UPDATE @ms.now: Per police chief, at least 3 dead in the Pawtucket ice rink shooting — which appeared to be a “targeted event” involving a “family dispute." Three more victims are in critical condition.

i am SO ready to radicalize my intro to STS students with daniella’s ‘bad press’ episode next week 💕💕💕💕

"Sally wants to graduate from college, establish a career, marry an ideal partner, buy a home, and have a baby by age 27.5. If she takes a gap year to backpack around Europe, will she have a baby on time (before all her eggs die)?"

People targeted by federal agents - for their skin color, accents, or immigration status - are afraid to seek healthcare; healthcare staff are fearful for their safety at work. Here's how Minnesota providers are responding to an unfolding crisis - my latest:

Academia is so incredibly fucked up and also a lot of the intellectual work that goes on in the academy is incredibly important Part of what makes life in the academy tough is holding and navigating both of these truths at the same time

summoning the courage to email my students (i’m teaching at a new institution for the first time) to tell them masks will be required in class, please send encouraging thoughts

rejected from academic job i was finalist for in email sent at 10:35 pm on a saturday night???!

my street was not plowed for two days, prohibiting anyone from driving anywhere. when we finally got plowed tuesday night, parking on the streets of fox point was impossible and/or a liability

OMFG

The fact that they are making Bovino the fall guy shows that they are worried, but it does not mean that any policy changes. It's a signal to increase the pressure even more, not back down.

I have had that feeling before where in the middle of an action you feel how tangibly another world is possible, but this time I feel it across an entire city. So many here are seeing what life could be like if it were organized around different principles, if the rhythm were completely different

I introduced legislation for Providence to create the Crook Street Bridge Authority. Channel 10 has the story:

It's -20 in Minneapolis and organizers are in the streets before dawn getting ready for actions related to the general strike. They've had locals training out-of-town volunteers on how to prepare for and endure the cold. AND IT IS WORKING. THE STRIKE IS HAPPENING. THE CITY IS DOING THE DAMN THING...

they tell you a good dissertation is a done dissertation until it’s done and then they say actually, it also needs to be good

A thing that might not be clear from the outside is that while everyone here is engaged in this fight, ICE’s use of dystopian technology means that you essentially have to pick a lane between observing ICE and doing mutual aid. They are tracking observers’ cars, and taking pictures of their faces.

I’ve been writing Popular Information for 8 years, and this is one of the most important stories I’ve ever published. This is a humanitarian crisis that has gone unreported.

Yes in thunder. My syllabus statement:

Holy shit. Renee Good was alive when the bystander physician asked to check her pulse. She was alive when ICE refused to let him help. She was alive when they told him “I don’t care.” www.nytimes.com/live/2026/01...

Great piece by @drjudystone.bsky.social 🤩 "Last week, the WHN sent a letter to the WHO urging them to declare respirators as the default protection for healthcare workers, rather than surgical masks. They said that FFP2/3 respirators or N95s should be the standard." www.forbes.com/sites/judyst...

my style is self-deprecation while knowing i’m right ;)

Instead of ending the constitution and murdering people, we could have high speed trains and universal health care.

The “insurrectionists” in Minnesota are doing things like delivering groceries to neighbors who can’t safely leave their homes.

This isn't satire. This is a real headline published in the UK.

Example #439 of RI’s a blue state, but still conservative AF, from State Senator Tiara Mack’s newsletter tonight, “It was almost impossible for me to introduce a resolution [against ICE]. Condemning ICE was seen as too controversial and divisive for the Senate floor.” 😱

ICE AGENT: “I love my job. I can’t believe they pay me to do this. I’d do it for free. I only went to high school and I make $200,000.”

"Some have been puzzled by the fact that MAGA, a movement of white nationalism, is so quick to demonize white women But there is no paradox here. White nationalism depends on a certain type of white woman: someone who is “loyal” to the white race and compliant with patriarchy."
