Speaking out: mold in the libraries - PSC CUNY
Mold problems have been a concern for PSC health and safety activists for many years. The dilapidated conditions at CUNY campuses – a result of systematic
psc-cuny.org
I work as support staff in CCNY and yes the mold issues have been increasing. Being in cataloging, it means I am one of three who has to remove the items from ALMA. (usually I am given a list of what was found and deemed too damaged from Circ so I don't come in contact with the majority)

‘Nickname’ is not ‘nick’ + ‘name.’
It was originally ‘ekename.’
‘Eke’ was the Middle English word for “also” or “in addition.”
Since ‘ekename’ began with a vowel, people used ‘an’ before it.
Over time, 'an ekename' became 'a nickname.'

My question is, when Trump does stuff like this, which he does constantly, why are his advisors always to blame - going all the way back to 2017. There has been a revolving door of advisors, but the common denominator is Trump. When is he held accountable by his own supporters?

If, according to Trump, the government doesn’t have the tariff money available to refund all of it if he loses the lawsuit before SCOTUS, how can he be talking about giving away trillions in $2,000 checks?

One of the reasons most of Trump’s tariff deals went south is because he thought he was going to get the entire world to exclusively negotiate with only him and his rich friends at Mar-a-Lago, but most countries said… no. Where’s the money, Donny?
