/2 Bad Bunny stands for β€œimmigration” because he’s not white. His existence within the United States β€” and particularly his broad popularity and great success β€” are an affront to Trumpian white nationalist values. That’s the WaPo message, brought to you with Jeff Bezos’ Amazon smile.

Agree. I get it…it just makes me sort of feel crazy for choosing to do this if I dwell on it for too long.

And it’s definitely something that I try to help mentees understand.

β€œ(This is how men behave.)”

It is not how men behave. It is how creeps behave. I swear to god, nobody is as eager to torch the reputation of men as men are.

β€œThis is how men behave” is…not the answer.

Sadly, I guess it actually is often the answer. But it is not an *acceptable* answer.

This is the U Penn donor who helped push the President out, pushed to eliminate arts & science offerings, and drafted Trumps "compact" with universities.
People like Rowan repeatedly claimed the moral high ground to impose their agenda on students and faculty.

"About 500 seniors live at Sinai Residences in Boca Raton, Florida, including many Holocaust survivors. Recently, some of them asked if they could hide the building’s Haitian staff in their apartments."

Never mind the jobs you had, tell me five classes you took in college:
1. Emerging Infectious Diseases
2. Independent study on St Matthew Passion
3. Developmental Bio
4. Health Economics
5. The Cold War

This trend is giving me life. College is cool, knowledge is great. The liberal arts is rad. Being well rounded is the GOAT.

Fund all colleges and universities. We should be throwing money at them. Make it affordable for all. Let people take underwater basket weaving if they choose.
