A good take on no kings day 2. Apparently, not a single incident with police in NYC, among the hundreds of thousands out marching. It was as peaceful and joyous a march as I’ve seen.

RFK Jr. explains why socializing with Jeffrey Epstein wasn't such a big deal for him: ...I ran into everybody in NY. I mean, I knew Harvey Weinstein, I knew Roger Ailes, I knew -- O.J. Simpson came to my house. Bill Cosby came to my house."
Genuinely least self-aware motherfucker in Washington.

Then they come for justice and lawmakers.
Trump wanted James Comey prosecuted. Now he is indicted.

Trump wanted John Bolton prosecuted. Now he is indicted.

Two headlines on front page of NYT. First is "Trump Weighs Transforming Refugee Policy. White People Would be Given Preference." Second is "Justices May Ban Race as a Factor in District Maps. Nation's Political Balance Could Shift If Court Guts 1964 Law."
Where we stand, in long arc of history:
-Story on left, adding race as a factor when that favors white people.
-Story on right, banning race as a factor when that favors non-whites.
I often complain about NYT headlines and story-play. But these are strong. Including "If Court Guts 1965 Law."
Unless and until some kind of compelling legal and moral argument is presented as to why this is a legitimate use of deadly force, this is just…mass murder.

Solidarity politics wins.
Purity politics loses.
Every single university needs to firmly stand united on this.
This has always been the plan.
Divide and make examples of specific universities, then attack every single center of higher education in the country.
Fascists always come for the academics first. Then the judges. Then...
I’ve been sitting with this the last few hours. It’s really hitting me just how fucking depraved you have to be to respond to an inquiry about an abducted child with a screenshot of a post on elon musk’s hellsite smearing this kid who has no ability to defend himself. It’s unfathomable.

Good post with a good argument about universities and the "compact", basically the same argument that applies to law firms
If this is how the leadership responds to extortion threats that go against their values, why would you trust them to protect your interests?

For example TiCS and TiNS list “first author, et al” for any paper with 3 (!) or more authors. It can’t be about space: they do this both for PDF and online layout. Who does this serve? Curious if there’s a good reason.

I wanted to share my reasons why I think it is of paramount importance to attend a No King’s protest on October 18, and to make the case to everyone you know to do the same.

I am proud of MIT, where our branch of AAUP has voted unanimously to endorse this statement urging MIT leadership and the MIT Corporation to reject the Compact wholesale
