This #SCOTUS opinion in #CastroHuerta is an act of conquest. Full stop. The right and power of tribes to rule themselves is being dismissed in favor of state power. Tribes are…I can’t even write it…part of states.
i can't tell you how easy it is to mash together voter registration data, location data, and like, your credit card history in order to figure out who's buying misoprostol, who's walking into a clinic, and who's voting pro-choice. and how *profitable* it is, too
“It wasn’t until 1979—a full six years after Roe—that evangelical leaders..:seized on abortion not for moral reasons, but…because the anti-abortion crusade was more palatable than the religious right’s real motive: protecting segregated schools.” politico.com/magazine/story…
Roe v. Wade is based on the 'right to privacy.' If the majority opinion by SCOTUS suggests that the constitution does not protect the right to privacy... that affects a WHOLE lot of other decisions. Buckle up - this is the beginning of a lot of potential ugliness. A thread.
Important news in these dark times — the most wholesome contest on the Internet just got that much cuter.

It’s wild that the COVID response for tenure and promotion processes seems to universally be “you can choose to delay tenure and lose out on substantial lifetime income” rather than “we are modulating our expectations in response to global catastrophe, here’s how.”

I don’t talk about this often with those outside of my family. But the Olympics have brought surfing onto the “world stage.” So let’s just say it: professional surfing is built on a culture of exploiting Native Hawaiians. 🧵 hawaiipublicradio.org/local-news/202…
I wonder if the people complaining about a teenage pop star’s shoes have considered that they were not the target audience for her vaccine endorsement.
ah i see the supreme court has once again decided that the 15th amendment doesn’t really count
It frustrates me when my accessibility tests fail because of a third-party service I'm forced to use, especially when I reach out to ask for a fix and they say "Seems like you need your own custom solution!" Accessibility shouldn't be bespoke. It should be the standard.

Such a great conversation in @maya_hobscheid and my session at #loex2021 — I’m grateful for everyone’s willingness to chime in over chat and reflect on their assessment practice with us!
I just discovered that my name was spelled correctly in a document I didn’t make, and it genuinely made my morning. So, if you were wondering if it’s worth the two seconds to check the staff directory when you’re not sure how a colleague spells their name, the answer is yes.
"White participants preferred universities with statements that stressed practical benefits of diversity. Black participants preferred universities with statements that stressed moral issues." Important takeaways for developing diversity plans + policies: insidehighered.com/news/2021/04/1…
In general, we’ve been taught to prioritize certainty and be uncomfortable with nuance. But the reality is that people and their feelings and interests are complex and varied. It’s one of the best and worst things about UX work: we don’t always have the whole answer.
It is IMPOSSIBLE to see these stats and not reflect on the privilege required to succeed in the library field. #serviceceiling
