News hot off my email: Vanderbilt University DENIED my department’s recommendation to promote me to Full Professor. No explanations. Just like that. I feel unappreciated. This Associate Professor who is literally rewriting the textbooks is open to new opportunities now. Anyone?
Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito took a luxury fishing trip to Alaska with billionaire Paul Singer, whose hedge fund then had repeated business before SCOTUS over the years that followed.
Alito never disclosed the trip or recused himself from Singer's cases. (THREAD)

Here’s what I know to be true: Every person is a child of God and deserves to feel seen and loved for who they are.
To build a better Kentucky, we must fight for equality, fairness, and a more inclusive Commonwealth where all our people can thrive.
Happy Pride Month, folks. 🏳️🌈
Breaking news: Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) signed a bill into law Monday that would bar the state’s colleges and universities from spending money on diversity, equity and inclusion programs, and limit how race can be discussed in many courses. https://t.co/2rYz0r6leG
it looks like another lovely spring day to REMIND YOU DELINQUENTS TO STOP "RESCUING" BABY ANIMALS. THEIR MOMS ARE MOST LIKELY NEARBY SO JUST MIND YOUR BUSINESS.
FAWNS, DROP EM'.
BIRDS, LEAVE EM'.
RACCOONS, DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT.
ARMADILLO?¿? ARMADILL-NO.
I am honored to have been named the new poet laureate of Kentucky by Gov. Andy Beshear. As a writer who was raised working class and in trailers, as a questioning person of faith, and as the first openly gay poet laureate I will do my best to represent my place and my people.
Y’all take the time to listen to this hot mess. These guys sound more like Robert E Lee and his Confederate Generals than state legislators; trying to fire up the troops and each other about the righteousness of their immoral Lost Cause but then sniping at each other over the battle they just won because they realize they are losing the war.
Gov. Andy Beshear was the one who called his friend Tommy Elliott’s wife to tell her her husband was killed in the Louisville bank shooting. “Calling your friend's wife, who is also your friend, to tell her that her husband is gone is among the hardest things I have ever done.”
There are some people suggesting progressives should get the hell out of Tennessee.
Bless your ignorant hearts.
We aren’t going anywhere. This is our home. These are our people.
We’re going to stay and fight for our posterity’s future.
Senator Josh Hawley raised a fist in solidarity with January 6th attackers
Rep. Paul Gosar posted a cartoon video that depicted the killing of AOC
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene posted a video in which she said Nancy Pelosi was a "traitor" who deserved to be executed
George Santos lied about nearly everything he told voters about himself before he was elected
None of these politicians have been expelled from Congress, but two brave young men who spoke out against the gun violence claiming the lives of children in Tennessee were wrongly expelled.
We must make this moment count.
I no longer have representation as a citizen of Tennessee.
Taxation? No representation.
Public safety? No representation.
Voting regulation? No representation.
All matters civil? No representation.
I now live in a fascist state.
Tennessee Republicans just fucked up. Big time. And like every other cruel, intolerant, bigoted, authoritarian, & anti-democratic Republican fuck up of the past 7 yrs, this fuck up will hurt them politically. It will continue the shrinking of & ultimate demise of my former party.
