I dug into the expanding fight over disability parking placards for pregnant women. Is it a no-brainer pro-family move or does it make life harder for disabled people? Are those even discrete categories? 19thnews.org/2025/12/disabl…

I love university emails that are like “prioritizing wellness during finals” when almost every ounce of a university does the exact opposite in every action/decision. (Also wellness is a eugenical technocratic tool at worse and a tool of libertarianism at best.)

Me thinking about radical behavior next semester: I am going to read the books and things and think about them and maybe write my own annotations of them if I’m really wild. (All, this is important, facilitated by having time to do so — and hopefully also the necessary health).

The always story about educational accommodations is not only all the people who need them and can’t get them and all the gates to getting them but also that we continue with educational approaches and systems that require permission for fair inclusion. Good day.

Them: What happens when students who have received accommodations encounter the workplace of capitalism? Me: So you’re a fucking piece of shit? Yes? Fuck you.

Spotify's a vile company but I get why people use it (I do too, to listen to old ska records and whatnot sometimes) and I'm not judgmental about it. I do think people should stop paying to use it tho, just use the free version and redirect those funds directly to artists. Anyway,

To state the obvious: to make education explicitly in support of capitalism is to erode education of any purpose other than to make education in support of capitalism. Capitalism is that delicate.

I have tens of thousands of tweets and this is my favorite because it perfectly encapsulates liberalism having completely lost any value it once might have had. Legacy jobs lost to their own selection of bullshit.
