Engineering/STEM Education folks: A made a thing - list of EER/STEM Ed annual conferences that actually exist and peer-review papers. Maybe it's useful to you. Please correct things, add conferences and info, and share it! https://t.co/MtuQlGTZvh

Right so, “resist” means *don’t* follow fascist orders.
Don’t take the art off the walls.
Don’t delete the website.
Don’t open the dams.

Play dumb. Ask for clarity, repeatedly. Lose the email. Misplace the keys. Stall. Ignore. Forget. Crawl.

You are the line, you hold it.

LA says fuck ICE 🗣️

@shivlestat @moominmartha Maybe best scene in the history of television

This country is a hellscape: Imprisoned teenage boys & young men 18 to 24 are being used to battle the wildfires. 95% are Black, Latino, or Filipino; earn between $2.20 & $4 per hour, plus an additional $1 an hour when they’re actively fighting fires

Climate scientist Peter Kalmus (@ClimateHuman) talks about leaving Los Angeles two years ago due to the risk of climate-fueled wildfires. He says the devastation unfolding in Southern California now is even worse than he feared and warns, "This is still just the beginning."

This went out to the entire county. In 15 minutes, my spouse and I got our 7 week old baby, two disabled parents, and 15 year old dog packed and out the door. Incompetent idiots, causing panic in already panicked realities. So fucking tired right now.

Great, now Los Angeles is sending accidental “false alarm” evacuation notices to millions of people.

Scared the shit out of me.

This is such good reporting from the @harvardcrimeson:

There are about 27,000 high schools in the U.S.

Over the past 15 years, 1 in 11 students at Harvard have come from just 21 high schools.

So 9.1% of Harvard students come from 0.07% of US schools. @nytdavidbrooks

[Dr. Trevon D Logan @TrevonDLogan]

The real story is not Michigan’s DEI offices, it’s the fact that ~10% of Michigan’s students come from the top 1% of the income distribution, 66% of students from the top 20%. Michigan is the LEAST socioeconomically diverse highly selective public university in the United States.

@Pinolero1986 Same. Spent over a month in Sweden each of the last few years. The difference is incredible (and I’m an IBS sufferer so changes are so obvious). We have shit in everything here that is simply not allowed in other countries.

I am a professor and I really like doing teaching, research, and service work. But sometimes I feel like most of what I do is actually not teaching, research, OR service. It is emails and paperwork. Gah.

We really have to ackownledge that “not enough time to read” is part of the THEFT built into capitalism.

[Zachary Levenson @grundrza]

Routledge apparently unpublished this book due to a legal threat from Boaventura de Sousa Santos, accused under a pseudonym in 1 of the chapters. Since its publication, at least 2 more women have come forward, claiming similarity to the case described. Sick stuff from Routledge.

Ok, Columbia is no longer a reputable university.

My survey of worker leaders found that Black Lives Matter was the social movement that worker leaders most cited as a "major" influence on their decision to unionize in 2022

Anti-racist activism *can* spur unionization 👇

RIGHT NOW!! 🚨

Cal State LA students are staging a sit in the Student Services Building where President Eanes continues to dance around and repress the divestment demands!

Join us NOW in demanding action from Administrators complicity in genocide!
