Universities ‘threatened by spurious Home Office visa rejections’ New rules will punish institutions if study visas are rejected — but they say the official reasons given for refusals are often inaccurate

When I say that what used to be Britain's university 'system' is in complete chaos and enduring revolutionary upheaval, I really mean it. If anything I'm underplaying the whole thing.

Professional ambition now requires fluency in multiple dialects: corporate, creative, algorithmic.

The real skill lies in switching registers without losing coherence--and knowing "ALGORITHMS" are driven by paying sponsors.

Like the news.

If Democrats don’t pick up Virginia seats, MAGA comes into November with an advantage and pathway to saving their skins and cheating their way out of a colossal midterm loss.

Right after Russia helps Iran target our troops for strikes, Trump is making a special exception to allow a Russian tanker of oil to bypass the US blockade of Cuba tonight. Putin owns Trump.

I have wondered about leaders in UK universities just not getting the likely end destinations for a very long time, actually. I mention them in a blog a few times but it's easy to suspect 1. Personal gain; 2. British fatalism; 3. My uni will be just fine;

This clear, succint explanation of what the Reconstruction Amendments were meant to do, and why people in power are now attempting to erase them, is why I’m so excited to have @jamellebouie.net at our Constitution Series with the CHF on May 17th. (See pinned post.)

Donald actually told the truth for a change, admitting that he hangs out with losers because it makes him feel better about being a loser himself.

Sad :(

One in five UK hospitality businesses fear collapse as costs surge Exclusive: Pubs, restaurants and hotels warn of mounting pressure days before rates rises and higher wage bills take effect

One in five UK hospitality businesses fear collapse as costs surge.

Many restaurants, pubs, hotels are owned by private equity extracting profits, dividends, high exec pay; and dodging taxes.

Govt can help by curbing profiteering by landlords, energy/water companies and other sectors.

Hundreds of North Sea licences granted by Conservatives have ‘so far produced only 36 days worth of gas’ Exclusive: Findings cast doubt on claims new drilling would help cut bills and boost energy security, researchers say

Hundreds of North Sea licences granted by UK Tory Govt between 2010 and 2024 produced only 36 days of gas.

Tories, Reform selling fantasy of endless gas reserves.

Energy security needs more investment in renewables, nuclear, better insulated homes, better public transport.

Good evening.
The American passport is the most secure form of government issued identification a citizen can carry.
Sometimes complications arise when seeking this for ourselves and our family members.

“Boots on the ground” ->
Soldier shooting at people and getting shot at. Sometimes killing, sometimes dying. Often getting wounded physically and psychologically. Might accomplish a mission if their commanders know what the mission is.

While people are waiting for several hours to get through the airports, 47 goes golfing. While we are engaged in a war, he is in Florida having a party. He rails against mail in ballots, but mailed his ballot. He is all about himself. And a Democrat won there. Follow and protest.
