spaces of critical inquiry & social justice. Share our statement tr.ee/qQBIDCpIuj

I don't think we currently appreciate the bravery of what these 12 Black students did and the significance it had on racial equality. www.nytimes.com/2025/12/13/u...

What makes me angriest about the fake AI videos where people yell at ICE is that there’s a million actual videos, there’s actual priests being pelted with pepper balls, it’s just that the real priest didn’t say “we worship the real God not your ORANGE one” so he wasn’t quippy enough

If a reasonable person would know the order is illegal, you MUST refuse. Obedience is not absolute, duty to the Constitution is. Oath is to defend the Constitution not a person Yes. U.S. service members have a legal and moral obligation to disobey an illegal order. Not just the right. The DUTY.

thank you for all the support; the statement from our union is now live here with some more reporting. now that this is public I can confirm that the majority of today’s layoffs were women of color. there are no longer any Black women working at Teen Vogue.

This video from Portland is a metaphor for what is going on in America. ICE trying so hard to get Americans to cross a line and if they don't, dragging them across the line and violently attacking.

Raskin: In any event, if he really cared about public safety in DC… he would not have pardoned 1600 insurrectionists and violent cop beaters on his first day in office. 

Sick of the enshittification of your search results? I've been using @kagi.com for about 18 months now and love it. Wouldn't dream of switching back to the old place. Came across this excellent write-up which also discusses some of the other search engines.

I feel this should be a bigger story, right?

What the fuck is the point of paying money to a police department if they won’t protect people from hostile masked kidnappers?

🪧PUBLIC SERVICE MESSAGE 🪧

Statement from Buona Forchetta about the ICE raid last night. 💔

Looking at dozens of videos of ICE kidnappings and wondering: Why are we just filming these things? What if we called 911 to report an illegal kidnapping in progress and forced local and state authorities to confront them, document who is being taken, in other words do their jobs: protect and serve?

This Memorial Day weekend, the best way to honor the soldiers who gave the ultimate sacrifice is to honor and protect the freedoms and the democracy they died for.

Republican-led US House of Representatives voted to curtail the ability of judges to issue nationwide injunctions blocking government policies after key parts of President Donald Trump's agenda have been stymied by such court rulings reut.rs/3R8qJun

Don't send obvious troll shit. Make your tips as credible sounding as possible to ensure maximum time wastage. :)

The judges at Nuremberg rejected the “following orders” defense. They said that when an individual follows an order that is illegal under international law, he is responsible for that choice. We never forget

UNITED NATIONS (AP) — Phone video from one of 15 Palestinian medics killed by Israeli forces last month appears to contradict Israeli claims that the medics’ vehicles did not have emergency signals on when troops opened fire on them in southern Gaza.

“Defendants are hereby ORDERED to facilitate and effectuate the return of Plaintiff Kilmar Armando Abrego Garcia to the United States by no later than 11:59 PM on Monday, April 7, 2025” I look forward to learning from @chrisgeidner.bsky.social the argument the DOJ has cooked up for their appeal…

I kind of want to go
