President of the University of Chicago with the best statement yet on the protests: “I believe the protesters should also consider that an encampment, with all the etymological connections of the word to military origins, is a way of using force of a kind rather than reason to…
New paper from Norway: Banning smartphones in school - significantly decreased doctors visits for psychological symptoms and diseases among girls - reduced bullying among both genders - improved girls’ GPA and attendance rates - largest effect sizes were among the poorest kids
“Full time” college students spend less than three hours per day in class or doing homework. A downstream consequence of the marketization of higher education — the customers are getting what they want and what they want is easy classes. slowboring.com/p/college-stud…
Seems the @statesman editorial board thinks Robbery is a non violent crime. Here is the definition straight from the penal code: •Robbery (Penal Code 29.02) involves Person in the course of committing theft with intent to obtain or maintain control of the property,…
She jokes. But this is literally why I don't like using data of "reported crime" (except for shootings and murders). Because "reported" crime, like traffic citations, can be very depending on actual policing.

@Chris_arnade I'm super perturbed by the implication that poor people's quality of life isn't harmed by seeing open air drug use. I grew up in Sec 8 and we stopped playing outside in our own neighborhood because of it. Guess we weren't worthy of physical and emotional health and wellbeing.

-12.3 - Dortmund's Gregor Kobel has conceded 32 goals (exc. own goals) in all comps in 2023-24, 12.3 fewer than expected according to Opta's xG model, which is the best ratio among goalkeepers in the Top 5 Euro leagues. Wall. 🧤Kobel -12.3 🧤Donnarumma -10.7 🧤Chevalier -10.6
"I personally would like to see a system where EMTs respond [to gunshots]," the mayor said Wednesday. He can't be this stupid, can he? First of all, nobody is stopping EMT from responding except EMTs who don't want to be shot. Second, why does he not want shooters arrested?!

On the immigration deal. To liberals: If you want the legal right to asylum to continue existing over the long term, then you need to make affirmative changes to the system so that it can function and promptly reject bad claims. Otherwise the ultimate endgame is dark.

It is a real shame that tech ended up clustering in the most anti-growth region in the US. Seattle metro is fairly nimby but it is still way more open to growth than the Bay Area. In retrospect it would have been if the Bay Area nimbys won and no companies clustered here.

This law isn't about stops. Stops are already documented by NYPD. You can see at the data here: nyc.gov/site/nypd/stat… This is about police abolitionists out to end policing by requiring cops to fill out a form almost every time they talk to anybody. It is a horrible proposal.

I will die on this hill: Manchester United Cristiano Ronaldo was far more enjoyable to watch than the Robotic version of Cristiano Ronaldo that played for Real Madrid.
🚨 USMNT international Luca de la Torre vs Valencia today. ☑️ 90 min ⚽️ 1 goal 🅰️ 1 assist 🔑 2 chances created 🎯 76% accurate passes 🔀 100% tackles 🔥 6 duels won ⚔️ 9 ball recoveries ✅ 8.7 rating on fotmob Masterclass. 🔥
This is disgusting. NYC cops issue each other "courtesy cards" that allow them to break traffic and other laws. AOT, reinforces the sense of impunity and "blue omerta" that account for so much bad policing. marginalrevolution.com/marginalrevolu…

@DKThomp The difference is that Paul is a true scientist, with actual bonifides and academic and scientific achievement, and probably should have been included in the the nobel prize for nanocrystals in 2023
@DKThomp @thomaschattwill University of Chicago president Alivisatos is unique among university presidents in having a brilliant mind and being an actual scholar. (Most university presidents are chosen for sycophancy, servility, comfort with duplicity, and match to DEI profiles.) x.com/r_h_ebright/st…
@TriggerLoop @HarmitMalik @BJ_Greber Academic administrators are hired for sycophancy, servility, and comfort with duplicity. One should not be surprised that they manifest servility and duplicity.
This is why it's good to give examples. No business, organization, or college can adopt, as a general policy, the principle that its basic functions can always be indefinitely suspended in the event that there's a moral crisis worth protesting. x.com/Y4N6gang/statu…
@DKThomp This is the same mealy mouthed mumbo jumbo capitalists use to crush labor protests or strikes. Or authoritarians use to crush protests around the world. It’s truly easy to label a protest you don’t like as a “disruptive” one

Reporter grills Columbia student after she demands the university help feed protestors occupying Hamilton Hall: "It seems like you're saying, 'we want to be revolutionaries, we want to take over this building, now would you please bring us some food'."
@BillAckman "Most notable among those concessions is a promise to offer full-ride scholarships to Palestinian students and guaranteed faculty jobs for Palestinian academics." Blackmail apparently works.
Incentives drive all human behavior. When you reward protesters who violate universities' codes of conduct and the law, you will get more protests and more bad behavior in the future. Northwestern Cuts Deal with Encampment Organizers, Establishes Full-Ride Scholarship for…

@CMZoQadri @CMChitoVela @RyanAlter For crying out loud, what is wrong with you? We have campus takeovers across the country and the school has limited resources to maintain control. Not sure if you hate the police or the Jews more. Perhaps one of the less antisemitic council members should have addressed?
@CMZoQadri @CMChitoVela @RyanAlter So Apd is supposed to ignore a request for assistance from another law-enforcement agency because you guys don’t like it. Grow up.
The victims of these 30 OD’s and 4 deaths were ALL HOMELESS
BUT WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO ABOUT DUNCE @CMZoQadri 1) enforce camping ban 2) time to give up on Housing First u cling on to, it has been an abysmal failure. This is not a homelessness epidemic but a drug addiction and mental illness crisis. Treatment first, Housing earned 3)…
We are closely monitoring this situation. @ATCEMS has been responding with a heroic effort, treating at least 30 patients and further distributing Narcan kits in the area. Please see the following directions from EMS, and call 911 immediately for suspected overdoses.
ZO truly lacks an understanding of how Government works in this state. If there is an interagency call in AUSTIN, then obviously the AUSTIN Police Department will show up when needed. I feel bad the City Attorney may need to explain this to him. #txlege
I'm dismayed to see APD on campus. Our tax dollars shouldn't be used to violate students' right to assemble. @CMChitoVela, @RyanAlter, & I have requested an executive session legal briefing on APD's role in the UT campus protests. We need clear answers on APD's involvement.
