“From his personal choices to political ones, he was a steady and relentless force for good,” the singer Joan Baez, a friend and admirer, said in an interview. “He never veered from the path of nonviolence.” www.nytimes.com/2026/03/09/b...
The last nuclear arms control treaty between the U.S. and Russia expired on Thursday, leaving both superpowers with no limits on the size or structure of their arsenals. It expires at the same moment that Beijing, Moscow and shaken American allies are seeking new warheads.
HE IS THE FUTURE OF THE WARRIORS! WARRIOR 4 LIFE!
⌛️The Doomsday clock is 85 seconds to midnight. Nuclear risks are rising due to arms control faltering, nuclear arms expansion, and dangerous rhetoric.
But as @melissaparke01.bsky.social puts it, the Clock is a warning, and humanity can still change course.

(Just a few 70’s histories that spring to mind.)
I've now been allowed and asked to share more details about what's going down at the University of Oregon, which involves imminent announcement of firings, among others, of tenure-track and tenured faculty. Given the units impacted (see below), please share this with your professional networks in related disciplines and start getting ready to put pressure (or begin putting pressure already) on the University of Oregon upper admin to abandon this alleged plan before they finalize it. It appears that, with no prior consultations, the departments of Religion and Classics (two separate units), and the programs in Russian, East European, and Eurasian Studies, German & Scandinavian, Judaic Studies, Arabic Studies, and Holocaust Studies (the latter five all parts of a previously-consolidated mega unit called the Schnitzer School of Global Studies and Languages) are facing imminent announcement of elimination (expected the week of Sept 7), with layoffs of pre-tenure, tenured, and career faculty in these units. The reason given is "financial exigency" -- upper administrations of several universities across the country (and in blue states like Oregon also) appear to be giddy to use the context of Trump attacks on higher ed to dismantle the humanities. Faculty at OU won a faculty union not long ago; this may be, in part, a retaliation for that, I've been told. The union is working with AAUP, etc.; my understanding is that the maximum spotlight is needed at this point.
A massive attack on several humanities units (Arabic Studies, Judaic Studies, Holocaust Studies, Classics, Religion, German & Scandinavian, Russian/East European/Eurasian Studies) *and* tenure now unfolding at the University of Oregon (a blue state!). Closure of units and faculty layoffs threatened.
VALKS MALKS, LAKERS IN 5!
