1 year ago, today I was censored at SLU in Hammond, Louisiana. Read the letter: @FIRE to Pres. William Wainwright. And I don't speak for SELU. Not here or anywhere. The PDF is a doozy. All the details. @TalkLouisiana @wrkf thefire.org/cases/southeaste… #LaLege #Censorship #Libraries

Alabama Makes State Workers Say ‘Gulf of America.’ Colleges Aren’t Spared.
Republican lawmakers say faculty can only call it the Gulf of Mexico for “historical purposes” in academic courses. Journalists are constrained by the restriction, too. bit.ly/4i8ICY0
ALT A photo illustration of an old map of the southern United States of America including the gulf. It has “Mexico” crossed out and the replaced text now reads “Gulf of America.”

It's good to have Republican party leadership on the record. We become what we normalize.
Unearthed video of Trump's 2022 deposition:
Q: You said, "When you're a star they let you do it. You can do anything, grab them by the pussy." Correct?
Trump: Well, historically that's true with stars. If you look over the last million years, I guess that's been largely true, not always, but largely true.
Q: And you consider yourself to be a star?
Trump: I think you can say that, yeah.

I am so sick of my workplace (a university if you can believe it!) force-feeding AI into everything we do - "so that you know how to apply AI responsibly". Given this technology is based on IP theft and is an environmental disaster - how about not using AI...period!!

[nods] Integral ecology.
“Whenever we encounter obstacles to our mission, let us remember that there is one earth for all and a common human nature.
“The human being cannot be understood by separating what belongs together: body and soul, personal life and relationships, our relationship with others and with the environment.
“All form part of the unity of our existence. For this reason, cultivating the earth also means cultivating the humanity that inhabits it.” — Pope Leo XIV
