Any conservatives that still believe they can do business with right-wing nut jobs and emerge with more power or their dignity, take note.

It's happened. I'm now a college basketball fan. #Nebrasketball

May is National Military Appreciation Month, and the fact that MAGA doesn’t know that shows how little of a shit they actually give about veterans.

Was sick in bed for a few days and went out today to some dying plants. Turns out that my family thought we had a automated sprinkler system. Didn’t know I was so stealthy.

People get really mad if you point out that inflation has fallen a lot since the passage of the Inflation Reduction Act but it is true that this is what happened.

Weird. Using Threads has actually caused me to use Twitter more frequently again. I doubt I’m alone.

In her article “Many Crusades: Women’s Pursuits of Populism and Women’s Rights in 1890s Kansas,” Ann Vlock explores the yet untold stories of thirteen women reformers from rural Kansas who advocated for their communities at a convention in Topeka. Kansas Historical Society

Ken Rogoff in 2010 claimed that Germany was about to face “its own Greece problem“, when Greece was in deep debt public debt crisis. We should never forget how problematic the role of some prominent economists was during the Eurozone crisis in promoting fiscal austerity.

What I wanted to bring out in this post is also the contradictions of globalization. Neoliberals love globalization, but cannot accept that its largest success case followed the very opposite domestic policies.

It’s happening. I’m almost done the first draft of the first chapter of my dissertation. Next up is a big research push at the archives to collect the rest of my principal source documents. So psyched. #PhD

You cannot worship the child in the manger while drowning the child at the border.

Solitary confinement is inhumane and must be abolished. We must end this sadistic practice. That’s why I introduced, along with colleagues and survivors, the #EndSolitary Confinement Act.

I’m always amazed how right wing conspiracists think that government—which they believe is comically incompetent and inefficient—somehow can arrange vast conspiracies involving literally tens of thousands of apparently perfect henchmen, with none of them ever spilling the beans.

I’ve freed myself from the horrible, crappy and unreliable Outlook. I am embracing a combo of Apple Mail and Thunderbird (I use Mac and PC and have both Google and 365 accounts) to see whether there is solution to my multi-account calendar and mail pains. Any recommendations?

Painful to read this when financial resources for the teaching-&-learning mission of the university continue to dwindle. The fans’ “comfort”? Their need to be able to go grab a drink? Some of our classes are held in windowless basement rooms with inadequate security measures.

Translating Republican dysfunction to “government dysfunction” is not only imprecise, it assists the GOP by echoing their message.

The press has succumbed to what I call “the banality of crazy,” in which they breathlessly report on every minor Biden gaffe, but barely cover Trump calling to execute generals or shoplifters. This numbing effect helps Trump—and warps American politics: forkingpaths.co/p/the-case-for…

This version of the Toronto #BlueJays was disgustingly flawed right from the start. Soooo many mistakes made by #Shatkins since they thought themselves smarter than Anthopolous. Pretty obvious how that worked out. #NextLevel Firings better happen by tomorrow.

#shatkins This whole management team needs to go. Squandered some great rosters. What a disaster.
