So pretty!
I have bruised hands. Required prednisone use.
I want a cat like this one day. Gotta tweak the cat distribution system.
It’s really hard to explain in intro PoliSci as there are no real Burkean conservatives today.
I can’t get the vax as it is a live virus.
I just assume they're trying as hard as I am, and that their lives are already difficult enough and I don't want to make them more difficult. What makes you want other people to feel unnecessary pain? johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/dear-repub...
Horrific. mRNA vaccines have saved millions of lives and could save millions more. “I don’t think I’ve seen a more dangerous decision in public health in my 50 years in the business,” said Mike Osterholm, a UMN expert on infectious diseases & pandemic preparations. www.huffpost.com/entry/rfk-va...
I blame every single person who voted for him.
Good luck!
Every six months for me. Total 12-14.
Same
Is this before or after they put a nuclear reactor on the moon?
Ukrainian soldier Taras Stoliar played bandura alongside Bono, while Sean Penn filmed the moment.
Feel safer in NYC than I do around here at night.
This Tiafoe Shelton match is something! #washingtontennis.
Would settle for no AI use.
Did you cover both Gaza and Ukraine when you taught the class?
Going after vaccines also terrifying. Anything he does NOT terrifying?
Not really an overstatement to say that the test of a free society is whether or not comedians can make fun of the country's leader on TV without repurcussions.
Will be interested to see how Jon Stewart responds to Colbert firing. Bet he rips into their common boss. Dictators getting corporations to self censor.
What a beauty!
Gonna be wild show tonight.
This sucks.
Can’t wait to say Senator Cooper.
Hops in Greensboro.
Why call a concentration camp a "concentration camp"
The academic’s mid-summer crisis is a mid-life crisis in miniature: You realize summer is half gone, & not only that: you see that the longest & least burdened days came early, & they are well past. You compare all you thought you’d do against the days remaining & grieve for what never will be
Calvin and Hobbes? Really?
Now that the sociopaths who built it are selling merch about alligator Alcaraz I will no longer use that name for the concentration camp.
Anyone still quibbling that this isn't fascism?
Today Americans across the country will visit hospitals and nursing homes — not knowing many of them could close because of the cuts in the Senate Republican bill. Why? So the tech titans and ultra wealthy can pay less in taxes. Good luck explaining that to the American people.
Been there. Done that. Didn’t get the t shirt.
Can’t imagine how we would have cared for my dad without Medicaid Nursing home for 6 years.
Don’t be quoting dookies, Kevin.
Use it in my 105. Guess I am going to have to drop the issue of Iranian nukes?
Why no appeal to Iranian people?
Yes!
Valuable summary of anti-fascist analysis from @rosansmits.bsky.social decorrespondent.nl/16177/this-i...
Why can’t I see a media link?
I’m afraid students are taking us there anyway. Hugely frustrated with all the cheating.
Musk should be asked about this in every interview he does now and forever. To ignore it is a dereliction of duty. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/30/o...
Literally trillion dollar bills sitting on the sidewalk and we're refusing to pick them up
Could someone tell the CDC that the average Joe getting a vax actually protects the vulnerable ? #cdc #vaccines
And makes the vulnerable more vulnerable
Appalling. Puts those of us who are immuno compromised at higher risk. But they have never been pro life.
Just read this sentence. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/17/o...
Every time I look up and see the “suggestions” it throws me off.
In an effort to avoid accusations of cheating, some students are recording their own screens for hours at a time or using keystroke loggers.
I certainly am thankful that 16years ago someone was an organ donor. Just lost a HS friend to liver disease who never drank.
Which makes it even more dangerous for those of us who are vulnerable.
How many tax dollars wasted on this?
Was the best thing on the internet. Hope he is ok
“If you cannot write well, you cannot think well; if you cannot think well, others will do your thinking for you” —Oscar Wilde
we have a secretary of -transportation making it more dangerous to travel -education making kids stupider -defense making us more vulnerable to attacks -homeland security making us feel less secure than ever -health and human services trying to spread illness everything’s fine.
I celebrate!
Doesn’t work for the online classes I teach. Battling AI big time.
The Grayson Allen or Christian Laettner of politics.
I don't think it's fully appreciated just how much Trumpism is a celebration of ignorance. Trump not only never learns but proactively avoids it. It's a braindead movement from the top down.
Zero grades submitted.
There is no cure for OLD. Learned my lesson trying to shoot hoops with neighbor kid. Embarrassing. On my goal even.

Would there be anyone worse than Miller?
Happy 80th anniversary of Hitler killing himself in his bunker to all who celebrate, which, as I now understand it, is not everybody
So heartbreaking to hear an international student say they are no longer interested in staying in the US.
Tillis had death threats.
Kamala Harris: “he’s a fascist” Gen. Milley: “he’s a fascist” John Kelly: “he’s a fascist” Historians of fascism: “he’s a fascist” The NY/DC political media: “how did we all fail to see that Donald Trump was a fascist?”
Plus comprehensive vaccines.
Rephrase please. WE are NOT on Russia’s side. Only POTUS.
Seriously? You know anything about our students who had visas revoked?
Did you see our student made cover of local paper last week? International student.
But most will not give you but 30 days. So we are all screwed.
!!!!!!!!
Congrats, Trumpers, in a few weeks you actually got the horrible economy you pretended we had under President Biden.
We have a winner!
And lives. ...don’t forget how many people he killed in pandemic.
Who's ready to lose another boatload of money this week because Trump is a dipshit who knows nothing about trade, economics, and history?
This is really unfair to everyone who just voted for him for the racism.
Circuit breakers before or after noon Monday? What’s the over/under? Take up gambling since 401k going...#tariffs
Have you considered the possibility that half your 401K is too steep a price to keep that trans person off the soccer team?
Maybe occupy the streets.
Independence not interdependence.
At post office downtown?
Take the W.
Yeah. Got a household emergency and had to withdraw from 401k TODAY.
If you’re interested in the near history of the Ukraine war, I recommend this podcast series, Escalation, by the folks at Lawfare, narrated by Tyler McBrien and Anastasiia Lapatina. @lapatina.bsky.social Very well done folks! podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/e...
But did you ever think the whole GOP would be Helms like?
And. I am good with that.
Was the best thing on the internet. Not even close. Hope he is ok.
But there is operational planning as we speak.
Anyone know what has happened to giant military cats? It’s gone. Best thing on the internet. #cats
She would go anywhere other than Chapel Hill?
Tillis caved to death threats.
What did students get in NIL?
I live in a small town. Wish there was a way to vent.
EVERYBODY should watch this — in full youtu.be/vK6fALsenmw?...
YES! Withers would not have so ready to block out if Lubin had made the first. But both played their hearts out!
