One professor on the watchlist who 404 Media is granting anonymity for his safety said once he was added to the list, he started receiving anonymous letters in his campus mailbox.
''You're everything wrong with colleges,'
'watch your step, we're watching you' kind of stuff," he said, "One anonymous DM on Twitter had a picture of my house and driveway, which was chilling." His president and provost also received emails attempting to discredit him with "all the allegedly communist and subversive stuff I was up to," he said. "It was all certainly concerning, but compared to colleagues who are people of color and/or women, I feel like the volume was smaller for me. But it was certainly not a great feeling to experience that stuff. That watchlist fucked up careers and ruined lives."

I still think this is one of the most gutting notes I’ve ever read.

Notecard by a homeless person expressing what object was most devastating to lose: Dentures were thrown away and coping isn’t something I can do. It’s made me feel ugly, unworthy, can’t go get a job with no teeth. So how can get off the streets until another pair can be made?

Going through some of the surgeon general nominee's old tweets and there is the usual antivax light stuff, SEED OILS will kill you fast, and THINK ABOUT YOUR MITOCHONDRIA! But this is just stupid.

Tweet from Casey means a smiling white woman:

Glucose as a molecule has caused more destruction of the human mind and body than any other substance in human history.
