Opinion | Biden Can’t Stop Immigration. Time to Embrace It. No matter how cruel or restrictive his policies, they will never be enough to appease his critics.

“No matter how cruel or restrictive Mr. Biden’s [immigration] policies are, they will never be enough to appease his critics. They also aren’t working. … Instead he should stake his legacy on something different: legalizing immigration.“

ICYMI I wrote about the need to disconnect book publishing from hiring/advancement and to enable scholars across institutional types (and outside academia) to write the books they want to write (and publishers want to publish).

Two white chicks translate ancient poems,
and here are the ways you may know 'em.
If the poetry scans,
you know it's not Anne's.
The Brit one
is Wilson.
Prof. Carson is older.
Prof. Wilson did Homer.
Both wear black, and translated the Bacchae.
