Kafka Comes to CUNY Three days ago, the New York Post reported that Hunter College was looking to hire a scholar in Palestinian Studies. The job ad read: We seek a historically grounded scholar who takes a critical lens ...

β€œIf a scholar studying these historical phenomena cannot be hired at CUNY, if a job advertisement mentioning these historical phenomena cannot be posted at CUNY, it’s safe to say that it probably won’t be long before any course examining these phenomena cannot be taught at CUNY.”

Elon Musk did a Hitler-adjacent salute at a Trump rally, and the ADL rushed to defend him, calling it β€œan awkward moment of enthusiasm.”

This is the same ADL whose CEO called tweeting β€œFree Palestine” at him antisemitic in 2023.

Trump refused to attend Biden's inauguration four years ago. Biden today says "welcome home". There's got to be a limit to this kind of courtesy to the first convicted felon ever to become US president.

The cover of the book Parable of the Sower.

Cannot stop thinking about how Octavia Butler wrote a book in 1993 about climate change. It opens with deadly fires in LA in 2025. In the story, a fascist President has just won office with the campaign slogan "Make America Great Again."
