Can I buy shares of my own debt? Can I be both the investor and the investment 😭

Can’t possibly go wrong

“high-performing portions of the government’s portfolio of student debt”

We're getting a wave of articles that are like, "gee willikers it sure seems like the people who complained about 'cancel culture' for years really like canceling people."

Yes! This was extremely obvious at the time and a lot of us pointed it out!

People think they’re taking down a rich intellectual sinecure but they’re mostly terrorizing committed public servants who make $58,000 a year after 15 years of experience at a school that has to budget creatively so students can access textbooks.

Hey can anyone find one single example of this

Chris Rufo did this and was platformed as a legitimate authority on universities by the Chronicle of Higher Education.

Remarkably, by the rules of the language game around campus politics, not having been in any way connected to a college since you last puked in a dorm common room 30 years ago, actually qualifies you as a keen critic of higher ed.

Brian Kilmeade wants to euthanize the homeless.

Gavin newsom wants to clear their encampments.

Aesthetics 👏 matter 👏 in HOW you disappear the homeless. #voteblue

Loved this conversation, thanks for sharing what goes on under the hood!

It was so lovely to chat with @llassabe.bsky.social! University presses are creative, resilient, mission-driven, and just one of my favorite things to talk about.

Excited to hear Kent State University Press’s director, @tottencs.bsky.social, on the American Campus Podcast, where she talks with @llassabe.bsky.social about the meaning and value of university-press publishing.

So 90% of my followers appear to be anti-MAGA, anti-GOP, blue no matter who, “antifa” bots lmao
