In his response to CM's symposium on _Hope in a Secular Age_, @dnewheiser writes, "By sustaining affirmation while facing uncertainty, hope sustains social movements that resist authoritarianism with creativity and courage."

The FL Legislature is considering a union-busting bill that would make it harder for teachers like me to serve our students. This bill is unconstitutional and unamerican! #VoteNoOnSB1296

MUST WATCH: @CBSMiami investigative report gets to the truth behind SB 1296. This bill is not by or for Floridians, but out of state interests dead set on erasing working families constitutional rights to collectively bargain and speak for themselves! cbsnews.com/miami/news/gov-d…

I made a comic about why you should be masking in 2026 (spoiler: it’s to protect yourself and your community)

I will simply never recover from reading this sentence:
"Since Georgia implemented work requirements in 2020, they have spent twice as much on Deloitte consultants and administrative costs as on healthcare for people."

“Critically discuss Emmanuel Levinas’ philosophy of the face (臉) and the other.”
Not something one might have expected to find in this week’s GSAT national Chinese language public exam in Taiwan (broadly equivalent to SATs and A Levels).

just got out of an uber. the driver was telling me how he has to work 16 hour days, seven days a week, at two different jobs to afford rent. he doesn't have healthcare and he worries about retirement. "i would feel a lot better if we owned greenland," he told me. then he cried.
