Gaslighting. Know the warning signs.

These are not tweedy ivory tower eggheads that the media paints them. They are PEOPLE. People living, often, on pretty subpar salaries.

I think that translation of stories is a sacred dance, beautiful beyond words. And it is made of interpretation and experience of the translator, of their own culture and experiences and love of an artwork they're trying to share in their own language. Machines don't belong here.

I needed this today and you do too

It turns out it takes more than a pen to change the Constitution.

If you're a federal worker and you want to blow the whistle and share emails or memos from the new administration, my DMs are open and I'll keep you anonymous.

"Harvard University has laid off its staff in the Harvard Slavery Remembrance Program, the unit of its $100 million Harvard & the Legacy of Slavery initiative tasked with identifying the direct descendants of those enslaved by Harvard affiliates."
