It looks gorgeous, the press looks awesome, and I'm fascinated by the topic (I've gotten to spend time in AK over the last few years and wow so breathtaking and so, so interesting)

The nails are slowly being hit into our coffin.

Only his lapdogs remain on the council. Out of 26 council members (not all positions were filled at the time of firing), just four are left —the ones he previously appointed.

When I listen to him lately he sounds like someone who is really enamored of his own reasoning has maybe stopped listening to other people

The organizers have been doing the work for decades and it shows. Incredible to see how many neighborhood folks stopped to cheer—delivery bike guys, grandmas, families. I think people felt really seen & supported & I feel lucky I could be part of it

Was not expecting to tear up so many times during that march but the community solidarity was just amazing 💪✊

Cuts to and closures of university presses are 100% part of the separation (or as @mattseybold.bsky.social has called it "unbundling") of research and teaching in the humanities and the devaluation of both quite frankly--in this case at the expense of the career training admin claims to care about.

"Bucknell has decided to close its highly respected, decades-old UP in June 2026. The stated reason? The press serves scholars, not Bucknell undergrads.

Gahhh this is why conversations about reducing admissions in order to align budgets makes me pull my hair out. It's always a red herring. Invest in teaching FIRST, not last. Too many students wanting to learn is not the problem!!!

New Mexico's economy is a fraction of the size of New York City's.

If they can enact universal childcare — and relieve working families of a crushing cost burden — surely we can too.

It's just a question of political will.

New Mexico will be the first state to make child care free

The program, which is expected to save families $12,000 per child annually, is available to all residents regardless of income.
