VA Secretary Collins just told RM @repmarktakano.bsky.social that VA doesn't have enough clinical employees. Then why are there more postings on USA jobs right now for ICE & CBP than there are for VA doctors & nurses? Why did VA just wipe almost 30,000 vacant VHA positions off its books?

I saw this video on Dust a week or so ago, and then I noticed people talking about the book, although it came out last year. Is this the best marketing ever?

My dog never learned any words this way, so I suppose he was eavesdropping on me for some other reason

This is the aftermath of an ICE kidnapping a few blocks from my home in St. Paul—an hour ago. A quiet street full of broken glass and at least three wrecked cars. The target of the kidnapping was taken away by ambulance. He was on a stretcher and covered by a sheet, though a cop said he was alive.

Pretty much everything I have to say about our deranged modern situation is most concentrated in Dead Astronauts, although also running through all my work.

Occurred to me that it might be useful for me, a person who teaches in a Digital Humanities program, to say that what happened to LCS is wrong and shameful and infuriating.

Disintermediate wherever possible. Gen AI will kill/has killed the GUI world of content-audience relationship. Queries are the “next frontier”. Have to resist chasing demonetization.

Literally the aristocrats
I went to the same dentist for years in my 20s and 30s. I left because he made disparaging comments about women, and I called him on it, told him he was being “sexist.” I remember his assistants freezing as I said the word.

Funny story! He’s in the Epstein files!

I am not even kidding but I've been searching for the original MS of a story with "gaslight" in the title and file explorer says there never was one.

"The authority the political branches possess over immigration does not include the power to seize liberty first and justify confinement later. Due process is not a courtesy extended at the government's convenience. Due process is the condition that makes custody lawful in the first place.”
Another memorable ruling out of West Virginia, where Judge Goodwin — a Clinton appointee — excoriates the treatment of ICE detainees.

"This is not what civil enforcement looks like in a humane system of government under law."

Rep. Delia Ramirez to DHS officials: "I have as much respect for you as I do for the last white men who put on masks to terrorize communities of color. I have no respect for the inheritors of the Klanhood and the slave patrol. Those activities were criminal and so are yours."

I just gave a global health talk at Johns Hopkins, and one of their students came up afterward to introduce herself. She had taken my global health class at Emory, and she said that's what made her go into the field.
