Louder in the back: lots of expensive programs (ahem, nursing) would not be financially feasible or viable without the humanities and social sciences. Full stop.

🧵Public participation in civic life needs to be preserved. In tonight's City Council agenda, there are two items that pertain to whether the Worcester City Council should vote to allow residents to file petitions ONLY THROUGH their city councilor.

There is no both sides to this one folks. The government is saying the senator “lunged” at the Secretary and did not identify himself. We have a video where we can see and hear the opposite.

“The girls are fighting” to describe Trump vs Elon is an insult to girls.

A hill I will die on. Literacy has always been determined by politics. Access to literacy has never been neutral. It’s intentionally been shaped by systems of power, privilege, and exclusion.

I've finally made it through my Nationalism class's case studies. Y'all . . . they overall did a great job. Lots of creativity, lots of thought. There were some who didn't turn anything in (which . . . was way more in number than any other semester). #HappySunday

German has two words for education: Erziehung and Bildung. Erziehung is goal-oriented pedagogy, and Bildung is individual improvement and expanding horizons. Erziehung without Bildung is sterile. Bildung without Erziehung is hermetic. Artificial Intelligence divorces the two.

I love my husband, but he just put a new toilet paper roll on the sink next to the toilet and the empty roll remains. . . He has chosen violence.

Deported is not the correct word. They’re not being deported out of the country and back to their home country. They’re being shepherded into a concentration camp where we’re being told they will not be allowed to leave.

Never forget that Israel bombed every single hospital, school, university, church, and mosque in Gaza, not to mention bakeries and life-sustaining infrastructure.
