Absolutely horrifying. Fear of sexual violence prevents women candidates from running for office — a gendered burden that impacts representation overall. It is brave for Bernadette Greene-Placentia to share this. (NB Article contains graphic descriptions) www.phoenixnewtimes.com/news/congres...

I just don't understand how people can eulogize Swartz and simultaneously conclude that the world needs *more* intellectual property enforcement

If it were truly known how many of us exist as “brain in a vat” … Disassociation is a trauma response, it shouldn’t have to be a way of life.

It can't be left up to randos online to uncover who is actually being interviewed in national news outlets. Laundering the subject's lies about who they are is not journalism

A reminder that if not for the Supreme Court in US v. MORRISON, Jane Doe woukd have had access to the federal courts for a civil rights action. The Court said that rape is a local matter no matter how great the impact on commerce.

Neiman Marcus closed its downtown Dallas flagship on Wednesday. The store played a notable role in the history of desegregation in Dallas. Previously, Black shoppers across the US could enter department stores, but they weren't allowed to try on clothes without adhering to certain conditions. 🧵

From, of all things, an old/archived *Cornell University* page on the topic, and uh BOY IS THIS A RICH TEXT:
archived 2014 Cornell University website page from the Office of the Dean of Students: 
"HomeGreek LifeAbout Our OfficeThe Power of 2%
The Power of 2%
From an article in the New York Times:

Since the founding of the American College Fraternity movement in 1776, fraternities have grown to symbolize leadership, independence, scholastic achievement and service to their various campuses and communities. Fraternity men represent a very small percentage, only 2% of the male population in the United States. However, that 2% is a very powerful group of individuals. Fraternity men have gone on to hold many of the top positions in our nation, from the business world to the political arena.

Approximately 80% of the top executives of Fortune 500 companies are fraternity men. 76% of current United States Senators and Congressmen are fraternity men. 100 of 158 cabinet members since 1900 have been fraternity men. 40 of 47 Supreme Court Justices since 1910 have been fraternity men All but two United States Presidents since 1825 have been fraternity men.

It is certainly no surprise that today's college and university students express a keen interest in the Greek system. The opportunities are endless and the benefits speak for themselves. Each year thousands of young men enter the working world with the competitive advantage of fraternity experience and alumni contacts."

the thing about MAGA, including elon, is that taking their money can be very easily legally done because we have insanely bad laws about asset forfeiture, and you can also very easily build a case to the public for why. you don't need to convince a skeptical judge. and money is why they do this.
