I’m a physics dude who teaches, mostly. My opinions are my own and may not reflect how I feel tomorrow. I like education, science, banjos, yo-yo’s, and feeding and housing folks. Drunk who hasn’t had one in a while. Writing https://tinyurl.com/36cwtrnx

It’s actually governed by folks who need large populations of under educated folks to exploit.

You know what was weird last week? I didn’t see anyone fired for quoting words actually spoken by Jane Goodall.

Science has had a very spotty past. We think of eugenics and race science etc as pseudoscience, but that’s pretty new. I’d lose the transistor as an invention if it meant Shockley never came to prominence. I think it’s important to reckon with that.

So higher education in the United States is done. It’s just HR gatekeeping.

I’ve been thinking about the colleges I’ve worked at a lot lately and I think having a board of trustees that need large pools of under educated folks to exploit is a mistake.

Here’s a new one, what of the government isn’t allowed to buy a product or service where every employee and subcontractor doesn’t make enough to own a house and feed their family.

A South Carolina, Republican judge has been arrested for possession of CSAM.

A flash drive was found that had sexually explicit photos & videos of minors, including infants & toddlers. Sick fuck.

With everyone so concerned about fairness on the right these days can we get a movement to abolish inheritance?

I’m not kidding when I say no elected official is doing enough and they are all complicit.

Critical part of the President's new $100,000 charge for H1-B visas: The Administration can also offer a $100,000 discount to any person, company, or industry that it wants. Replacing rules with arbitrary discretion.

Want visas? You know who to call and who to flatter.

I’ve never felt so politically homeless as I do at this point. To resist oppressive violence is viewed as criminal by our entire political class. No one runs on the ability of working folks to organize freely. Violence through policy and legislation never has consequences.

I see all these powerful rich people doing nothing, but asking their powerful rich friends to stop enacting policy that puts working folks lives in danger. I don’t see anyone but folks who live check to check doing much of anything, now that I think about it.

It actually makes sense that our ed secretary used to be affiliated with a testosterone fueled soap opera and is pushing out our new civics education program

I regularly discuss with my partner if we should have left the USA. Didn’t know this would be part of my midlife crisis.
