When you publish a website that posts the names and photos of scholars who have written or said things you disagree with and encourage people to surveil and harass them, you are not, in fact, a β€œfree speech” organization.

My precious car needs serious repairs but it's under warranty. So a reprieve on the anxiety front. Then the dealership gave me a loaner car (which I'm liable for) with a MSRP valued more than I've ever made in a year. πŸ˜…
