People complaining abt the "No Kings" protests being 'useless' and 'performative' should pay attention to what is happening in Russia right now. No access to Telegram, cracking down on VPNs, and many Russians aren't protesting or making a peep. Resignation is the death knell for an active society.
amazinggg i hope ur break is wonderfully restful!
thank u so much!! i hope all is well w u too :))
A book cover with a poster at center showing a woman in a purple skirt, orange top, and black boots waving to a distant crowd, opposite a taller looming woman in white. At bottom is the book title, Circulating Subjects, in black and at top is the author's name, Philippa Hetherington, in orange type.
An incredible cover has landed for an incredible book - Philippa Hetherington's "Circulating Subjects: Sex Work and Migration in Russia, 1885–1935."

Teen Vogue rising after the 2016 election and dying after the 2024 election doesn't even feel like a metaphor as much as a microcosm of what is happening all over places that were once strong areas of resistance.
Teen Vogue changed my life and their politics team was doing incredible journalism comparable to very little other publications. I can't say I'm not disappointed with this decision. Sending y'all love❤️
Food insecurity is ALWAYS a political choice. Famine is ALWAYS manmade. People go hungry because of other people’s decisions. We have more than enough food for everyone, and enormous amounts of it are wasted—literally thrown in the garbage—on purpose.
it’s my first day of graduate school! ⭐️ i could literally jump for joy !!
Abortion bans making pregnancy more dangerous, shaming women for using tylenol, making the world more dangerous for babies: this is all pronatalist because pronatalism is about recreating mandatory childbearing, not making childbearing easier.

Eliminating academic programs does not eliminate the need for the expertise those programs produce. Instead those same knowledges and skills will now be the responsibility of increasingly overburdened and underprepared instructors across the institution.
IU's Slavic, Eastern European, and Central Asian programs were among the best in the world, a gem of American academia that nurtured numerous giants, including Stephen Cohen. Now almost all of them are abolished, including PhD programs. What an unmitigated disaster.
At a ceremony in New York City, Boston’s Museum of Fine Arts returned two works of art that were stolen from present-day Nigeria more than a century ago. They were donated to the MFA in 2013 and 2018.
