#Tenured & promoted. Five years ago, I got a Wednesday night call that changed everything. Since then: countless projects, wild ideas, and a journey worth every step. Grateful for the mentors, colleagues, and students who made it all possible.

A small watercolor painting of a horrified looking cartoon dumpling.

My phone just auto corrected "trauma dumping" to "trauma dumpling," so I painted this in case anyone would like a visual of my mental state.

How's everyone else doing?

You better fucking be right, fortune cookie

Project 2025 is an effort by the Heritage Foundation, not Donald Trump | Fact check Though the project includes people in Trump's orbit, he said he is not involved with the effort. Project 2025 said it doesn't speak for any candidate.

A reader reminds me of the @usatoday.com "fact check" that claimed it was false that Project 2025 was a Trump project.

Seems like something they'd be a touch embarrassed about now?

They’ll have to do it between breaths ..

There you have it. Texas is the first state to officially offer up their state for the concentration camps

Trump names Linda McMahon as his pick for Education secretary | CNN Politics President-elect Donald Trump has named his transition co-chair Linda McMahon as his pick to serve as the next secretary of the Department of Education.

I see that we've surpassed international laughingstock and achieved galactic laughingstock.

While some high profile media types are flailing on the eve of Trump 2.0, there are a number of news outlets vowing to continue doing fearless reporting. I highlight a number of these brave, relentless efforts in this new piece for @heartlandsignal.bsky.social. ⤵️

Bullshit. If I had wanted power, I would have kept my mouth shut.

I preferred my conscience.

"Any thoughts on the icon for the back cover?"
Me: Oh, how about a quill with dragon wings? On a treasure map? Wing span matters.

Tweet that says if your concern with trans women is that men might claim to self-ID as trans to gain access to women’s spaces and assault them, then your problem is actually with predatory men and not trans women.

All of this.

Public schools will collapse, and we’ll all pay the price.

The promise of $10k per family if the Department of Education is eliminated sounds good—until you realize it’s far from enough. Private schools average $12–13k a year (and that’s if they even accept your child.) Homeschooling? You’ll get $1k, but it costs roughly up to $1,800 per year.

If men could get pregnant, we'd probably see drive-thru for vasectomy reversals by now. Just a thought.

Thank you!!!!❤️❤️❤️

When you need an electorate dumb enough to believe that migrants are eating their dogs and kids are getting sex changes at school…

it makes sense to go to war on colleges.

Unanimously, they say💌
