I actually had never experienced Thanksgiving. All I know about it comes from online facts and images. I’m torn about whether I want to participate. I’ve always hated all the family gatherings and holidays in Korea. How would I feel about participating in one of these foreign traditions? 🤔🤔🫤🫤😓

Every year, tens of thousands of children are taken from their families because their parents can't afford decent housing. Most child welfare agencies do virtually nothing to help them even as the affordable housing crisis worsens. www.thenation.com/article/soci...
“Nobody Blames the Landlord. They Just Take Away the Kids.”
All too often, when parents can’t afford safe housing, the solution child welfare services offer is putting their children in foster care.

Anyone who’s ever used emergency contraception or gains peace of mind by even having it on hand owes Dr Camp a debt of gratitude. What a force.

(Also, I just learned one reason the FDA rejected it at first was that they said the name Plan B was too glib!)

Great obit—no paywall.

Reading this remarkable letter offers more evidence that the Trump administration and its allies are far more interested in taking down elite universities than in supporting higher ed, even in the areas they claim to care about, such as "viewpoint diversity," or even helping UVA enforce the law.
Former UVA president Jim Ryan, who resigned over the summer due to pressure from the Trump Administration, just shared this 12-page letter with the Faculty Senate, detailing his experience with the Board of Visitors and DOJ.

It's a surreal--and troubling--read.
