lol I understand the spirit, but at the end of the day, the wealthy should just pay their fair share so that we can use the tax revenue to improve and build public goods.

This is to say: if you're an attorney who's hesitated to take on habeas cases because you think you lack the knowledge, or you're worried about whether you'll really help, I PROMISE you can make a difference. I'm just a dipshit with a 7-year-old laptop and a bad attitude. If I can do it, so can you.

I love teaching this class, and I love learning from all the fascinating people who take it.
If you've been thinking it seems interesting but maybe it's not for you... It is probably for you.

Graphic titled "Coffee Birds of North America", with seven birds and corresponding coffee colors going dark to light, right to left: Common Black Hawk (very dark brown), White-faced Ibis, Long-billed Thrasher, Marsh Wren, Cedar Waxwing, White-winged Dove, and Barn Owl. Sources for photos are below. The background is a lightly-textured pale aqua.
Finally, a simple way to describe how much milk you like in your coffee! Mine is a waxwing 🪶🐡

Is it by Sandra Boynton? That one's a big hit in our house
Lol that's also where my grandparents met, a few years earlier
“UCLA neuroscientist Maryanne Wolf has shown that deep reading, defined as sustained immersion in a text, builds the cognitive circuits required for critical analysis, empathy and perspective-taking in ways that skimming, scrolling and short-form video simply cannot.”
Like: men who I thought were very dedicated to science, investigation, journalism or any conceptually truth-seeking field, who dropped that pretence in milliseconds once someone gave them a software lying machine that mimics correctness and also gives them oozing compliments

Cats ok?
I put a screenshot of this on my linguistics discord group and the consensus opinion is [chef's kiss reactji]
So uh hypothetically if someone in Philly were living next to an empty row house would it be ethical/legal to toss a few of these over the fence into the yard? And how might one hypothetically get their hands on a few?
This post is going around again so I will add this excellent resource: leavesubstack.com
Omg that would be amazing
Lol I'm actually flying out there tomorrow. Will wave as I fly over you en route to Papua
Why you gotta attack me like this
I would pay for a bug tour of your backyard.
Market the no internet part as a chance to unplug and get in touch with your inner self and you can double the price

Begging my comrades in IL to stop this.
Realizing I should include the main things you should do to support native bees/other insects
1) Plant native plants
2) Don't use pesticides, and tell your friends and neighbors to stop using pesticides
3) Leave fallen leaves in the winter
4) Leave dead stems over winter for overwintering critters
3) Try not to fall behind (We assign weekly homework for a reason.) 4) Go to your instructor's office hours. We're there to help. (This should probably be higher in the list.) 5) It's very unlikely you'll be able to do extra credit work to make up for work you have missed or did poorly on.

Then I remembered that Apayauq Reitan has a documentary about being trans and mushing and it's beautiful.

I keep thinking about how so many global conflicts boil down to one thing:
White people don't know how leave people alone. That's it.
I can’t emphasise leading w/ empathy for civilians *everywhere* on a day like today enough.
The first casualty here in the UAE, where I live, is an Asian civilian at a residential building.
Many Ukrainians, Palestinians, Iraqis, Syrians, Sudanese & other war-traumatised people live here.
