I am deeply frustrated and ashamed of my alma mater, Texas A&M. Ordering a professor to remove or alter course content violates core university principles. It is the behavior of a censorship-driven institution that undermines academic freedom, learning, and intellectual progress.

Türkiye’de toplumun büyük çoğunluğu, kadınlar ve erkeklerin ev işlerini eşit bir şekilde paylaşması gerektiğini düşünüyor. Peki bu düşünce davranışlarına yansıyor mu?

We built an interactive tool on same-sex couples at the national, state, and county levels. It also allows you to explore data by gender, race/ethnicity, and relationship status. 👉

Men also reported a greater increase in both sexual activity and contraceptive use compared to women during the pandemic, raising an important question: who are these men having sex with? This gendered discrepancy highlights the persistence of traditional sexual norms in Turkey.

COVID-19 put a serious strain on couples in Turkey. Our data shows a rise in arguments and intolerance, but also deeper emotional bonds. Take a look at our snapshot for a glimpse into these dynamics:

Mahir Polat’ın yine hürriyetini tahdit suçu mahiyetinde bir tedbirle de olsa nihayet tahliye olması son derece yerindedir ve geniş kesimlerce sahiplenilen haklı bir adalet mücadelesinin sonucudur. Tüm arkadaşlarımızı, gençleri, haksız yere esir tutulan herkesi alacağız. Geçmiş olsun Mahir Başkan🍀

Big changes. 9.3% of the U.S. population identified as LGBTQ+ in Gallup's most recent survey. As of 2024, this (likely conservative) estimate suggests that ~31.1 million people identify as LGBTQ+ in the U.S. That is a larger population than the entire state population of Texas!
