Good to know that the alarms are still functional. Never change, USyd.

Outrage and Resistance: Abolitionist Lessons for the Present Crisis The Trump Administration’s open rejection of due process and equal protection echoes some of the darkest aspects of antebellum America, when black Americans were frequently kidnapped and disappeared…

Preston’s lawyers engaged in a strategic practice of direct representation. But they also understood that legal representation would not bring about the change they sought. Instead, they used the courtroom as an opportunity to build power and galvanize the public.

This has been such an exciting election for Bradfield - a Liberal safe seat from its inception, until now! Hopeful for the recount, but regardless, I’m proud of my electorate and @nicboele.bsky.social for showing the Libs that no seat is truly a safe seat anymore.

Term paper time means one thing… Baking is BACK!!

Harvard Will Not Comply With a List of Trump Administration Demands Federal officials said Harvard must enact “merit-based reform” in hiring and admissions, among other things. Harvard called the demands unlawful.

"“No government — regardless of which party is in power — should dictate what private universities can teach, whom they can admit and hire, and which areas of study and inquiry they can pursue,” said Alan Garber, Harvard’s president, in a statement to the university"

I found out about this website update via The Crimson, Harvard’s student newspaper. Read the original story here, it’s good: www.thecrimson.com/article/2025...

Harvard University Harvard University is devoted to excellence in teaching, learning, and research, and to developing leaders who make a difference globally.

Harvard redid its whole homepage to push back against the administration’s demands. I mean, this is just a website but I think it’s kind of a great PR move: www.harvard.edu

Katy Perry singing ‘What a Wonderful World’ on a joyride to space with some other millionaires is giving the same energy as we will heal the world if we, the rich, sing ‘Imagine’.

This is high art

It’s probably the busiest month of the Spring semester, which means that procrasti-baking is BACK!!

Hard to find more graphic evidence of the legacy of the war on terror, legally and politically

In addition to being a household name in the Honi Soit community, Khanh was a student in the first philosophy class that I had the privilege of teaching at @usyd-humanities.bsky.social. They were a ray of light, warmth and wisdom in the classroom, and will be sorely missed. issuu.com/srcpubs/docs...

From Statecraft To Soulcraft | NOEMA How the world’s illiberal powers like Russia and China rule through their visions of the good life.

“The major illiberal regimes worldwide today are ready & willing to use the soft & hard powers of the state to realize their visions of the good life. They are in the business of crafting souls, or soulcraft.”

An insightful take from my undergrad advisor @lefebvrealex.bsky.social! A must read for those that are concerned with liberalism's failures and possibilities, and curious about the values and ideals that inspire alternative visions of the good life. www.noemamag.com/from-statecr...

More class in his pinky than Trump has shown his entire life.
