The arrest and detention of Mahmoud Khalil—a green card holder whose wife is eight months pregnant—is a blatant assault on the First Amendment and a sign of advancing authoritarianism under Trump. He must be released now.

"We could have killed all the Jews in Germany yesterday, but we did not do it. The demonstrations in Franconia were, in general, disciplined, clear, and farsighted"- Julius Streicher, in a speech the day after Kristallnacht.

In moments of dissent, there are always those who rush in to score political points.

But this isn’t a moment for politics. This is a moment for clarity. So, let me be clear:

Peaceful protest is protected in America.

Violent protest is not protected. It’s against the law.

really slimy little insinuation about student protesters from the times, which knows *exactly* what it is doing here

Just a reminder that Jazmine Hughes and Jamie Kailes had to resign from @nytimes for condemning the genocide in Gaza but Michael Barbaro is still there after he tweeted a McCarthyist thread by the unhinged Shai Davidai smearing students and called it a “must read.”

algorithmic style does not age gracefully but dressing yourself based on a coherent reading of your social context and personality... does!

[christopher james @crosboph]

this writeup is the natural outcome of spending 5-10 yrs dressing based on "what is/are the cool brand(s) on tiktok/substack/reddit this month" rather than developing a personal style rooted in interests/social context/personality... eventually you feel jaded, old, and bored

A leading lawyer for the United Nations—with four decades of experience investigating violations of international law—has resigned. He called what Israel is doing “a textbook case of genocide.”
