Couldn’t sleep, so I worked on the reading due in day 1 of law school

Thank you so much!

This is an absolute betrayal to people who faithfully served their country. There is not a single Republican on earth who gets to utter the lie that they “care about our troops” now

Parts of the Constitution were erased from the Library of Congress website, including the section featuring the foreign emoluments clause.

The removal was blamed on a "coding error."

Here's a reminder of what the clause says, just in case Congress ever decides to enforce it...

The small town I grew up in and where my grandpa spent his life, dedicated to giving back to the community, planted a tree in his honor. It’s still weird he’s gone, but nice to have a physical reminder that he mattered to others too.

I plan on doing a unit on indigenous oral tradition for my 11th grade English class. Any one have resource recommendations? @shanehawk.com

Trump Went to War With the Ivies. Community Colleges Are Being Hit.

‘We are dying slowly, save us’: starvation takes hold in Gaza after a week of appalling milestones Parents watch children waste away as deliberate aid restrictions from Israel mean hunger is becoming a killer, as experts confirm famine is currently playing out The people of Gaza did not need this week’s official confirmation from UN-backed hunger experts that the “worst-case scenario of famine” was unfolding there. For months they have watched as their children waste away. “All my children have lost nearly half of their body weight,” said Jamil Mughari, a 38-year-old from Maghazi in central Gaza. “My daughter, who is five years old, now weighs only 11kg.

Authoritarians are attacking universities. Here's how it's going at one public school. I'm publicly documenting an event timeline to help bring order to the chaotic nature of events and help other schools plan the responses they are likely going to need.

I made an event timeline to try to make sense of all the federal overreach at @georgemasonu.bsky.social and whoo boy. When you lay it out like this, the executive over reach comes into focus. open.substack.com/pub/misofact...

I love that Kash Patel has been outted as the FBI office gossip, telling everyone who will listen that Donald Trump is in the Epstein files.

Donald is going to be much, much unhappy about them. Hope it doesn't make them not get along . . .

2:12 AM on July 22,2025 is when my grandpa passed. He was 92 and now I have to learn to navigate the world without him in it.

Pardon my absence. My grandfather has entered his last days, so I’ve been prioritizing him and his comfort. He was the biggest rock in my life and facing the rest of it without him is so hard to fathom.

We must be precise in calling out the Trump administration for what it is: a fascist regime.

As long as a Ho can bake.

I love this. Would adore such a cute pair as my desktop wallpaper.

This made me happy while here in the ER

Gotta love a middle of the night ER visit 😒 At least they got me triaged quickly

I just left the Everglades Immigrant Interment Camp. No, I’m not using their ridiculous name. It was a very tough to witness humans in those cages. Every Floridian should be ashamed that our taxpayer money is being used for this.

“In a new paper published earlier this year in the Journal of Marketing, we uncovered a surprising pattern: The more knowledge people have about AI and how it works, the less likely they are to embrace it.”

BREAKING: Judge blocks Trump's birthright citizenship order despite US Supreme Court ruling reut.rs/4nwPoHQ

The 14th Amendment was ratified today in 1868—guaranteeing equal protection under the law.

157 years later, Trump’s trying to erase it like it was a typo.
