The philosopher Agnes Callard talks frankly about her marriage—she left her ex-husband for her graduate student, and the three now live together—in hopes of showing students how philosophy can apply to the most consequential decisions of their lives.
There’s this girl on tiktok with fetal alcohol syndrome who tries to educate people about it and her mentions are filled with women saying it’s ok to drink while you are pregnant
"From the River to the Sea" is an explicitly genocidal slogan.
It calls for the complete destruction of Israel and the killing of all Jews, not just in Israel. If you are posting this, we're not friends.
If you are posting this, you are calling for my murder.
I have some new followers so i'd like to share a story some of you have heard before. On Oct 15, 2018, Matthew Yglesias came into the restaurant where I was working and went into the bathroom with his laptop, causing a huge line. He also did not tip me
I went to AIPAC last year and it was a deeply alienating experience. I actually almost had my press pass revoked for talking about Islamophobia during one panel. I wish more people understood how Bernie is exactly my type of Jew, and he makes me proud to be Jewish
This is the real apartheid. The fact that Jews can’t enter into “Palestinian territory”. I reject this. I reject that some places are dangerous for me to enter because I AM A JEW. Enough with this hate.

The guy who wrote this, Henry Olsen, is a senior fellow at the Ethics and Public Policy, whose former president is Elliott Abrams. Can't make this shit up
This is so pessimistic. We have to believe the survivors will be able to make a new life. We have to have hope. My Oma survived the Holocaust to live a normal life. People have incredible capacity for resilience. The scars will remain but the Palestinian people will thrive again
In all honesty, Tisya, given our experience working together at a dc restaurant I would say if you want to be a help to the movement you should take the quiz 😇
In high school, a girl in the state had committed suicide and we had an anti-bullying day in her memory. Everyone wore purple. The gym teacher wore red because he didn’t think bullying was bad and made a big deal abt it. Once he rolled a kid up in a wrestling mat and sat on him
the funny thing about nancy pelosi is that the only argument against her running again is just a vague "she's been in office too long," by all accounts she's completely with it and very high energy, it's just weird to have a former speaker/leader hanging around the house...
The goal of college is learning how to think. I’ve been to 2 eye doctors this year. One of them was a French literature major at a liberal arts school and she’s like 1000 times better than the one who just studied medicine
Give yourself space. Take some time. You don't owe anyone anything at all. Get a mani pedi, eat avocado toast. Go to Europe on your trust fund. Buy a yacht. Oopsie you relaxed for so long a senile shell of a man who grabs women inappropriately is president, o well
To the people who fought for Elizabeth Warren, most especially the women and young girls out there, a reminder: You owe no one anything right now. Allow yourself the space to grieve, and be angry, and be numb. Take the time. Take all of it that you need.
Serious sexual abuse allegations were leveraged against my uncle, and my family is gaslighting me, and I just want to make publicly clear: I believe the 13 year old who said something. She’s my fucking hero
This crazy man confronted me by name at the Thaiphoon restaurant in DC. He ran after me outside, called me a “fascist” repeatedly, then gestured that he wanted to fight. I said nothing to him. I took these photos after he returned back to his table.
I have a working theory that if you didn’t spend ages 12-13 online it is more stressful here. Sry boomer I was raised in the flames of the early internet
ppl who don't like the snake, do you have a different emoji that symbolizes feeling betrayed by someone you tried to be nice to who then fucked you over?
