Wtaf is this question my university just asked me about my project?

Does the project involve any work that could be interpreted as promoting DEIA, climate change research, or non-compliant to any Presidential Executive Orders?

For no reason at all, I would like to remind everyone in Los Angeles that Metro Rail and Bus are only $1.75 to ride. With free transfers for 2 hours. And a daily cap at $5. And the Transit app is the most helpful tool when planning journeys on public transportation.

Big news: The family of Tierra Walker, who died after she couldn't get an abortion, is suing a slate of Texas actors in state court, including AG Ken Paxton. They say the state ban is unconstitutional. This is the first suit of its kind. 19thnews.org/2026/09/texa...

Tierra Walker died after she couldn’t get an abortion. Her family is suing Ken Paxton

The case, filed Tuesday, argues that Texas’ near-total abortion ban violates the state and U.S. Constitutions, which “prohibit state actors from killing their citizens.”

Recommend Ed Sheeran follow up on his statement that it wasn't his choice to drop Macklemore—by making a public statement to request all to come back to the tour and find alternative venues. If it really wasn't his choice, as he has stated, then there's no better outcome.

Half of Russia’s six largest diesel-producing refineries are now either shut down or operating at sharply reduced capacity after Ukrainian drone strikes. That’s not just an inconvenience. It’s a direct blow to the fuel supply that keeps Russia’s war machine moving.

This is an odd take. Adjuncts are now 50% of some college and university faculty. This is not because there are too many PhDs on the job market. It's because universities decided to structure the jobs this way to save money, and the regional accrediting commissions let them do it.

People don't really have a great sense of how fast geologically (and how slow in human terms) our experiment with burning fossil fuels will affect our ongoing Ice Age climate. 50,000 to 100,000 year timescale, things are back to "normal." 100 to 10,000 year timescale, things are not.

Graph from paper in quoted post showing the concentration of atmospheric CO2 concentration on the y-axis in parts per million and time before present (negative) and after present (positive) on the x-axis in thousands of years. The different colors represent different emissions scenarios, with the red being the most extreme "we burn all carbon" and other colors being progressively less extreme. Vertical lines mark the onset of glaciations in the past (black) or for the different emission scenarios (colorful). CO2 concentrations fall over the next 50,000 to 150,000 years to a point that major glaciations begin to occur once again.
