Itās 2:17 PM. Has Trump announced heās dead yet?
What about TikTok videos? Can I use those as my main source of information about complex issues?
And non-Palestinians doing it with a Palestinian flag in their display name should stop pretending they are concerned with Palestine when actually they are smearing the movement and Palestinians by associating them with your trash can antisemitism
āA tariff would hurt consumers most of all, as they would feel the inflationary effect ... directly when paying for prescriptions at the pharmacy and indirectly through higher insurance premiums.āā apnews.com/article/trum...
Whatās the worst that could happen? Impossible to rank the possibilities
Responding to this thread by making fun of me for being Jewish or suggesting that I donāt care about people from other religious identities isnāt pro-Palestine or a smart gotcha itās just antisemitism aimed at someone who is very on record about, for example, the major problem of Islamophobia
Microplastics in the brain could affect how it functions. A new study found high amounts could trigger Alzheimerās-like symptoms in mice with a genetic predisposition to the disease.

(replying) Hey man your post should've been different. You should've used a different word or possibly expressed a totally different idea entirely. Preferably the one I would've used
It wasnāt very good
Rather than reproaching Israel for human rights violations in the West Bank and Gaza Strip, the Trump administration is taking aim at its critics. Rubio just expanded sanctions on the judges & prosecutors of the International Criminal Court for probing alleged Israeli and US crimes. wapo.st/4nahJCH

Today's ISM survey commentary is fun: "Tariffs continue to wreak havoc" "There is absolutely no activity in the transportation equipment industry. This is 100 percent attributable to current tariff policy. "We are also in stagflation: Prices are up due to material tariffs, but volume is way off.ā

āSo dumb and so uncaringā and so on sums up the discourse well
Thatās not what endowments are for. If youāre gonna pitch an idea, become aware of the basic facts first.
I have a feeling immigrants arenāt whatās stopping Ely from being gainfully employed

I actually just made up that anecdote. I donāt know this history at all and any accuracies were accidental. Anyway this is how I view antisemitism in the US today. Itās being tolerated at a level that weāll later look back at, or future generations will, and it will make no sense to them.
For example, seems like sexual harassment was something a person could get away with back in the day. Probably just viewed as harmless macho man behavior. But I guess as harms became clear and feminism made progress this norm changed. Iām not complaining. Progress is good.
Back before the backlash against social justice in the US a few years ago, when wokeness was more dominant, I remember people being pushed to do was learn about what other people have been and/or are going through. Sometimes injustice isnāt obvious and you need to learn to recognize new forms.
Such a bizarre accusation. One thing I will say though is there is a dearth of actual Palestinian voices in this discourse. I donāt know why this is. I canāt even really tell what the author is getting at. Maybe some general reference to oppression, not actually anything specific.
I think this is one reason people who are fanatical about this issue also donāt read about it or try to learn anything about it. Theyāve taken a strong position, let lots of people know about it, and now they canāt back down because that would be too embarrassing.

Check your privilege, morons.
One thing Iāll say about this is in the days and weeks after 10/7, a small theme on left twitter was rationalizing the attack by saying something to the effect of, āIf native Americans did this today in my community, and they came for me, I would allow it. I would let them kill me.ā
Some of these departments should be closed or at least some of their āscholarsā should be dismissed for doing such consistently terrible work. If all youāre going to do is use your authority to spread lies, you have no business in the academy.
Something has gone horribly wrong in your social justice movement if people are allowed to sell antisemitic writings at events
āThe media doesnāt seem to careā because thereās no good evidence that we should actually be concerned. Just a bunch of conspiracy theories. But like the Epstein āclient listā and Trump supposedly being on it, simply being hysterical online about it doesnāt make it real or important.
Reading about you and your friends again www.degruyterbrill.com/document/doi...
Trumpās mysterious disappearance from public raises new questions about Joe Bidenās advanced age
Yes. Also Epstein client list, LLMs cause ācognitive declineā, etc. Get with the program.
Guy on the right is the current head of NIH. The reaction this proposal got was very negative and it hurt his ego so much he pledged to do what heās doing right now!
Anyway this is a great article, assuming youāre actually curious about Israel. Otherwise itās just something for you and your antisemitic friends to laugh at and clap like seals to.
Really just beyond the pale. Gays terrorizing gays. In this country.
In my experience conversations about this stuff almost never happen in good faith. Itās really shocking sometimes. Although when my mom visited and we talked she actually listened. This conflict has taught me a lot about the people around me and who my friends really are.
This is just so baffling to me. People from one marginalized group being cruel towards people from another marginalized group. But people do it.
Iām not LGBTQ+ but yeah. www.timesofisrael.com/after-facing...
Not a real scholarly association anymore innit. Many of their members already probably considered themselves to be activists before the doors were open more widely though. Oh well. Academics get up to shit like this and wonder why far right rumor mongering about the academy gains traction.
Funny. We keep seeing that ā86%ā voted in favor of the resolution. But only 129/500=0.258 about a quarter of them actually got to vote. Still impressed?
I can see why they didnāt do it. It probably wouldāve been a shit show.
Imagine that www.timesofisrael.com/liveblog_ent...
Great work, guys. Now pass a resolution praising Hamas for being a brave liberation movement.
You can just say anything you want now. Soon theyāll be blaming Israelis for the Russian revolution and both world wars.

August 28th article, so this headline actually means this month www.telegraph.co.uk/us/news/2025...
Just when you thought this idea couldnāt get any dumber
Donāt let cryptocurrencies become systemically important
This is actually logically consistent. When inflation was high, that meant the price level was rising faster than usual. The growth rate of the price level has slowed down, but it has not gone negative, which means that when prices went up, they didnāt go down but rather started growing more slowly.
Donāt forget the part where he took money from the Russian government to regurgitate their talking points on his show
Lots of reasons for this including disinformation www.wsj.com/economy/wsj-...
People donāt complain enough about inequality in this country. Their wealth alone will make it impossible to get away from the Trump family for generations to come if nothing is done.
This is really bad btw www.wsj.com/finance/curr...
Our new research finds that people are willing to cheat if it benefits their group ā even when they gain nothing themselves. "the risk of dishonesty in organizations is not limited to selfish acts...employees might bend rules to benefit their team or in-group members." www.nhh.no/en/nhh-bulle...
Donāt laugh. You think AIPAC runs America. dlvr.it
I wonder what next summer will be like
RIP
Another way to reframe this is: "319,000 breadwinners lost their jobs between February and July...." "319,000 taxpayers lost their jobs between February and July..." "319,000 highly educated individuals lost their jobs between February and July..."
Everyone is so excited about how touchy feely these people are because when it comes to policy, whew
Like Mamdani at some point heāll have to moderate his views if he does actually get closer to power
Retard alert
can an expert explain? yeah man, you made a fake picture and now youāre doing physiognomy on it
Universities already do all of this stuff. So if the public thinks these are new suggestions, the problem is not with the universities. Itās with the public. Which does not understand them. The burden should be on the public to be informed. Itās part of being a citizen. And an adult.
Crazy that this dude is at Toronto and is an economics professor and some kind of expert on innovation and yet
Lol
I actually donāt understand why heās famous or why he gets so much work
Because thatās lame as hell if true
So apparently whenever you start a new āvirtual environmentā with python you have to reinstall all the libraries you might want to use even though youāre already using them on another project? Am I getting this right?
People who wanna sidestep the role their insane activism had, however small, in bringing things to this point should bring up the fundamental problem of causal inference instead of saying that thereās no difference between Joe/Kamala and republicans or whatever stupid thing theyāre saying now.
Orange you glad you didnāt vote for genocide Joe
love it
Itās interesting that people didnāt shit themselves about āAIā after Siri came out but they did do that for ChatGPT
Easy to forget given everything thatās happening in the world today. So if you simply donāt know better, maybe this isnāt the discourse for you.
Theyāre actually bad btw
Fascinating conversation with a very nice public defender about the four types of private criminal defense practice that pay well in the US: white-collar, DUIs, cops, and child porn.
School counselors' recommendation letters for minority students are shorter and emphasize character over achievement.
Trump should give himself the award
Canāt wait to find out that he shouldāve been diagnosed with dementia in like 2013
Lol this dudeās mind is gone
It does kind of suck here sometimes but not like twitter does, and Iām not sure what āblueskyismā is supposed to mean regardless
Tapping the sign. Offensive on so many levels, including sheer intellectual laziness. isca.indiana.edu/publication-...
Lol ādebate is overā
oh hey it's a cartoon that sadly did not become immediately outdated on friday www.dailykos.com/stories/2025...
On paper, Indonesiaās economy is flourishing. But popular protests that have swept the streets of Jakarta and other large cities tell a different story and a growing number of economists are also asking questions.
Gonna keep reposting this @timdickinson.bsky.social / me item: www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...
This isnāt a serious question. Bye now.
Lol Iām sorry I was mean to the knuckle dragging racists
PSA: If there is an academic you hate, toady is a great time to inquire how much of their summer research and writing plans they've accomplished.
Thereās probably truth to this though. Iāve only ever known one person who went down that road and Iām convinced one of the main reasons he did it is because it was the first time in his life he hadnāt been treated like a worthless loser. Not suggesting he wasnāt such a person. He was. Just saying.
I want to favorite this but this app does not appear to have that feature
how do i explain to my kids two women being married?? how explain sun go away at night but come back next day? how explain magic rectangle show people talk??? HOW
One of those stories with suspiciously specific details. Did she go out on a date with Richard Spencer or something?
