Oops

Do any of the professors or journalists or teachers also get their jobs back or nah

NPR Morning Edition: "this is, at the very least, controversial advice"

This is why we're $#&@ed. It is malpractice those with a public microphone to call it anything except "insane and dangerous" advice

To me, that is a core part of the anti-trans-rights movement, they are afraid that if people realize that things we take for granted as facts of nature are really just social constructs, then we might start questioning all the other social constructs, like money, value, political power, etc.

Yeah, maybe "took an unexpected turn" is more what I meant (but I should know better than to be surprised these days)

That escalated quickly

Listen, when I shuffle loose this mortal coil, all I ask is that the pyrotechnics be 1) IATSE Local 2 and 2) tasteful.

Me when I read this stuff

Damn, I hate when Past Me is right

Also, &#$@ you Google AI, that is not accurate at all

@colbertlateshow.bsky.social might as well run for president now; whether he breaks or continues the #northwesternUniversity alum losing streak would be equally notable

but yes conservatives who want to spend ten years in grad school to teach a 5:5 load for $45K a year and yes you do have to pay for parking should have the same opportunities as liberals to do so, and largely do.

This is political violence

at Back To School Night (nonUSians: parents meet teachers and learn about the curriculum) I learned that one of the social studies themes is "oppression" (woo!); the units are:

The fact that Matthew Dowd lost his job for pointing out Charlie Kirk’s hate speech, while Brian Kilmeade openly suggests we should euthanize the homeless and there is zero outrage, shows exactly what is terribly wrong with today’s political mainstream media.

Let’s not elevate a more or less coarse form of entertainment into a sine qua non of honest, open thought or of mutual respect; the performance of debate overlaps only occasionally and by accident with these, and more often — particularly where people’s rights are at issue — indicates their absence.

wow hard to believe that professors and teachers — the people Kirk made a literal career out of *putting on a watchlist* — don’t have nice things to say about him

omg this hits so many of my sicko interests

"Charlie Kirk gave me the courage to be more transphobic" is a wild thing to put in a both-sides hagiography

McCain didn't start this, but I do still blame him for legitimizing it on such a huge stage (for what appeared to be cynical electoral strategy), where it broke contain

The only thing I'll say about it is I'll remember most when professors began to be put on lists, and how our jobs have been harder ever since
