Good article. Would like to just point out: the hard men of Gondor don’t actually end up protecting the Shire, a soft little hobbit does. Also also: JRRT’s dwarves are a philosemitic counterpart to the Nazi’s view of dwarves from Wagner’s Ring cycle.

So, an OU student a shitty reaction paper in a psych course, got failed by a grad student TA for not following directions and threatened legal action, while also getting her uni TPUSA chapter to post the essay. Her mother is on X saying trans people must not be allowed to be professors.

This is…

I'll say it again -- I'm on my firm's AI committee: every canned demo has had brutal, malpractice-level errors, and every live trial has required more time and care to vet the output than to just do it, like working with an unteachably incompetent associate you'd need to sit down for a Hard Talk.

There's a lot of white people who think they are owed a veto over PoC living near them or existing in the same spaces or at all and instead of brutally suppressing them we just smile and let them constitute one of the largest voting blocs

'Nobody voted for this!' my dude, every single person that voluntarily moved to London absolutely did. The commentariat simply cannot conceive of the rightness of millions of human beings organically making decisions by themselves; all decisions must be top-down diktats from the political class.
However, these examples don’t read across to London, because New York and Buenos Aires were, during their ethnic evolutions, fundamentally immigrant cities. There was not so much a replacement as an invited influx, deliberately willed by the government of the day. London, then, really is unique in peacetime. No one voted for the change we’ve seen, no one consciously willed it, yet it has happened.

OU has put the professor here on administrative leave:
The University of Oklahoma takes seriously concerns involving First Amendment rights, certainly including religious freedoms. Upon receiving notice from the student on the grading of an assignment, the University immediately began a full review of the situation and has acted swiftly to address the matter. First, the college acted immediately to address the academic issue raised by the student. College leaders contacted her on the day her letter was received and have maintained regular communication throughout the process. As previously stated, a formal grade appeals process was conducted. The process resulted in steps to ensure no academic harm to the student from the graded assignments. Second, the student reported filing a claim of illegal discrimination based on religious beliefs to the appropriate university office. OU has a clear process for reviewing such claims and it has been activated. The graduate student instructor has been placed on administrative leave pending the finalization of this process. To ensure fairness in the process, a full-time professor is serving as the course instructor for the remainder of the semester. OU remains firmly committed to fairness, respect and protecting every student's right to express sincerely held religious beliefs. The UNIVERSITY of OKLAHOMA

🧵 What happens when survival pushes humans to the unthinkable? In 1609–1610, Jamestown colonists faced famine so severe they turned to cannibalism. Here’s the true story.

My favorite part of this is her contacting the fucking governor first, four hours after getting her essay feedback
Fulnecky emailed Republican Gov. Kevin Stitt, OU's president, the dean of her college, members of the media and Walters' conservative anti-teachers' union group fewer than four hours after her instructor justified Fulnecky's grade. Four days later, Fulnecky went through the university's internal process to file a formal discrimination complaint and an academic appeal.

This is explicitly confirming the allegation: that he's ordering the killings for their own sake. The logical implication of which is hit them again if there are any survivors, which is both exactly what the Post reported and a cold-blooded textbook war crime.

a lot of words, none of them denying that Hegseth gave an order to kill helpless people who were stranded at sea after he blew up their boats
As usual, the fake news is delivering more fabricated, inflammatory, and derogatory reporting to discredit our incredible warriors fighting to protect the homeland. As we’ve said from the beginning, and in every statement, these highly effective strikes are specifically intended to be “lethal, kinetic strikes.” The declared intent is to stop lethal drugs, destroy narco-boats, and kill the narco-terrorists who are poisoning the American people. Every trafficker we kill is affiliated with a Designated Terrorist Organization. The Biden administration preferred the kid gloves approach, allowing millions of people — including dangerous cartels and unvetted Afghans — to flood our communities with drugs and violence. The Trump administration has sealed the border and gone on offense against narco-terrorists. Biden coddled terrorists, we kill them. Our current operations in the Caribbean are lawful under both U.S. and international law, with all actions in compliance with the law of armed conflict—and approved by the best military and civilian lawyers, up and down the chain of command. Our warriors in SOUTHCOM put their lives on the line every day to protect the Homeland from narco-terrorists — and I will ALWAYS have their back.

Just saw someone claim that authors who want to be paid for their work are "class traitors" because we "only let the wealthy" read our books, and I think I need to go into the woods to scream into the night for a bit.

Using the belief that creators are the "petite bourgeoisie" to justify pirating books/stealing art is EXACTLY what makes it so hard for anyone who isn't rich to pursue their creative dreams
