When my father was faculty at Cornell he was stopped by the police chief in the street & asked who he was & where he was going. When he balked at the fact that no one but him, an Arab man, was being asked, the chief said “I’m just protecting students” Same guy failed to investigate 7 rapists.

Opposing military aid to Ukraine is not a ‘non-violent’ position, it is an explicit selection between the two available positions, both violent. You can’t say ‘we oppose Russia’, without then explaining, with what?

Earlier this week, I agreed to interviews with two USA Today journalists. They wrote fantastic articles about the Cornell case that I'm proud to have been a part of. What I did not know is that their employer considers interviews to proprietary and opens up recordings to be used by any journalist.

Brave young women who understand they will have to protect each other, showing solidarity. So many of their male classmates, their university staff, cops, lawyers and local prosecutors have turned out to be rapists or rape enablers, apologists & bystanders. #waragainstwomen #cornell

Like within the furry community the majority of members consider themselves queer and there are a lot of trans people. Linking expansive gender expression to inability to do professional work is the goal to keep trans and gender diverse people out of public life.

Its actually really bad that a U.S. senator is linking being trans to being a furry and that if you are a furry having a professional job you are endangering Americans.

One of my favorite cases of someone being Wrong on the Internet was a very earnest, very confused vegan who was telling people how cruel honey is; and it eventually turned out they thought honey was made by putting bees in a centrifuge and spinning them around until they threw up.

If you mention suicide, people might kill themselves!! Okay cool so let’s turn it into a weird perverse social taboo and create pseudoscientific guidelines to ban media mentioning it in a direct way, that sounds healthy. That will make people feel much more comfortable talking about it
