Found the email I sent when I got accidentally added to the faculty listserv of an orthopedic surgery clinic and nobody would remove me so I sent this email to all faculty/staff/med students and they removed me almost immediately
Hello Bone Colleagues, 
I have invented a new type of ankle and I'm very excited to show it to you. Early raccoon trials suggest a 60% increase in scurrying speed and dramatic increases in fine motor banditry. I know we are not supposed to create super raccoons, but I think you'll change your mind and professional ethics when you see how cute they are. I believe we are on the cusp of a new era in advanced human scurrying because if medical science has taught me anything, it's that improvements in raccoons correspond 1:1 to improvements in humans.

There a straight line from Trump’a grab her by the pussy” to the Cornell rapists “free pussy” texts. Frats have been cesspools of harassment and rape long before this, but there’s a generation of boys that grew up learning that Trump and creeps like the Tates are role models to emulate.

When they're not financially and socially obligated to get married to men, then the bar for building a life together is "do I enjoy this person? will I be spiritually and emotionally healthy in a relationship with them?" Apparently young men are bewildered by this new standard

Even more than divorce this reminds me of shifts around dating & marriage. Women seem more comfortable staying single and have a higher bar for relationships with men.

You often hear that clean energy is not replacing fossil energy, only adding to total energy, and thereby not reducing emissions. ("There is no transition," they say.) It's nonsense. Read this post from @zekehausfather.com about how much FF has been displaced by renewable energy:

What if the world hadn't built wind and solar?
Clean energy does not simply “add to” global energy use; it displaces fossil sources that would otherwise get built.

The thing to keep in mind, if rapists playing victim ever sounds plausible to your ears, is factors like these: 1) They were bragging about it before the report, 2) didn’t want to report anything until after a victim came forward, 3) disregarded being told to stop by the victim, and/or 4) provided

You’d think this is so ludicrous as to be unserious, but this is a classic DARVO tactic that abusers use, including in legal and personal contexts. My ex (also frat) tried this exact thing when I reported him to the campus, and before that in Title IX awareness training, male students asked if they

Policies banning trans people from bathrooms would not have stopped this. What he did was blatantly illegal already. He was arrested and charged. But somehow, Rowling wants to blame the actions of a cis man on trans people.

Justice Alito devotes an entire chapter of his new book to the emergency docket—and to responding to people like me (“the most prolific academic critic of the emergency docket”). As I explain over at “One First,” it … didn’t go well: www.stevevladeck.com/p/256-so-une...
In the pre-publication galleys to his new book, So Ordered: An Originalist’s View of the Constitution, the Court, and Our Country, Justice Alito spelled my last name inconsistently. This is, I suspect, the pettiest possible point on which to open in discussing a Supreme Court justice’s new memoir, and I would never have mentioned it except for the fact that inconsistency turns out to be the organizing feature of the chapter in which I (“the most prolific academic critic of the emergency docket”) repeatedly appear.The central inconsistency of Chapter 8, which is devoted to the emergency docket, is structural: Rather than tackle the subject holistically (as one might expect in a book), Alito mashed together the speech he gave five years ago at Notre Dame Law School with a “postscript.” The former was deeply flawed even at the time (among lots of other things, Alito repeatedly insisted that there was “nothing new” about the Court’s behavior on emergency applications during the first Trump administration and COVID); and the latter tries to move the goalposts away from the specific phenomena to which critics like me have actually objected.The result is to leave readers with a disjointed, inaccurate, and misleading sense of what the debate is even about—to say nothing of how the Court’s own behavior since September 2021 (including Alito’s) has only further undermined the already-flawed claims Alito made back then. Somewhere between the galleys of Alito’s book and the final product (which hits bookstores today), someone apparently figured out that my last name should be spelled the same way (and correctly!) throughout. The other, more significant inconsistencies were, apparently, harder to fix.

Article 1 is Congress. The presidency comes second, in Article 2, and explicitly requires the president to faithfully execute the law as passed by Congress. But that structure implies that the president can break laws without consequence. Or, well, at least this one can. -Sam Alito, paraphrased

My latest cartoon for @newscientist.com
As we join the great theoretical scientist, he is deep in thought. So still, quiet and focused that he might almost be asleep. But inside that brilliant mind, what new idea is forming? What certainty is being meticulously interrogated? What ingenious theory is ready to change our world forever? (the scientist snores lightly) Ah, it seems he actually is asleep. And that's fine. Science is hard and not every day can be a success. We will come back another time.

I, a political animal, am therefore a man." Second panel, Plato responds "I feel like that's not a valid syllogism." Third panel, we see the bear enraged, threatening the school with a pillar.
