The administration is extorting universities for billions of dollars and attempting to destroy free speech, academic freedom, and independent thought but the Atlantic talked to a few professors at elite universities who think the problem is that some students need a little extra time on exams

i'm actually struck by how pete hegseth isn't just a cowardly man but a capital-c Coward. a guy who gets off on abusing and hurting people he thinks are weaker than him and then tries to run and hide when there might be consequences

james cameron every couple of years for some reason:

His brand is war crimes!!

One way of "interpreting" the situation is to determine who's more likely to have given an order in clear violation of US and int'l law: the decorated admiral who's spent a lifetime working within those laws or the embarrassing bloodthirsty child who's spent 10 months doing Call of Duty cosplay?

The entirety of Mad Men is now streaming on HBO, in case you want to revisit a time when tv was good

The 10 year old playing video games in the other room: "Sean, I trust you've made a casserole, right?"

wife got a timer for all of our christmas lights so obviously thinking of this

I don't even know what I'd do with this. Probably just phone in whatever they want while I spend the rest of my time looking for another job, or even another profession

Hegseth will never resign because 1) he knows Trump only respects people who do terrible things and never apologize; 2) his best chance of avoiding prosecution is staying at the top of DoD; and 3) he is an immoral tick

Texas Tech faculty were told today that they "are barred from promoting concepts related to race or sex-based prejudice." www.dailytoreador.com/news/tech-sy...

Not the point at all—not at all!—but it drives me nuts that there are multiple grammar mistakes in just the first sentence, and also that in general this is a mess

I think I would be reasonably content with a 25% annual salary raise, which would be equivalent to what Lane Kiffin will make before lunch on any given day

Lane Kiffin's LSU contract will pay him the equivalent of my Louisiana public university annual salary every two days

I named my fists Mike and Johnson because I don't really know anything about that and I'll have to look into it

If your woke professors refuse to celebrate CYBER MONDAY please report them immediately to university administrators and your local TPUSA chapter for thoughtcrime violations

went to college and they tried to “cancel” me because I “can’t read”

the primary thing that TPUSA provides to young conservatives is a blueprint for weaponizing the abject cowardice of university administrators against individual teachers and instructors, and university admins should take a long look in the mirror and think about what that says about them

I am being one hundred percent sincere when I say that I would be delighted to see a student quote the Bible in an essay about literally anything because it would demonstrate attention to intertextuality that is difficult to teach and virtually absent in student writing today

After a lot of prayer [and $90 million]

Is it too soon to be thinking about spring semester planning? Consider this competitively priced banger about guns and capitalism and consumerism and culture and politics in the United States since 1945 a.co/d/dWaAHKA

The important thing to keep in mind about the inevitable Lane Kiffin announcement is that it is deeply embarrassing that LSU sits at the bottom of the SEC academically and yet will commit to paying a football couch more than any other school in the country

we live in hell

Weird how hoarding wealth or criminalizing poverty and homelessness or denying women access to basic healthcare aren't among the criteria for assessing a city's sinfulness

Bong Joon Ho hit me up for the squad you legend deadline.com/2025/11/bong...

Look what woke did to Texas A&M, smh

Lol Amazon is like what if we make these NBA hall of famers dress like bay area VC douchebags

I will subscribe to whatever streaming service gives me a video feed that's nothing but angry white drunk Eagles fans

when you’re trying to evade capture after WWII ends:

Sure feels like this will have to come to a head soon, whether it's this or the boat strikes or dozens of other criminal acts, where this administration will simply say that none of it matters because there is no rule of law beyond what the White House says. I guess in some ways we're already there

Jalen Hurts is not very good

“You can safely assume you've created God in your own image when it turns out that God hates all the same people you do.” --Anne Lamott

Mr. Handsome

She is dead because of the president's fascist political stunt.

OK, who narced?

The guy shot two random people with a gun, I don't think you can say he wasn't assimilating into our culture

Epistemological collapse has *always* been the goal

RIP Martin Luther, you would have loved Papal Audience Black Friday deals.

Hasn't even had an ounce of turkey yet

I don’t have a new book to promote, but four of my former students have their first books coming out this academic year and, people, you are going to hear about them.

Was not expecting this blatant xenophobia on my tv first thing in the morning...

Lainey Wilson looks like the fourth amigo

Kant's moral philosophy

Lemme introduce you to the most important thing you'll ever eat

No. It's donors. It's still obscene but it's not state money. What it does do, though, is reflect a higher ed environment in which university admins will ask donors for $54 million to pay off a coach but they'll never ask those same donors to fund the English or history or sociology departments

Never forget?
