Good morning, everyone!

@vjoshuaadams I'm glad you didn't go through the seppuku attempt. We need you!

I believe what Tyler wrote is true. But it is not an accurate rendering of what has happened in large academic departments in major state and research universities, thus encouraging, in its own way, a distorted picture.

[V. Joshua Adams @vjoshuaadams]

Sweeping generalizations like this are false outside of the most rarified institutions. But nobody in the press seems to care what academia is actually like at most places.

@vjoshuaadams Be sure to give him back his jacket and shoes, or else he'll be in big trouble with Mother Rabbit.

“Predominantly taxpayer-funded revenue streams” meanwhile my public R1 employer gets *ten percent* of its budget from the state.

When people talk about the recent “politicization” of the University, I recall my uncle Jim, who complained (in the 90s, tho it might as well have been the 60s) that the Jesuits were “too liberal”

Class A outfielder Alexander Frías and Double A outfielder Josiah Ragsdale are coming from Milwaukee to St. Louis in the return, per a source. Both considered top 30 prospects.

NEW: I've heard your pleas.

I broke down, in writing, the mysterious August 3 deadline and how it means nothing in the Mitch McConnell saga.

[Andy Beshear @AndyBeshearKY]

I know there are a lot of folks wondering about the significance of August 3 regarding a potential Senate vacancy. I want everyone to know that this date has no legal impact on my options should there be a vacancy this year. Worth a reminder, right now, there’s one less vote for the SAVE Act, Trump’s war with Iran, or the potential replacement of a SCOTUS justice.

[olivia krauth @oliviakrauth]

again august 3 ain’t a thing y’all!

people are like “self-reliance!” then cede agency to a robot

[James Surowiecki @JamesSurowiecki]

This entire story is Trump's presidency in a nutshell: the DOJ brings totally baseless charges against an ordinary citizen in order to satisfy Trump's narcissistic delusions, and then, after having wreaked havoc on the guy's life, says "Never mind." Utterly pathetic.

[V. Joshua Adams @vjoshuaadams]

Some nice news for that Vincent guy

[CNN Breaking News @cnnbrk]

The Justice Department is admitting that a $14 million renovation on the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool in Washington, DC, was flawed, and is dropping the criminal case against a former Olympian that accused him of damaging the pool, according to a new court filing. https://t.co/ZvFnQUocq4
