There’s no evidence that I am not a cat. PhD student in Agricultural Economics at UW-Madison, or perhaps a cat with few teeth. All views are my own, likes and re-posts do not imply endorsements.

Some people drink coffee flavored milk. I remind myself there are greater ideas with which to concern my thoughts

Just a reminder, if you were an REI member who purchased more than $10 worth of items in 2024 or joined in 2024, you can vote until midnight May 1st to reject the proposed slate of anti-labor Trump supporters for the REI board vote.escvote.com/REI/

I know WSU has another new variety that is expected in a few years. As that approaches it would be interesting to see if Cosmic Crisp cultivation spreads

Upcoming virtual job fairs April 15 and 16 10 am to 12 pm and 1 pm to 3 pm

The Trump Administration is busy baselessly firing tens of thousands of federal workers, including thousands of our veterans. Here in Wisconsin, we welcome work and talent.

My administration is hosting virtual job fairs on April 15 and 16th. Find more here ⬇️

From my understanding, Trichonephila clavipes is native to the southern US. Trichonephila clavats (Joro) is introduced and is in Georgia/South Carolina but is not reported to be in Florida.

The obscenity (and the menace to Jews) of these officials pretending any of this police state assault on our constitutional order has anything to do with concern about antisemitism is off the charts. Just diabolical.

I did update the figure a bit and added labels, but it probably works better as sequential slides in a presentation. If you want the code and the pptx just drop me a dm and I’ll send it all your way.

People will argue that we should be willing to defy the law in the name of justice while also treating criminalized people as disposable. It's incoherent.

'A whole lot of uncertainty': Tariffs take a toll on Wisconsin farmers Much of the thousand acres of soybean crop at Malchine Farms in Racine Co. exports to China.

Wisconsin's farmers have been the backbone of our state for generations, and Trump's whiplash on reckless tariff taxes and trade wars are going to crush them. I'm urging Republicans in Congress to stand up for Wisconsin farmers and put an end to the chaos.

A few thoughts on today's fascinating Rutgers Senate meeting about their academic defense compact resolution 🧵

1) Just having the meeting and opening it up to the public was so valuable. Rutgers President Holloway was there, and so were folks from other Big 10 and beyond institutions, including me.

We Can’t Fight Antisemitism Without Fighting Anti-Palestinian Hate Antisemitism is the main tool the Trump administration is using to stifle dissent and target Palestinians. It’s rooted in bigotry. And it’s harming the fight against antisemitism itself.

My latest. On the way antisemitism has become redefined as support for Palestinian life. And how that has led to the supposed fight against antisemitism becoming bigotry itself.

And how that, then, has led to the failure to fight actual antisemitism in our midst, endangering Jews along the way.
