Breaking News: The Texas House voted to create one of the largest taxpayer-funded private-school voucher programs in the nation.

Texas Is Poised to Create a $1 Billion Private School Voucher Program

Students would receive as much as $10,000 for tuition or home-schooling. The Texas House passed the plan Thursday, after a well-financed campaign by President Trump’s allies.

Writing “Iru: The Remarkable Life of Irawati Karve” was as joyful as it was hard. How can one fit a whole life, with all its contradictions, into a few hundred pages? Now, I am looking forward to talking about our book with readers, friends, and scholars in India.

1/3 Der #GenderPayGap und #GenderPensionGap in Deutschland sind alarmierend hoch und lassen Rückschlüsse auf den Stand der Gleichstellung zu. Unternehmen müssen, um gleiches Entgelt für gleichwertige Arbeit zu erreichen, Entgeltsysteme überprüfen und für deutliche Verbesserungen sorgen.

There is a great book, "Red Families v. Blue Families" by Naomi Cahn & June Carbone, which clocked the ideological shift early on. Unsurprisingly, female economic self-determination & bodily autonomy are critical differentiators in how people conceive of what families are supposed to be.

Adam Serwer @adamserwer.bsky.social · Aug 22

The attacks you’re seeing on the Harris and Walz families from the online right are reflective of a different ideological orientation towards family as mere objects that are meant to reflect the greatness of the husband and father, not people with their own lives and emotions.
