Anyone in politics or holds high office and calls a senior lawyer a 'dirtbag' is NOT a colossus of intelligence.

I would have to agree with Sam @srfeld.bsky.social and feel equally passionate about sharing his thought with the @newyorker.com, potentially for use as a page filler if they still use such writing for Stop that metaphor and similar texts at the bottom of the hard print issues of the magazine.

Diskussion um Abwesenheit im Haushaltsausschuss: Jens Spahn und Peter Thiel offenbar gleichzeitig auf Sardinien
Warum war Jens Spahn auf Sardinien? Und was bedeutet der neuerliche Rücktritt für die Karriere des 46‑Jährigen? In Berlin und in der münsterländischen Heimat des CDU-Politikers wird erneut Kritik laut.

Thank you for writing this. As a Cornell alum I received the university’s email tonight. This is world class administrative incompetence. And in the current context that is saying something.

Not only is Trump ok with it, he has spent 10 years attacking Title IX on campus sexual assault & harassment protections. All because he empathizes with rapists and is more concerned with an SA allegation “ruining a young man’s future”

I attended Wells, the now-shuttered women’s college not far from Cornell. For many years Cornell’s Theta Delta Chi chapter were allowed to come to campus one night in the Fall to lure frosh women back to their frat by well dressed “brothers” toting bottles of champagne. Guess what would happen?

This is an Ivy League school that teaches Law. In an effort to protect its rapists, this Law-teaching, Ivy League school instructed the rapists to document their crimes in essay form. The Cornell faculty is as dumb as an AI data centre. I can't wait to hear those essays in court. #StupidCornell

Everyone employed at a postsecondary institution (& esp deans of students) should read Kate Manne's powerful essay: "Cease to be a place where sexual assault is often subject to less punishment than protesting and plagiarism. ... become a place where our sons are not initiated into rape culture."

Grinnell has a required writing class for first-year students. As part of the class, we have to teach about academic honesty and avoiding plagiarism. Easy enough, I thought, until I got the first student question: "Why does Grinnell seem to take this so much more seriously than it does Title IX?"

I don’t own individual stocks, and I won’t own them as governor. The only thing I am invested in is lowering costs for Ohioans. Vivek Ramaswamy has over $5 million invested in the data center industry and millions more in many other industries that Ohio’s governor would be in charge of regulating.

Back in 2019 right wing members of Shadow Cabinet undermined their party manifesto laughing at proposal to plant 2 *billion* trees A BBC local radio reporter tracked down a forester who'd personally planted 1million trees over 20 years So this new target can be achieved by 4 people working less hard

Wasteful density of planted trees & plastic (?) in top photo, possibly to reach grants, quota, self-satisfaction, work ethic, sales & tree-planting propaganda targets.

Half a million trees over three years across England is gardening - it’s an irrelevance. England doesn’t even have a credible landuse framework. We need to get past this gesture politics and focus on tackling the underlying landuse challenges - Defra have repeatedly ducked the issue.
