Because international student enrollment is so often used as a cudgel in discussions about immigration, this is a good time to remind people that international students aren't taking up spaces for US students at state schools, they are paying full tuition that FUNDS SCHOLARSHIPS FOR US STUDENTS.

Mamdani: "We believe in standing up for those we love. Whether you are an immigrant, a member of the trans community, one of the many Black women that Donald Trump has fired from a federal job ... your struggle is ours too."

Mamdani going so hard for trans right and winning is some juicy proof that every dem that abandoned us didnโ€™t do it for politically advantageous reasons. They did it because theyโ€™re transphobes and they will lose for it

Imagine falling for this shit. The money is all there and if you think he'll actually fund SNAP, you're crazy. Dems, he's giving you a layup on messaging here. Trump says he HAS the money but is withholding it from American citizens because of politics. These are YOUR CONSTITUENTS.

I keep seeing journalism described as an "ecosystem" and I guess that tracks because it's undergoing an extinction crisis caused by billionaires, too.

...and less than 24 hours later Condรฉ Nast has fired Lex and the rest of the Teen Vogue political desk, even as stories like this were bringing huge numbers of readers to the site

For any unfamiliar with the quality of journalism at Teen Vogue, it's well known for hard-hitting stories on "politically sensitive" topics including climate.

Then there's CBS: the only major network to increase climate coverage in the last few years. They just axed nearly their whole climate team.

I was laid off from Teen Vogue today along with multiple other staffers, and today is my last day.

certainly more to come from me when the dust has settled more, but to my knowledge, after today, there will be no politics staffers at Teen Vogue.

It's not in this article but the government asserts that the sandwich was thrown at "point blank range", which implies subway sandwiches have defined effective weapon ranges of varying lethality, and I would like to see the government's chart of these ranges.

A man was arrested for playing Darth Vader's theme music, "The Imperial March," behind National Guard troops walking through Logan Circle.

Torba is a piece of shit, but this idea that men talk like racist assholes by default and itโ€™s somehow anti-masculine to criticize it is fucking untrue and men should push back against it. No, โ€œmale communicationโ€ is not racist and sexist and hateful when the conversation is being had by good men.

Unless and until some kind of compelling legal and moral argument is presented as to why this is a legitimate use of deadly force, this is justโ€ฆmass murder.
