Love this country never going home

News Analysis: The Supreme Court will hear arguments on Wednesday on the legality of President Trump’s order to end birthright citizenship. Some conservative legal experts say the case might be a closer call than once thought.

this is surely a cry for help from the grocery store employees

I’ve already declined two conferences in the US this year This is more reason to avoid the country 👇🏾

I still remember how her confirmation hearings were an education to her questioners on the nature of their jobs, just in the way she answered the questions. She’s a profound justice.

Lovely

literally have witnessed a male professor be credibly accused of rape and other sexual improprieties not only be “punished” with merely removal from the classroom so he can focus on publishing… but he got tenure and is now associate chair of the department he works in.

Love these library boxes 💚

I'm passionate about Black women getting mammograms. I'm worried about how few of us get them especially at the right time. If I ever get to retire, I want to do more around this issue.

ICE murdered a[nother] woman named Daphy Michel. #SayHerName

(1/11) If you live in NY, you’ve probably started seeing a new warning: “THIS PRICE WAS SET BY AN ALGORITHM USING YOUR PERSONAL DATA.” This mandatory disclosure went into effect late last year, and it’s the first attempt by a US state to grapple with a new generation of surveillance pricing.

Kristi Noem has done a stunning amount of damage and it’s good she’s gone. But this doesn’t change the fact that we need a complete overhaul of DHS, impartial investigations into the killings of two American citizens, and information on children that were taken from Minnesota.

Happy (Lunar) New Year! @ Hasan Minhaj. Bring on the ☄️🐎 fire horse.

I was literally teaching Sara Ahmed’s work on how the whiteness of institutions is a result of a series of decisions about the allocation of resources, who to recruit, what to prioritize. The values of an institution are most clearly indicated in their budgets.

The families in the railroad’s path said they see this as another instance in a pattern of extraction that has defined this corner of Georgia since before the Civil War. bit.ly/4qS3nIA

Persona, the age verification company used by Roblox & Discord was hacked. And despite the company & platforms claiming Persona utilised “zero knowledge” methodologies to verify age, they are gathering user data. Palantir is one of Persona’s main investors. www.malwarebytes.com/blog/news/20...

Discord has announced that it's cutting ties with Persona, the AI software company backed by Peter Thiel used for age and identity verification.

Is anyone here on Spill? It really does feel like the opposite place to here…

The Epstein files document what many women researchers have long experienced but rarely seen laid bare so starkly: exclusion operating behind closed doors, shaping who gets funded, invited, mentored, and taken seriously. How many of these networks, norms, and gatekeepers remain in place?

“To not acknowledge the unique effect of a racial slur is a form of indifference to the suffering of others. The problem of being indifferent to the suffering of black folk while also imploring folks to have empathy for Davidson cannot be understated.” — @nubluesnick.bsky.social

You can tell they are cutting up

Hey! Scholars! If you're using someone's work in your class, sometimes it's nice to email them and tell them, because then they might feel good about their research instead of entirely crushed by the academic humanities' ongoing descent into the grave

I love radio. Hear me talk about my new book. The paperback edition comes out tomorrow!

A mother in Minneapolis was abducted by ICE and sent to a detention center in Texas, leaving behind a 16 year old and a 3-month old baby. The baby was breastfed and hadn't eaten in a over day. Then a superhero arrived with 350 oz of breastmilk, bottles & extra clothes. 19thnews.org/2026/02/minn...

Can someone recommend a biography of George Washington to read? Starting a new project.
