Department of Education rescinds Title IX guidance that NIL payments must be proportionate
How Title IX would factor into schools' revenue-sharing decisions has been a lingering question.

Judge rules that Black church in DC, which won a $2.8 million default judgment against the Proud Boys, now gains control over the trademark “Proud Boys.” The far-right group is barred from selling any related merchandise or symbols without the consent of the church. Gift link:

We are deeply concerned about the current state of our country. As civil servants, we are doing everything in our power to resist, even if it costs us our jobs. We are proud to be Americans, but what is happening right now does not reflect the values we, as Americans, stand for!

I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world.
Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO

I don’t know who needs to hear this today, but going to the gym to train is not resistance. Karate is not resistance.
Organize in your community. Take care of people. Do the hard work of making sure people have what they need to survive. Do it through organizations that are already there.

The silence from the apartment upstairs is deafening. There has been no sign of the Hispanic couple that lives there with their children.

To those flabbergasted & shocked by this week, please remember our country won't change until millions of apathetic people feel what you're feeling right now.
It will take TIME. Don't lose yourself in the interim. Find ways to feel safe, feel joy, love a lot.
Build a stoic calm amidst the chaos. 🕊

I saw a truck decal that said "KEEP ON HATING"
No.
I won't.
We won't.
We will keep on LOVING.
Our fearless hearts choose compassion.
Our wise mind knows self-respect.
We, the people, will hold firm.
We, the people, will love our world.
And we will revolve around the light in the darkness.

Today I actually relaxed, which is something I'm not very good at. I tuned out the world and tuned in to myself so I will be stronger tomorrow.

Stay strong. For us, this is more than just a job-it’s a calling. Together, we will stand to protect our parks, environment, and wildlife. Four years… we remain hopeful that the attack on our public lands will be less brutal this time.
