Spain Denies U.S. Military Use of Its Bases for Iran Attack

"Spain’s defense minister, Margarita Robles, said on Monday that while there was an agreement with the United States on the use of the bases, Spain believed it only extended to use within the framework of international law."

Trump teaming up with Israel on this makes it impossible to ignore how disastrous Biden’s “bear hug” policy was in the moment, through the election, and even moreso in hindsight.

i’m tired of every paper (even critical ones) on societal impact of AI starting by both-siding the “benefits” and risks/harms of AI

in academia, i would like us to arrive at a collective reckoning that we don’t need to play both sides. it's totally legit to clearly state just the harms. period

INBOX: @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social dropped a 90s sitcom-themed video endorsement of @bradlander.bsky.social, specifically calling out AIPAC's influence:

Resilience, ridicule guarantee hate group’s flop at D.C. anti-abortion march When 120 white nationalist Patriot Front members descended on Washington, D.C., they were met by counterdemonstrators and clown music.

NEW, from me: I talked to people who shut down Patriot Front's rally in D.C. last month.

Counter-demonstrators made it impossible for PF to produce propaganda and recruit at the March for Life rally. The clown music set the tone.

It's not a time for speeches or hand-wringing but for collective action at the state level. This will not end with Minnesota.

Faculty have incentive to invest most of their mentoring in students who they perceive as needing little help to succeed in "elite" academia, because the less help their students need, the more energy they can devote to their research (and the more their students can contribute to their work). 3/

Take "elite" academia's culture of cruelty, which stems from the fact that faculty rewards for research far exceed those for teaching/mentoring, especially at the PhD level where students don't pay tuition. In that context, faculty have incentive to be sh*tty mentors, except to a few "winners." 2/

Lawrence Summers Will Resign From Harvard After Epstein Revelations

I'm glad to see accountability for academia's bad apples. But I also hope that resignations like this one won't be the end of the story. Because we still need to reckon with how the structures and cultures in "elite" academia have created ripe conditions for rot. 1/🧵

"That's illegal" is very helpful. It gives people a reason to call their congresspeople and demand it be reversed.

"They'll just break the law anyway" isn a #loserpost

Her community rallied so fast and so diligently. This is a victory to uphold and celebrate. Reminds everyone that it's worth fighting back.

"To echo Malcolm X, these monstrosities should be stopped by any means necessary," writes @willbunch.bsky.social about the Trump regime's plans for a concentration camp network as part of its mass deportation infrastructure, something ICE’s Todd Lyons likened to "[Amazon] Prime, but w/human beings.”

The Trump administration confesses to plans to rig the elections

As strike deadline looms, politicians and faculty offer support to graduate student union If a strike is called, graduate workers would begin picketing at 9 a.m. next Tuesday. 

"As Penn’s graduate student union finalizes preparations for a potential strike on Feb. 17, support from local politicians, faculty members, and undergraduate students has intensified."

Let’s remember to thank all the EBM gurus and “medical conservatives” who elevated MAHA to power.

Cancelled RCTs is their legacy.

This is the second account - the first being in Chicago - of DHS agents mass detaining people and then *sorting them by race*.

I have been pleasantly surprised to hear people openly talking about the end of institutional life as we know it (it’s been over. We’ve been living and working in zombie institutions for three decades now) and instead of collapsing at the thought they’re like okay let’s rebuild but better. More.

SAVE Act aka “show your papers” law

If you don’t have a passport or access to your birth certificate, you’re not alone. About 21 mill Americans could be blocked from voting, just like you.

Why are Trump and Republicans pushing this? Because they do better when fewer people vote.
