“This is not a dark chapter in Cornell’s history, it’s a morbid pattern” Editorial Board at The Cornell Sun absolutely fucking your shit UP www.cornellsun.com/article/2026...
We refuse for this victim to be reduced to just another story.
Cornell has failed to protect its students. Cornell has failed to address the growing issue of sexual assault on campus with its pathetic task force. Cornell has failed the student allegedly raped by those seven men at Chi Phi in October 2024. Cornell has failed her. Cornell has failed us.

To Matthew Ingalls, Jonathan Newell, Winston Lee, Gillio Lopes, Diego Sarabia, Scott Norris and Scott Kretzschmar: We know who you are and we refuse to let you benefit from this University's concealment.

Last night I knocked on the door of a woman who was moving into an apartment after months of living in her car, homeless. She was setting up the place so her kid could be returned to her. We’re all one accident, layoff or crisis away from similar outcomes. What an honour to welcome her home.

Non-voters are called apathetic, but they’re not. they’re politically homeless and feel abandoned by the existing order. Fascism mobilizes them and gives their anger and ignorance a scapegoat. Turns humiliation into hatred. Explanation is not exoneration, but that’s how it happens.

It's really gross when creative people, especially ones who you expected better from, use AI in their projects. There SHOULD be a stigma to using AI shit if you're in the arts and possible hot take, I think that people who use it should be blacklisted from working in the arts.
