We are unionizing to ensure investment in education and educators. A union lets all faculty members bring the best they have to offer university community.

unsure of how much I’ll be there (or here). I definitely don’t want to participate in anything Elon-related, and it all feels less fun anyway

Imagine thinking that Harris's campaign was about "pronouns and purity." You would have to have ignored every single ad, speech, rally, etc. Too much of our pundit class just openly hates trans and non-binary people.

6/ We don't listen enough; we tell people what's good for them. And when progressives like Bernie aggressively go after the elites that hold people down, they are shunned as dangerous populists. Why? Maybe because true economic populism is bad for our high-income base. 😬

they should hold some sort of national-level test to see if Republicans will vote with Republicans
The two Republican senators could be a key check on Donald Trump's power come January.

anyways, my theory is that “dissatisfaction with inflation” is at least partly code for ppl subconsciously realizing their life is never going to go back to the way it was before COVID. ofc Trump did a horrible job, but Biden was supposed to fix it

who was everyone’s favorite first Trump admin character? I was first a fan of Wilbur Ross because he reminded me of the Six Flags dancing guy, but later became a Mnuchin head because his wife had so many funny antics and he prevented an invasion of Venezuela
