@MarkJacob16 Wtaf NYT. Thank you for covering this utter ridiculousness and journalistic failure. I continue to subscribe and I’m daily wondering why

Trump: “People don’t go to her rallies”

🤔

[Zahr Said @zahr_said]

@JoyceWhiteVance @TheRickWilson It’s such a predictable show of a particular kind of male privilege (or at least it codes that way to me in this context)—he always gets the last word, while she is somehow expected to play by the rules. Every damn time.

@david__simon @flohmann @howardknopf Big business here. Tons of copyright licensing through litigation style approaches with aerial photographers in particular.

@QueerAndBroken @von_froth @KatAMacfarlane Also for a laugh? Try actually filling your Rx. Fun times! Phone calls, drives to far off pharmacies that happen to have some this month, going without for days or weeks. Med scarcity anxiety. A dx that really gives you a competitive edge in time-starved law school. (Sarcasm.)

@anonmoll @von_froth @KatAMacfarlane Old and stuck in our ways. Or also, when we try to innovate, guess who revolts? Students! Even when we are designing from progressive, universal design, compassionate-to-students practices. I love my students! And/but many students like change just as little as some profs do.

@PamelaSamuelson No. And wow, those white ones are stunning!

Ok some important background/context on Fatah as a political party for those trying to make sense of what is going on…I’ll update this 🧵 if I think of any additional useful context.
1. Although this did not used to be the case, Pres. Abbas (the West Bank’s lackluster leader —of the Palestinian Authority) controls the Fatah party. They have tried to get him to step down for years & those that do are…silenced.
2. Abbas has been on the take from 🇮🇱 for years. (How else do his kids live lavishly abroad?). And Biden proposed that Abbas be the new leader of Gaza —so that should tell you all you need to know right there 🤣
3. Abbas has been known to be a 🐀 & cooperates & helps 🇮🇱 make arrests of any dissidents.
4. Abbas is extremely unpopular in the West Bank right now. Dec poll shows that 90% of those surveyed want him to retire. (see this article for explanations as to why: https://t.co/n3PZQwZLIT)
5. Abbas has refused to allow for election since he was elected in 2005. 1/n

@HoffProf I’m just here to say I’m sorry to hear that and it’s unacceptable. In solidarity with you.
