Gabrielle Goliath Strikes a Tuning Fork of Dissent The cancellation of the South African artist’s Venice Biennale pavilion reveals the machinations of state censorship — and the ways we can collectively resist it.

The levels of subterfuge involved in attempts to sabotage Gabrielle Goliath's work hints at the expansive nature of contemporary warfare - where borders are made conveniently permeable if and when a powerful state suppresses dissent @hyperallergic.com hyperallergic.com/gabrielle-go...

Maybe Don’t Talk to the New York Times About Zohran Mamdani It’s remarkable, the people you’ll hear from. Teach for even a little while at an expensive institution—the term they tend to prefer is “elite”—and odds are that eventually someone who was a studen…

I havent read such a banger of an essay in a very long time. This is so well-written!

YouTube video by York University - Faculty of Liberal Arts & Professional Studies The 2025 Alchemy Lecture: Sound—at the Interregnum

So wonderful to listen to the 2025 Alchemy Lecture: Sound at the Interregnum. It's chilly, sunny day here. I made rooibos tea, crunched berry pastry made by the sourdough baker.
Was so grateful for the nourishment, for the vibrations that all sentient beings make 🤍

The Harisiades case the Trump DOJ cites first here represented one of the low points of early McCarthyism. Permanent residents who’d been in the US since childhood or their early teens were deported for communist party membership.

No law broken.
But deported because…

Yes. If DHS can barge in, say your visa was revoked, be told you have a green card, say it's revoked too, and then disappear you so that neither your lawyer nor your family can find you, then all the guardrails are gone. There is no policy, practice, or law protecting anyone.

My grant was one of those terminated. Our team included political and climate scientists using machine learning/language models and a unique corpus of high quality media from developing countries to model the effects of climate change on climate adaptation, political stability, and conflict. (1/2)
