Re LRP: One Dean of Students made my life hell by siding with a psychopathic fuckhead who harassed me off campus + not support me staying in school. Thankfully, she died soon after. Another Dean of Students helped me return to school and graduate. So I personally know the power of those deans.

On the *same day* the Cornell Seven drugged and raped Jane Doe, Cornell banned four students (including the President of Cornell JVP) from campus for three years for nonviolent, pro-Palestine protests. The same Cornell officials let the rapists off with apology essays.

The main takeaway about the Lesbian bar drama (for me anyways) is there are individuals in leftists and progressive spaces who weaponize social justice issues to be abusive.

It seems like these betting apps want to treat bettors like high rollers in Vegas by making them VIPs. Incentivize the addiction with freebies and who doesn't like freebies? But very rarely is anything truly "free." I'm glad that this was more controlled than the other betting story (too gonzo).

The first time I saw this happen was with Marie Kondo when she suggested having just 30 books. People lost their minds and I believe this is partly generational. It seemed like people younger than me (I'm pushing 50) were so alarmed or pissed off. But it's like uh, she's not making you do it!

- The majority of reading k12 sts do is for standardized tests. - That is THE context they get to know. - That context DOES NOT transfer to anything useful. That kind of reading also steals their ability to develop a readerly identity. Without that identity, of course they can't "read."

I have to mourn my life plans being delayed (how Saturn of me) but also reaching out to old friends who probably have long forgotten me. It's for business but still. Reaching out is one thing but keeping in touch is another. Will not be just me. I'll find new friends who want and do keep in touch.

When you see a story about a problem, where is the organizing, ask who is doing the organizing, is the story covering the organizing? Ask where the most vulnerable are in that organizing. Ask if their leadership and struggle are mentioned at all. Ask what work that story is doing for the organizing.

My mom was a volunteer in the Black Panther breakfast program, which importantly was a grassroots effort that the community organized for itself, not because people swanned in and said here's a check, do something nice with it, clean up your community The community was fighting for itself

My mom, my uncle, my grandmother, and my grandfather all taught in Brooklyn public schools. And for people familiar with my mom's work, you might not know that she got her start as an organizer because she and the welfare moms whose kids she was teaching organized together for education justice.

Yes! Solidarity in word and in deed. It's so interesting how we still have this belief that if you're making more money, you're smarter and wiser Leon Musty is living proof of how wrong that paternalistic, classist bs is. We are not England. We have no "betters" here.

That's not an attack on fellow white collar folk, that's just an honest assessment of what people are often doing I think a lot about what I heard Dean Spade once say which is that when you put vulnerable people at the center you basically can never go wrong

The people who were killed by these systemic attacks and systemic failures were the ones who were doing radical things like organizing poor communities to fight for resources instead of waiting for noblesse oblige and hand me downs from the upper middle class and the political class

We have a commentariat class that spends a lot of time foisting revisionist history of 20th century Black liberation/civil rights struggles onto us and getting away with it because a lot of the people who would correct them died before their time thanks to cointelpro, the "war on drugs," & AIDS

I read the NHJ NYT essay and I went faced similar choices but my mom and I chose differently. What strikes me is how American individualistic it sounds while saying that it's for the collective good. I saw no other parents from their child's schools. So paternalistic and steeps in class guilt.
