I will be damned if I allow a bunch of Confederate-waving January 6th apologists give the American people a lecture on flag waving.
There is ZERO reason to enter an argument about patriotism with people who still worship traitors to America 150+ years later.
They. Are. Breaking. The. Law.
unlike Vietnam or Afghanistan at least the Marines coming to.L.A. know exactly what this fight is all about
I ran an experiment, simultaneously posting articles on Bluesky and X, and then testing to see how many people actually clicked and read them. The numbers on Bluesky are higher, both because the X algorithm downranks journalism, and because Bluesky attracts readers, not just shitposters.
Every extra hour that ICE spends facing off with activists is an hour they can't spend kidnapping other people.
Every extra minute ICE has to spend contingency planning around activists and neighbors, every extra officer ICE has to put on a kidnap squad, is a drain on their efficiency.
Remember: Wealth can’t be separated from power. Power begets wealth and wealth begets power. We're seeing in real time how the extreme concentration of wealth is distorting our politics, rigging our markets, and granting unprecedented power to a handful of billionaires.
As a candidate, Trump promised to end surprise medical billing.
Just weeks into his second term, DOGE has slashed the federal office charged with implementing a bipartisan law cracking down on surprise medical bills.
Yet another Trump lie.
As a professor of English, allow me to try, humbly and with the proper respect, to offer an appropriate response to the President’s address:
Fuck you, you fucked-up fuck, and fuck all the fuckers who willingly fuck with you, especially. You can all fuck all the way off, and then fuck off some more.
Bernie is right. No more playing dead. No more running to the center.
Sincerely,
Someone who has watched you do this after every election loss the past 50 years.
We have to stand up for science! Anyone who can join these rallies and believes that US science must be defended should come! I’ll be there in DC - join me!
Fucking MAGA Morons
Trickle up economics.
I've never rooted for cholesterol as hard as I am now.
Zelensky is a hero.
Trump is an embarrassment.

It’s amazing to me that politicians don’t commit to post first on @bsky.app and to engage with constituents here
THIS is more powerful than CNN , MSNBC, The Post will ever be.
You can broadcast for 9 mins on a declining medium, or engage here and start a real discussion.
Which is more powerful?
Exciting new paper on damage&prevention to rat liver sinusoidal endothelial cells (LSECs) by researchers from UiT - The Arctic University of Norway 🔬👇
Excited to share our new paper
„Hydrogen peroxide damage to rat liver sinusoidal endothelial cells is prevented by n-acetyl-cysteine but not GSH“
DOI: 10.1097/HC9.0000000000000617
Great collab with amazing researchers:

Heartbreaking and devastating, and yet a story all too common for those in academia...😔 @21group.bsky.social
infuriating ... harassers/abusers are commonly also narcissists and have effectively limitless energy for gaslighting, threatening retaliation, wearing down those that might hold them slightly accountable, etc. ... most people cannot weather such an onslaught and end up leaving one way or another
One time in grad school I asked a department chair why a particular professor known for harassment and lots of other bad stuff wasn’t fired. His response: “he brings in $1M a year.” That was a rude awakening.
The thread i linked to contains a summary of the article from my side :) followed by some personal observations and statements.
@academicabuse.com maybe a story for you?
This year, be the nodder in the audience every presenter deserves
I’m with Denmark.
My family and I celebrate Christmas as a time to come together, even though we’re not religious. We feel so fortunate to share this season in peace and safety. Many do not. I hope everyone of you is safe, healthy, and surrounded by moments of joy. Wishing you all a happy and peaceful holiday season!
I agree with you. In the last days I met many women who were grateful for this article and who have experienced similar things. Sadly many are too scared to say something openly. The silence is painful for many whistleblowers, especially, as it was really hard to come forward.
Disgusted, disturbed and distraught to read about the silence from #UiT. When whistleblowers dare to come forward with names and faces, while tenured academics stay silent, something is fundamentally wrong. Freedom of speech matters most when it's hardest.

News like this is always shocking, but it's especially disappointing when it occurs at your own university. What's perhaps most infuriating, however, is the response to the article: complete silence... www.nordnorskdebatt.no/ubehagelig-s...
We must all stand up against harassment, sexual harassment, and abuse of power wherever it happens. Silence enables abusers; speaking up creates change. Together, we can build workplaces and systems where everyone is treated with dignity and respect.
