WATCH: Dr. Ahmad Yousaf spent three weeks volunteering at Al-Aqsa Hospital in Gaza amid Israel's brutal assault. He spoke at a press conference during the DNC about what he witnessed and joined other American doctors calling for an end to U.S. support for the war.

A lot of problems in academia would be solved if academic workers just thought of our jobs as jobs, rather than romanticizing research and academic writing as special contributions to the pursuit of knowledge.

Stanford fired every single one of its lecturers in creative writing—a devastating, short sighted, and cruel decision that will not serve our students. My solidarity to these colleagues, who deserve better.

The Israeli government has launched the largest invasion of the West Bank in decades—with fighter jets, drones, armored vehicles, and ground forces. The goal has always been the ethnic cleansing of Palestine.

This is outrageous. The whole world can see what's happening in the West Bank, but the Biden/Harris administration plays dumb -- just as they have for nearly a year as the largest recipient of US welfare in the world conducts a genocide in Gaza. No primary = no accountability

Seems like more people should be talking about how a libertarian charter city startup funded by Sam Altman, Marc Andreessen, and Peter Thiel is trying to bankrupt Honduras. Próspera is suing Honduras to the tune of $11B (GDP is $32B) and is expected to win, per the NYT 🧵

Extremely proud of and in awe of Chantal Clarke! This wild, extremely funny, patriarchy-destroying story—an excerpt from Chantal's novel—is at once soulful and outrageous, a rare, very magical combination. I'm so excited to see it in the new @thebaffler! thebaffler.com/stories/persis…
