I just emailed my "Silence" essay to the Presidents/Chancellors and Provosts of the 9 Compact universities as well as those from the 4 orgs with which I have been formally affiliated.

The essay can be found here:

Things I didn't have on my 2025 BINGO card...

"My BlueSky username alone making it a realistic possibility that the POTUS considers me a terrorist and may utilize military assets to 'bring me to justice.'"

What fucking planet is? This is truly the darkest timeline. Abed, reroll the dice, please 🙏🏽

@jeremymberg.bsky.social and @gregggonsalves.bsky.social, didn't some really smart people we know talk about "Trump's Gift" recently?

"Chinese universities see changes in the US as 'a gift from Trump' that will help them recruit more and higher-caliber talents"

A friend of mine is selling a primitive home with an orchard on 2.5 acres in Almeria Province in Spain. 150 Olive trees and several almond trees. Public power, water, and 1GB fiber internet are available, but all need to be connected. Solar power could be set up cheaply. Nearby hunting preserve!

The end of FY 2025 is coming, and #OMB appears perfectly content to use us as targets. We are not their chess pieces. We serve our PIs. We are here in our personal capacities. Follow the #NIH.

That can have value. We know that without intention to offset it, hiring managers have strong tendency to hire people with the same demographics as them. But unconscious bias is also applicable to tons of things outside race. If we combined it we could prevent the next 2008 and next George Floyd.

Woke and White Privilege have been in the liberal zeitgeist for quite a while now. They're not Faux News rebranding. But regardless of what you call them, here's the real answer to the question you're asking, at least from the perspective of poor and working class white folks.

Go back and look at statements, policies, and platforms of democratic candidates and the party as a whole for the last couple of election cycles... Then you come back and tell me...

And woke ISN'T bad. Most of it IS something we should aspire to. But we're shitty salesmen.
