Goodbye Nevada heading to Seattle.
Nothing black about this Friday. Snow storm Friday!
Thanks@silberfuchsnyc for the holiday shirt! #tshirt #holiday #naughty #subversive
The last Acai! It's always hard to say goodbye to Brazil! #rio #untilnexttime #tchaubrasil
Dinner break at the beautiful (and cool and progressive)
Look I'm wearing In the Navy. Just thought I throw out a Village People reference from a Trump hating actual ex Village Person. You can't throw away Village People's amazing (gay) history just because this new leader of the band is a bozo.

Peter Mandelson’s lobbying firm behind think tank pushing PFI 2.0.

PFI: Govt guarantees corporate profits.

Previously- Each £1 of PFI investment in infrastructure resulted in £6 repayment.

Cheaper for govt to borrow, can create QE for infrastructure.

If you think that professors exist as repositories of knowledge that students ask for answers, you’re missing the entire point of a college education.

We’re here to teach students how to do research, how to analyze and argue, how to think for themselves — how to find the answers on their own.
Wow. Just wow.

"Students pay premium prices for information that AI now delivers instantly and for free. A business student can ask ChatGPT to explain supply chain optimization or generate market analysis in seconds. The traditional lecture-and-test model faces its Blockbuster moment."
When Knowledge is Free, What are Professors For?
Higher Education Must Stop Competing with AI on Information and Start Teaching What Machines Can’t Do

Johnson: "Grijalva should be working for her constituents right now. I don't know what she's doing. I keep seeing their political stunt videos. She should be in her office. She should be working or in the district for her constituents" (Grijalva is not in fact a Rep. b/c Johnson refuses to seat her)

RFK Jr: "Today the average teenager in this country has 50% of the sperm count, 50% of the testosterone of a 65 year old man. Our girls are hitting puberty 6 years early ... our parents aren't having children."

Newsom: This president appears unhinged… seems listless… he seems, dare I say, in decline—cognitively, and… physically. These are just the rantings of someone who needs an intervention, needs some help, needs to be stabilized.

Hochul: "They promised to extract revenge on their political enemies & apparently any state that has a D gov. Tell me how Florida & Texas could receive these same funds w/o having to go to court? They're playing politics, but more than that, they're playing with people's lives. And that's abhorrent"
