"We are certain that a nation as big as ours, which respects its diversity and stands for the value of inclusion, will open its legal gates of Marriage Equality to our children too." Powerful, compassionate statement from Sweekar, a support group of parents of LGBTQ+ children ❤️

No, your child doesn’t need to learn to code. It’s okay if they want to grow apples, fix plumbing, build buildings. But they need to learn about the impact of code on society, so they can navigate its increasingly (problematic) algorithmic infrastructure. nytimes.com/2021/01/02/opi…
Congrats to Snap Research Fellows of 2020. It was great to collaborate, chat and work with HCI interns who won the award. Kudos to @EllDagan (@ucsc), @prernachikersal (@cmuhcii) and @kous2v (@gtcomputing) - very well deserved!! research.snap.com/news/detail/20…
First map of 2020, my home county. Biden is the first Democratic nominee since Dukakis to hit 60% of the vote in Allegheny. Also the 1st time since at least 1964, and possibly ever, that Dems have carried McCandless, Franklin Park, and Upper St. Clair. Welcome to the realignment.
THIS.
Dr. Shyamala Gopalan Harris - International Student, immigrant, scientist, single mother, Indian-American, and the mother of the Vice President Elect @KamalaHarris. And Kamala Devi Harris - the first female, first Black, and first South Asian Vice President Elect!!! 🥳👩🔬👏
International students (incld. me) can finally focus on education and science, without having to deal with constant uncertainty and anxiety. We have a long way to go, but @JoeBiden and @KamalaHarris bring with them hope and the promise of a better tomorrow!

Dr. Shyamala Gopalan Harris came to the US as an international student too.

This Biden-Harris victory event truly struck all the right notes. Celebratory without gloating. Empathy without conciliation. Credit given where due. Mature, succinct, and specific about the work that now begins. And after the last four years... I appreciate that it was brief.
This is in Squirrel Hill, where just over two years ago a white gunman killed 11 in a synagogue after he went on a rant against refugees on a social media platform favored by right-wing radicals

No more Muslim ban No more refugee ban No more family separation No more leaving global climate agreements or the World Health Organization. Hard road ahead but there will be some big, meaningful wins right away.
“Madam Vice President” is no longer a fictional character. @KamalaHarris

Reporting on international ed, colleges & the economy, & other corners of higher edProfessors at CMU pay about $105k to the university to support a PhD student, but of that, we only get a $36k as a stipend. I'd love to see exactly where ~$69k disappears to, (rather than just "overhead") and I'd really like it if we got paid closer to the value of our labor.
@davidthewid At CMU, PhD students can't do TAs to cover tuition & stipend, which makes changing advisors tough financially. At Penn State, PhD students can do TA to cover tuition and can easily find TA jobs (as we're a large state univ). Changing advisors is a lot more common here, I feel.
'Women do most of the emotional labour, family admin, caring for grandchildren.' Human Rights Barrister ＠DrProudman, who sparked debate after she urged all pregnant women to give babies their surname, tells @IainDale that the 'burden' of parenting largely falls on mothers.
Still today women die from childbirth. Ask yourself, why are you giving your baby the surname of your husband? Why isn't yours important? @X poll showed 47% said babies should have their mum's surname. That's closer than I expected! I'm pleased to have sparked this change.
@dcsprior @DrProudman Ah yes because the mothers surname isn’t actually hers it’s her fathers but the fathers surname is his 🙄 Everyone inherits their surname.
@DrEmmaNash @DrProudman “I think it’s my choice what surname I give” Yes, that’s what the OP said: you can choose not to follow the patrilineal obligation.
@DrEmmaNash @DrProudman She didn’t say maiden name, she said mother’s surname. So if mother and father have different surnames, baby would get mother’s surname, not father’s. Obviously if mother and father have same surname, it would be odd for baby to have mother’s maiden name as their surname.
Today at my office I ran into a guy with a service dog getting off the elevator, and the dog beelined STRAIGHT to my side. Me: Oh, he’s so sweet!!! Can he tell if people are stressed? Person: He’s a PTSD dog. Me: 🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃
Yesterday, in High Court, overhead a couple of lawyers comment on a young woman advocate "Her hair colour and style costs 20k saar", "Can't she keep her gown in place", "Such a tight pant saar". No other empty chair, so suffered their anxiety about women, their freedom and choice
It is important to recognise that all people have the right to love and marry whomever they choose, regardless of gender or sexual orientation. Let's unite to create an #EqualWorld! #samesexmarriage #SupremeCourtofIndia
If an eminent lawyer tipped to be a judge suffers this hateful homophobia, imagine the average queer person.
There’s a video of a man dancing, allegedly me, that’s gone viral. a) it’s not me, b) mocking anyone this way is disgusting homophobia. Bigots may cloak their hatred behind justifications, but it remains vile. Shame on them
Mehta is every cishet who's looked at a queer couple and been like "so which one of you is the "girl"?" This is getting real ridiculous now innit
SG Mehta: Let's say marriage is permitted. They adopt and then someone dies. Father and mother is LGBTQ couple - who will be treated as father and who will be mother? This is a dilemma and cannot be foreseen by your lordships. #MarriageEquality #SupremeCourtofIndia
I lost my TV debate virginity discussing marriage equality on @ndtv last night. I argue that unless the Census enumerates queer people & represents our true numbers, people like @swapan55 will always imagine we are on the "fringe". Please watch! 🇮🇳🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️ youtu.be/PElcAO8ODM0
“I’m Attracted To My Sister”: SG Mehta Just Compared Homosexuality To Incest. WTAF scoopwhoop.com/lgbt/sg-mehta-…
Here the petitioners have invoked the right to equality, differential treatment on ground of sexual orientation and gender identity in access to the institution of marriage. This cannot be resolved by offering a few benefits to queer couples in terms of gratuity, pension etc.
“What we need is not law-abiding love, but love-abiding law.”
The real fear: gender roles would be blurred in family formation, child-rearing and society in general, signalling the decline of male privilege and hetero-patriarchy. They needn't worry so much. Hetero-patriarchy is alive and kicking even in countries that have #MarriageEquality
@DanielDiMartino @USCIS Actually, that's not accurate. Just non-profits affiliated with universities & non-profit research institutions. School districts are usually not cap-exempt (partly because USCIS fought in court to prevent that - great job @USCIS!). A huge percent of non-profits are cap-subject.
@DanielDiMartino @USCIS That would mean needed occupations lose out to higher-paying ones. A pediatrician loses out to a cosmetic surgeon. A high school math teacher is never going to win.
