It's hard to overstate how bizarre it is to see this much criticism of Florida universities coming out of the governor's office. Floridians LOVE their university system. It's a point of pride.
Oh dear. I’ve rather put my foot in it. In a column I wrote about Meghan, I made a clumsy reference to a scene in Game of Thrones and this has gone down badly with a great many people. I’m horrified to have caused so much hurt and I shall be more careful in future.
BREAKING: the House just passed legislation that gives the people of Puerto Rico the power to decide between statehood, independence, or free association with the U.S. Do not forget that 191 Republicans voted against giving Puerto Ricans the right to self-determination. Shameful.
For the first time in our nation’s history, the U.S. recognized its role as a colonizing force. The Puerto Rico Status Act lays out a process for the Island to decide its own future. It doesn’t favor statehood, independence, or free association. It allows Puerto Ricans to choose.
I think most ppl know this but IF YOU SEE OR HEAR SOMEONE BEING EVEN A LITTLE HOMOPHOBIC/TRANSPHOBIC/RACIST shut that shit down. It will be awkward. You will not look cool. Let them know your presence is not a safe space for that shit. We have to keep us safe
