A real exchange I had with HR today: HR: we can accommodate all your limitations in the office. Me: but I can’t drive… HR: its an employee’s responsibility to ensure they can get to work before accepting the role Me: … I was hired for a remote job. 🙃🙃🙃

1. Robert F. Kennedy Jr has attracted the support of a small but influential group of wealthy people It may not make Kennedy's bid for presidency viable But it could help legitimize Kennedy's lies about the safety and efficacy of vaccines And the consequence could be lethal 🧵

Mocking X, Elie Levine writes: “The visual element of Wordle is what allowed it to go viral in the first place. I remember catching wind of this game through Twitter, now known as X (back when everyone was still using the platform, ha ha), at the end of 2021.” — NYT, 8/31/23

At an important time like this, having links just post as pictures makes twitter unusable -- at a practical, fundamental level -- as a place to share checkable information.

A big day here at Salem State as Viking Hall is renamed in honor of our first African American graduate, Charlotte Forten. And what better day than February 29-Leap Day-straddling Black History Month & Women’s History Month? May Ms. Forten’s name and legacy live on!!
