Swedens new law is a serious blow to human and labor rights and in defiance of decades of social science showing that only decriminalization of sex work promotes positive public health outcomes and supports sex workers autonomy and rights. 2/3

The Swedish Parliament @sveriges_riksdag @gudrunnordnorg @themartinmelin @sanna_backeskog
has voted to expand the criminalization of sex work to include sexual acts performed remotely. This is harmful policy that willfully ignores the voices of sex workers. 1/3

Overall, I loved #FXs #DyingforSex, but I do take issue with the queer sexual savior trope that drives part of the story. Still, the prioritizing of platonic love and friendship over romantic love was refreshing in a culture obessesed w/romantic relationships.

09.04.2025 23:48 β π 2 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Excerpt from Rutgers University Senate resolution calling for a Mutual Academic Defense Compact. The excerpt reads: "BE IT RESOLVED THAT, the Rutgers University Senate urges the President of Rutgers University to formally propose and help establish a Mutual Academic Defense Compact (MADC) among all members of the Big Ten Academic Alliance; BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED THAT, under this compact, all participating institutions shall commit meaningful funding to a shared or distributed defense fund. This fund shall be used to provide immediate and strategic support to any member institution under direct political or legal infringement;"
This exciting resolution from Rutgers University Senate is exactly the kind of model I think higher ed needs: a mutual defense pact of, in this case, Big 10 schools. They call for member institutions to create a joint defense fund and make resources available to any member institution under attack.
